Ashley and Adam attended property. Work completed to a high standard. Workers were focused and consciousness. COVID aware.

Prompt response and making of appointments. Thorough and systematic. Very professional and personal manner. Solutions were stubbornly elusive but they pressed on without complaint until causes found. Showed impressive willingness to return to deal with further developments. They proved to be dedicated and committed to getting to the root of the problem. All at a fixed fee. We felt confident in leaving an obviously difficult situation in their hands. The two main people involved were Adam and Aaron who gave us a very good service.

Very grateful to Track-a-Leak leak detection who arrived in the 2 hour slot as expected. He was extremely polite, well mannered and thoughtful to upholding COVID restrictions and social distancing. He was very thorough and efficient in detecting the leak using various bits of equipment. To our surprise the leak appears not to be coming from where we thought it was so we’re relieved to have called the experts in and would highly recommend to others.

Stop Throwing Money at the Wrong Problem

When you’ve got a water leak somewhere in your property, it’s easy to end up chasing shadows. You might start by checking obvious places like visible pipes or radiators, maybe call a plumber to investigate, or even start lifting floorboards, hoping to stumble across the problem.

Just because you can’t see a leak doesn’t mean it’s not causing problems. Water has a way of finding the most inconvenient places to cause damage—behind kitchen units, under bathroom floors, or deep in your foundations, where you won’t notice until it’s too late.
