Thermal & acoustic leak checks in Durham
Our engineers were called for Professional Leak Detection Services in Durham when a letting agent reported damp skirting in a tenanted flat with no obvious leak.
By isolating the mains and testing in sections, we proved the leak was on a flexible hose behind a cupboard — not the boiler. Swapping the hose stopped the pressure loss without touching the boiler casing.
Result: Mould treatment could proceed knowing the water source was gone — they valued the clarity over guesswork.
