From contact to coming to our home, diagnosis and having hot water again was excellent.

Coming back in a couple of weeks to change a couple of components. I would not hesitate to recommend.

I use Terrance Hughes & Sons to help maintain a property and the team has always provided quick and high quality work. Terry and Pavel are always on hand to provide me with support, including recently installing a boiler and carrying out the necessary inspections.

They complete work to a high standard, respect my tennants and focus on getting the job done. This helps me immensely because i trust them to do the work to my requirements. I highly recommend them and look forward to using their services in future.

My Aqualisa shower had not been working properly for some time. TJ Hughes fitted a new controller and diverter, and the shower now works perfectly.
Not cheap but much less expensive than Aqualisa’s repair charge, and less still than a new shower.

  • Leak detection undertaken by qualified and insured engineers

Do you have a hidden drip that you can’t see but know it’s there because of a higher water bill or a visible damp patch on your floors, walls or ceiling?  

Leak detection is finding where that leak is hiding using special tools and equipment. The procedure is swift, non-evasive and cost effective. 

Once the source of the leak has been established, a plan and price are put together to reach and repair the leak.

Don’t Ignore A Leak

If hidden leaks are left untreated, they can lead to a variety of problems, some of which can be quite serious:

Structural Damage

Over time, water leaks can weaken the structural integrity of a building. Continuous exposure to water can rot wood, rust steel, and deteriorate concrete. This can lead to costly repairs and, in extreme cases, dangerous situations, like weakened foundations and walls.

Mould & Mildew Growth

Moist environments are perfect breeding grounds for mould and mildew. These fungi can spread quickly in damp areas caused by leaks, leading to health issues, especially for those with allergies or respiratory problems. Removing mould can be difficult and expensive once it has taken hold.

Increased Water Bills

Even small leaks can significantly increase water bills over time. A small crack in a water pipe can waste a surprising amount of water.

Damage To Personal Property

Leaks can cause damage to furniture, electronics, and personal belongings. Water damage can ruin carpets, flooring, and walls, leading to expensive replacements and repairs.

Addressing leaks promptly is essential to avoid these problems and maintain a safe, healthy, cost-effective living or working environment.

How Leak Detection Is Performed

We use various methods to detect leaks, like pressure testing, thermal imaging, and leak detector machines. 

Pressure testing involves sealing a system and monitoring pressure levels to identify leaks. 

Thermal imaging uses infrared cameras to detect temperature differences caused by leaks, allowing for non-invasive inspections of large areas. 

Leak detector machines, either acoustic or electronic, listen for the sounds of escaping water or gas, pinpointing the leak’s location with high sensitivity. 

Each method has its strengths: straightforward pressure testing, thermal imaging allowing for quick, damage-free scanning, and leak detectors providing precise localisation, which is useful for hidden leaks. 

Our professional engineers combine these techniques for quick and effective leak detection.
