Hidden leak investigation — Musselburgh

We recently attended Professional Leak Detection Services in Musselburgh after a ceiling stain grew under a first-floor bathroom — the shower had been “fine” for months.

Moisture mapping and acoustic listening narrowed the search to the shower waste route. A cracked trap union was the culprit; we replaced the union and resealed, with photos for the landlord’s file.

Result: The customer was relieved we hadn’t stripped the whole bathroom — they had a clear report, a fixed pipe, and realistic drying times.
