Leak Detection in Mill Hill

Finding leaks in Mill Hill homes

Mill Hill mixes a historic village core with large areas of 1930s housing and more recent developments. Older cottages and houses near the village can have pipework of varying age and material, while newer builds may suffer from poorly sealed joints or fittings that only show a problem after a few years.

Larger houses with long runs of pipe, outbuildings or garden supplies can lose water in places that are not obvious. If your meter is turning when nothing is running, the loss may be anywhere between the stopcock and the taps, and testing in sections is the quickest way to narrow it down.

We also help homeowners who have a damp patch and cannot tell whether it is a leak, rain coming in, or condensation, giving a clear explanation of what we find.

Problems we commonly investigate in Mill Hill

• Meter turning when nothing is in use

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.
