Professional Leak Detection Services in Gateshead
Professional Leak Detection Services in Gateshead (including Low Fell and Wrekenton): leak detection and hidden water tracing — Gas Safe where required, fixed quotes, PK Plumbing, 180+ reviews.

Gateshead work for us runs from Low Fell and Birtley through Felling and Heworth. Hills, post-war estates and denser terraces all behave differently — combis lose pressure on rises, older rad circuits run cold at the far end, and clay drains on slopes are a regular call. We price the job before we dig in and we test before we leave.
Recurring stains after “fixes” usually mean the leak wasn’t found. We’d rather spend time narrowing the zone in Gateshead and Low Fell, Wrekenton, and Felling than leave you with another ruined ceiling.
Our approach
For professional leak detection services in Gateshead, you want evidence — not a sledgehammer search. We isolate circuits, document findings for insurers, and open only what’s necessary once the leak’s pinned down.
Common questions in Gateshead
- Do you work on both sides of the Tyne from Gateshead?
- We cover Gateshead borough and link jobs with our wider Tyne & Wear team. You are not passed to a call centre.
- Can you help with blocked drains and smells?
- Yes. We clear blockages, jet when it needs it, and use CCTV if the cause is not obvious — better than paying for the same clear twice.
- Are quotes fixed upfront?
- Planned work gets a clear written scope. On diagnostic jobs we say what is included before we start so you can say yes or no.
Typical work we see in Gateshead
- Hill streets and terraces: pressure drops, slow heating loops, drains that play up on gradients.
- Clay runs on older estates — proper jetting, then CCTV if smells or repeats come back.
- Boiler jobs on busy Tyne corridors; we balance older rad circuits and test on gas before we go.

Pinpoint leaks found in Gateshead
A Professional Leak Detection Services job in Gateshead began when the homeowner noticed a warm strip on the kitchen floor and a creeping water meter — no visible drip.
Dye testing on waste ruled out the sink; listening gear found a slow leak on hot feed in the stud wall. We opened a minimal access, repaired, and left a moisture schedule for drying.
Result: Mould treatment could proceed knowing the water source was gone — they valued the clarity over guesswork.
