What should I say about T M Hughes.
Firstly it’s a great company that do a great job at a fair price. Terry the governor came round 1st to view the job (replacing the boiler and changing the system from a pressure system to a combi system) and I received the price of the work to be done the same night, and was very happy with his work ethics and the quote I received. The work was carried out within a week by one of his engineers called Alex, who knew his job and carried out the work to the highest of standards. I could not recommend this company highly enough.
Thanks for a great job.
Atb, Mr S Randall.

I’m extremely happy with the boiler service carried out by Kai. He was very professional, kind, and polite throughout the visit, and his work was completed to a very high standard. Everything was left clean and tidy, which I really appreciated. Communication on the day was excellent, so the whole process was smooth and stress-free from start to finish. A great experience overall — I would highly recommend Kai and the company to anyone looking for reliable and professional service. Thank you!

Terry and his team (with a special mention for Pavell) did a great job of renovating our central heating system. They replaced two of our twelve radiators, a circulating pump and a valve. They then power flushed the whole system. In thirty plus years the system has never worked as well as it does now! They turned up on time, did the job in line with the estimate and provided great follow up to make sure we were happy. We will definitely be using them again.

Welcome to TM Hughes & Son Gas Services Ltd. We provide Leak Detection services in and around Romford.

Leak Detection is a proactive measure against the unseen damage caused by water leaks. 

What Is Leak Detection?

Leak detection identifies and locates leaks in plumbing and waste systems. 

This process is essential in residential and commercial settings to prevent water waste, damage to fixtures and fittings, structural damage, and potential health risks associated with unchecked leaks. 

Utilising a range of techniques and equipment, our professionals will pinpoint the exact location of a leak without requiring invasive measures. 

Where Can Leaks Occur?

Leaks in homes can occur in various locations, each presenting unique challenges. Leaks are often hidden and not easily detected.

Common areas include pipes in walls and under floors and external water pipes. The plumbing is under sinks, within toilets, and at pipe joints, where wear and damage can lead to leakage. 

Beyond plumbing, homes can experience leaks in roofs and ceilings, especially after heavy rainfall, as well as in basements and foundations due to cracks and poor drainage. 

What Damage Can Leaks Cause?

Water leaks can cause significant damage to various parts of a home, including floors, walls, furniture, fixtures, and fittings:

Floors

Water leaks can lead to the warping or swelling of hardwood floors, causing them to lift or buckle. In the case of carpets, prolonged exposure to water can result in mould and mildew growth, creating health hazards and an unpleasant, musty smell. 

Tiles may also become loose due to the deterioration of the grout or adhesive beneath them.

Walls 

Leaks will damage paint and wallpaper. In the case of drywall, water exposure can lead to swelling, discolouration, and eventual disintegration. 

Over time, chronic dampness in walls can also foster the growth of mould, which can be harmful to health and difficult to eradicate.

Electrical Fixtures

Electrical fixtures are particularly vulnerable to water leaks and can short-circuit, posing a fire hazard. 

Ceilings

Leaks from the upper floors can damage the ceilings below. Signs of ceiling damage include staining, bubbling, and, in severe cases, collapse.

Contact Us Today

Water leaks can create expensive damage to your home. It’s important to address leaks promptly to prevent damage and ensure the safety of your property.

If you suspect a leak in your home, please get in touch with us today. One of our engineers will arrange a visit, quickly establish the source of the leak, and promptly repair it.
