Leak Detection Done Properly

Margate properties can face coastal exposure, older pipework, rental turnover and holiday-let maintenance demands, so hidden water issues should be checked properly.

We help trace the likely source before decorating, repairs, drying or refurbishment work continues.

  • Hidden water leak detection
  • Emergency leak tracing
  • Thermal imaging and moisture checks
  • Tracer gas, acoustic and pressure testing where suitable

Not Sure Where The Leak Starts?

In coastal properties, damp and staining can be caused by several things, including hidden leaks, gutters, weather exposure, drainage or plumbing faults.

If the leak is visible and accessible, plumbing repair may be suitable. If the source is unclear, leak detection is usually the right first step.

  • Boiler pressure keeps dropping
  • Damp patches are spreading
  • Water is showing but no pipe is visible
  • You need findings before repair works

Leak Detection Methods In Margate

We select the most suitable leak detection method based on the symptoms, access and type of suspected pipework.

Thermal Imaging

Thermal checks can help identify temperature changes linked to hidden moisture, heating pipe leaks or damp areas.

Tracer Gas Testing

Tracer gas can help locate certain hidden leaks where water loss is not visually obvious.

Acoustic Detection

Acoustic equipment can help listen for leak noise through pipework, floors or ground where suitable.

Pressure Testing

Pressure testing can help confirm whether a system is losing pressure and narrow down the affected pipework.

Moisture Checks

Moisture mapping can help assess damp areas and identify how far water may have travelled.

Clear Reporting

Clear findings, photos where relevant, work carried out and recommended next steps can be provided where suitable.

Clear Work Reports For Proof & Peace Of Mind

Clear findings can support homeowners, landlords and holiday-let managers with records of the issue, investigation and recommended next steps.

Reports may help with insurance claim support, landlord records, tenant communication, proof of works and repair planning. Final acceptance is always down to your insurer, landlord, agent or claims handler.

Reports Can Help With:

  • Insurance claim support
  • Landlord and tenant records
  • Proof of works carried out
  • Photos and findings where relevant
  • Repair planning and next steps
