Leak Detection in Watford

Watford has every kind of house we work in: Victorian terraces around the town centre and Callowland, 1930s semis in Cassiobury and Oxhey, post-war estates in Woodside and Garston, and new flats along Clarendon Road and by the Junction. Each one leaks in its own way. Old terraces have lead or early copper mains under solid floors, the semis have decades of heating pipework buried in screed, and newer flats hide plastic pipework behind plasterboard where a single push-fit joint can drip for months.

In Woodside we traced a heating leak to a pipe hidden inside a wall using the thermal camera, which showed the warm pipe run clearly through the plaster so only a small section needed opening. That is how we work everywhere in Watford: thermal imaging first, then tracer gas or acoustic listening to pinpoint the exact spot, then a moisture check so the report shows the extent of the damage as well as the cause.

Being local means short travel times across WD17 to WD25 and no problem with permit parking near the High Street or the hospital, where we bring only what fits on a trolley. Every survey ends with a written report and photographs that your insurer will accept for a trace and access claim.
