Water leaks aren’t always easy to find. Many develop behind walls, beneath floors, inside ceilings or underground, where they can remain unnoticed while gradually causing damage. Professional leak detection combines experience with specialist equipment to accurately identify the source of a leak before repairs begin, helping reduce unnecessary disruption, avoid guesswork and protect your property from further damage.
At Elite Prime Plumbing & Heating, we carefully investigate your plumbing system using non-destructive leak detection methods, including thermal imaging, acoustic listening equipment, moisture detection and tracer gas technology where appropriate. Once the source has been identified, we’ll explain our findings and recommend the most effective repair solution.
Not all water leaks are immediately visible. Hidden leaks behind walls, beneath floors, inside ceilings or within concealed pipework can go unnoticed for weeks or even months, causing unnecessary water damage and increasing repair costs. We use advanced leak detection equipment to accurately locate hidden leaks, allowing repairs to be carried out before the problem becomes more serious.
Damp patches, peeling paint, stained ceilings or warped flooring often indicate a concealed water leak. Our engineers use non-invasive leak detection techniques to investigate walls, ceilings and floors, accurately identifying the source while minimising unnecessary disruption to your property.
Leaks in underground pipework or mains water supply lines can be difficult to detect without specialist equipment. We investigate external water pipes, underground services and mains supply leaks using advanced detection methods to accurately locate the affected area and help prevent ongoing water loss.
Hidden leaks within water supply pipes can reduce water pressure, increase utility bills and cause damage if left untreated. We carefully inspect internal and external water supply pipework to identify leaks, assess the condition of the system and recommend the most suitable repair solution.
A hidden leak within your central heating system can lead to pressure loss, reduced heating performance and damage to your property. We investigate radiators, heating pipework and associated components to accurately locate heating system leaks, helping restore the safe and efficient operation of your system.
Once we’ve accurately located the source of the leak, we’ll explain our findings in clear, straightforward terms and discuss the most suitable repair options. Our aim is to resolve the issue efficiently while minimising further disruption to your property.
Depending on the type and severity of the leak, the next steps may include:
