Leaky pipes often go unnoticed until damage is already done. If you’re seeing signs like rising water bills, damp patches, or reduced boiler pressure, you need to find a leak quickly. At Track A Leak, we offer professional leak detection services to help you pinpoint and fix the issue before it spreads.
Why Finding a Leak Matters
Leaks waste water, increase bills, and damage property. In the UK, over three billion litres of water are lost daily due to leaks. That’s roughly a fifth of all water supply. If you’re not tracking a leak early, you risk bigger problems later.
You should act as soon as you spot the signs:
- Damp spots on walls or floors
- Mould or mildew smells
- Cracks in paint or plaster
- Unusual sounds from pipework
- Constantly running water meter
Delaying action can lead to structural damage, electrical risks, and insurance issues.
What Track A Leak Does Accurate Leak Detection
We use thermal imaging, acoustic sensors, moisture readings, and tracer gas to find a leak. These methods locate hidden problems without tearing up floors or walls. This means less disruption for you.
Our tools work in all property types, including flats, older buildings, and commercial units. You get fast results and detailed findings.
Trace and Access Reporting
If you have trace and access cover in your home insurance, we provide the reporting you need. We give you written proof showing where the leak is and what caused it. This can support claims and speed up repair authorisation.
Start-to-End Help
We don’t just find the leak. Once located, we help you understand your next steps. This might include drying, plumbing repairs, or reinstatement. We also flag any mould risks and tell you what to do next.
