Professional Leak Detection Services in Leith

Properties around Leith mix older and newer plumbing — pipe age rarely matches the house next door. In Edinburgh and the Lothians we regularly handle hidden leaks and insurance-ready documentation when water tracks through older floors. Hidden leaks in Leith homes often sit under kitchens or in heating loops; we document findings for insurers when needed. Including work toward Edinburgh and Newhaven.

Thermal imaging and acoustic listening gear get used where safe; sometimes it’s a simple failed compression under a basin. Our engineers cover Leith and Edinburgh, Newhaven, and Portobello for professional leak detection services with the patience to prove the source, not just patch symptoms.

Recent leak detection work in Leith

A property in Leith needed Professional Leak Detection Services after the combi pressure dropped weekly despite topping up — the leak was hidden in a chase.

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: UFH stayed intact except for one tile line; they were happy with the surgical approach and the written test results.
