Recent leak detection work in Washington

Our engineers were called for Professional Leak Detection Services in Washington when a letting agent reported damp skirting in a tenanted flat with no obvious leak.

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.
