I wouldn't hesitate to recommend TM Hughes. The water from my bath and sink was draining extremely slowly. We had tried liquid drain unblockers but these had failed. After a visit from Terry and one of his fantastic plumbers our water now gushes away at a rate we've never seen before. A huge thank you to both of them.

Types Of Leaks

Properties in Maldon are susceptible to various plumbing and water supply leaks that would need leak detection services as these leaks are often hidden from view and difficult to pinpoint. The types of leaks typically found in residential properties include:

Pipe Leaks

Pipe leaks are common in older properties where the piping system may have deteriorated over time. This can include reachable piping and pipes hidden within walls or under floors.

Central Heating Systems

Central heating systems can spring leaks due to corrosion or failed components like valves, pumps or pipe connections.

Underground Leaks

These can occur in the water supply pipe between the street and the house. Such leaks are often invisible and can go undetected for a long time, causing significant water loss.

Leaking Radiators

In homes with central heating systems using radiators, leaks can occur due to corrosion, valve failure, or problems with the connecting pipes.

Appliance Pipes

Pipes that supply appliances that use water can develop leaks. These pipes are often hidden from view behind kitchen cabinets.

Roof Leaks

While not directly related to Plumbing, roof leaks can lead to water entering the property, especially in older homes or those with damaged roofing materials.

A Specific Approach To Leaks

Each type of leak requires a specific approach for detection and repair. 

For example, pipe leaks within walls may require thermal imaging or a leak detection machine. In contrast, simpler leaks within the Plumbing or central heating system might be more straightforward to spot visually. 

Our Experienced plumbers often start with a visual inspection to spot obvious signs of leaks, such as water stains, mould, or damaged flooring and walls and will inspect nearby water pipes. 

They may use thermal imaging cameras that detect temperature variations in walls and floors for hidden leaks, indicating potential moisture presence. 

Pressure testing is another technique for pressuring the water system, and the plumber looks for pressure drops to identify leaks. 

Leak detection machines that use sound waves to detect the sound of escaping water are employed. These advanced tools are handy for underground or concealed leaks, allowing plumbers to pinpoint the leak’s location accurately without removing walls or floorboards. 

This combination of methods ensures a comprehensive approach to finding leaks quickly and efficiently. Once the source of the leak has been spotted, we will quote you the repair cost.
