Beyond the Obvious: Finding Hidden Leaks in Complex Systems

Leaks aren't always easy to spot. They can occur in concealed pipework, central heating systems, or even underground supply pipes. Our experience allows us to tackle these challenges head-on. We're adept at tracing leaks through complex plumbing systems, using our expertise to overcome difficult access issues and pinpoint the problem's source, where possible without causing any damage.

Find the Source of the Leak: Our Comprehensive Detection Process

When you call INSTADRAIN, you're getting a thorough investigation. First, we listen to your concerns and gather information about the potential leak. Then, using a combination of visual inspections and specialised equipment, we systematically examine your plumbing system. This might involve checking pipework, examining joints, and using thermal cameras to identify temperature differences indicative of a leak. Our aim is a precise diagnosis every time.

Stop Water Damage Before it Starts: Proactive Leak Detection Saves You Money

Ignoring a potential leak, no matter how small, can lead to significant structural damage, mould growth, and increased water bills. Our comprehensive leak detection service helps you avoid these costly problems. By identifying and addressing leaks early, we help protect your property’s integrity and your financial well-being. Think of it as preventative maintenance for your plumbing system.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Drainage Questions

Answers to common questions about our Drainage services in North East

How can I tell if I have an underground water leak on my supply pipe?

Often, the first sign is an unexpectedly high water bill. You might also notice a patch of ground that's constantly wet, even when it hasn't rained, or you might hear the sound of running water when all taps are off. Low water pressure can also be a symptom.

What happens if an underground water leak isn't fixed?

Leaving a leak can lead to wasted water and higher bills. It can also damage your property's foundations, driveways, or landscaping over time. Severe leaks can even cause ground instability. Fixing it promptly is important to prevent further issues.

How do you find the exact spot of the underground water leak?

We use professional leak detection equipment. This includes listening devices that can hear the sound of water escaping the pipe beneath the ground. For longer pipes, we may use acoustic correlation technology, which helps us pinpoint the leak location very accurately by analysing sound waves.

Is finding a water leak a messy process?

Our goal is to find the leak with as little disruption as possible. We use non-invasive listening and correlation equipment first. Once the leak is precisely located, we only need to carry out careful excavation in that specific spot to access the pipe for repair, rather than digging up large areas.

What happens after you find the leak?

Once we've accurately pinpointed the leak on your external water supply pipe, we'll carefully excavate the area to expose the damaged section. We will then carry out the necessary repair or replacement of the pipe section. After the repair is completed and tested, we reinstate the ground surface.

Will you repair the water pipe once the leak is found?

Yes, absolutely. Our service includes both locating the underground leak and carrying out the repair or replacement of the damaged section of the external water supply pipe. We handle the job from detection through to ground reinstatement.

Does INSTADRAIN fix leaks inside my house?

Our expertise is in drainage and the external water supply pipe coming into your property. We do not carry out internal plumbing work such as repairing leaking taps, toilets, boilers, radiators, or internal pipework. We focus on the underground supply pipe outside the property boundary.

How long does it take to find and fix a water leak?

The time taken can vary depending on the complexity of the leak and access to the pipe. Finding the leak location can often be done relatively quickly using our equipment. The repair involves careful excavation and fixing the pipe, followed by reinstatement. We work efficiently to minimise disruption and get your water supply back to normal as soon as possible.

What is the cost involved in finding and fixing an underground water leak?

The cost will depend on several factors, including the complexity of locating the leak, how deep the pipe is, the type of ground, and the nature of the repair needed. We always aim to provide a cost-effective solution and will discuss the required work and costs with you before proceeding with the repair after the leak is located.

My water company mentioned a potential leak. Can you help?

Yes. If your water company has advised you have a leak on your private supply pipe (which is your responsibility), INSTADRAIN can help. We specialise in locating and repairing these types of underground leaks on external water supply pipes for homeowners and businesses across Tyne & Wear.
