Common signs of a water leak
Many leaks are not immediately visible. If you notice any of the following signs, it’s important to act quickly:
- Unexplained increase in water bills;
- Damp spots on walls, ceilings or floors;
- Reduced water pressure;
- Musty smells or signs of mould;
- Water stains or discoloration;
- Unusual sounds in pipes (dripping, running water);
Professional leak detection methods
We use advanced equipment to locate leaks with precision:
- Tracer gas detection – ideal for pinpointing hidden leaks;
- Thermal imaging (thermography) – detects temperature differences caused by water;
- Electro-acoustic detection – identifies leak sound patterns inside pipes;
- Video inspection (CCTV) – internal pipe inspection to confirm defects;
Pipe inspection and technical reporting
In more complex situations, we carry out CCTV pipe inspections to assess the internal condition of the system.
This allows us to identify structural defects, blockages or leaks and provide a clear technical evaluation of the situation.
After the inspection, the client receives a video recording and technical report, including observations, pipe condition and recommended solutions.
Fast intervention and permanent solutions
Once the leak is located, we act quickly to repair the problem and prevent further damage. Our goal is always to solve the issue at the source, avoiding recurring problems.
We also provide complementary services such as drain unblocking and septic tank cleaning when required.
