Leak Detection in Finchley

Finding leaks in Finchley homes

Finchley is made up of several distinct neighbourhoods, including Church End, East Finchley and North Finchley, with a lot of well-established housing: Edwardian and 1930s houses, mansion blocks and converted flats. Converted properties often have pipework shared between floors, so a leak in one flat can show up as damp in another.

In flats and maisonettes the first challenge is often working out where the water is really coming from. Moisture mapping and thermal imaging let us follow a stain back to its source, which can be a long way from where it appears, and give you clear findings that can be passed to a landlord, managing agent or insurer.

For houses, we regularly investigate leaks behind bathroom tiling, under kitchen floors and on the supply pipe running to the property, as well as damp that turns out to be condensation or a failed seal rather than a leaking pipe at all.

Problems we commonly investigate in Finchley

• Leaks between flats in converted houses and mansion blocks
• Leaks behind tiled bathrooms and shower areas
• Heating pipe leaks beneath floors
• Wet patches where the cause is not yet clear

What we offer

• Water Mains & Central Heating Leaks: Detecting hidden leaks in underground water mains, central heating systems, and pipework before they cause further damage.
• Internal & External Leak Detection: From leaks hidden in your walls to pipework buried underground, we locate the exact source so repairs can be targeted and precise.
• Damp & Wet Patch Investigation: Not sure if it's a leak, rising damp, condensation, or humidity? We identify the true cause, so you're not paying to fix the wrong problem.
• Leak Repairs: Where a repair is needed, we only excavate exactly where the problem is, no unnecessary disruption.

We use thermal imaging, tracer gas, moisture mapping, pressure testing, dye testing and salt analysis, choosing the method that suits your property. See how our methods work.
