Not necessarily. We check the pipes, radiators and pump, and flush and balance the system before suggesting anything bigger. Often a few targeted changes bring it up to date.
It might be ground water rather than a pipe. We check the meter and the pipework first and say so plainly if the plumbing is sound, so you can look at drainage or damp proofing.
