Common questions
Leak Repair in Folkestone FAQs
Can you find and repair a water leak in my Folkestone home?
Yes, our approved engineers carry out leak detection and repair across Folkestone for all types of water leaks, including visible pipe leaks, concealed leaks behind walls or under floors, and leaking joints on heating systems. We use thermal imaging and specialist detection equipment where the source is not immediately obvious.
How do I know if I have a hidden water leak in my Folkestone property?
Signs of a hidden leak in a Folkestone property include unexplained damp patches on walls or ceilings, a water bill that is higher than usual without a change in usage, the sound of running water when everything is turned off, or a drop in water pressure throughout the property. If you notice any of these, it is worth having a plumber investigate before significant damage occurs.
How do plumbers find hidden leaks in Folkestone?
We use a combination of methods to trace hidden leaks in Folkestone properties, including thermal imaging cameras that detect temperature differences caused by escaping water, acoustic listening equipment that picks up the sound of water movement through pipe walls, and pressure testing to identify which part of the system is losing water. The right method depends on the type of installation and where the leak is suspected.
Will you need to dig up my floor or open my walls to fix a leak in Folkestone?
Not necessarily. Many leaks in Folkestone properties can be repaired with minimal disruption, particularly if we can pinpoint the source accurately before work starts. Where access is required, we aim to keep the opening as small as possible and make good where we have worked. We will always explain what access is likely to be needed before work begins.
What should I do if I discover a water leak in my Folkestone home?
Turn off the water supply at the main stopcock as soon as possible to prevent further damage. If water is near electrical fittings, turn off the electricity at the consumer unit too. Contain any water with towels or containers and call us. We cover Folkestone and can usually attend quickly for leak emergencies. The faster the supply is isolated, the less damage the leak will cause.

Professional leak detection and repair. Used proper equipment to find the source, carried out a lasting fix, and wrote a clear report for our insurer. Very helpful.
Really impressed with the leak detection. The plumber traced a slow leak behind the bath panel quickly and repaired it properly rather than just masking the problem.
Great leak repair service. Fast response to what was an urgent problem, the source was identified correctly first time, and the repair has held perfectly since.
