Water Leak Detection in Stoneleigh
In Stoneleigh, hidden leaks are often tied to interwar semi-detached houses laid out around the station, which opened in 1932, where concealed pipework and later alterations hide faults. We narrow the search before opening up, particularly in homes near Stoneleigh Broadway, Nonsuch Park and Auriol Park.
Stoneleigh sits between Ewell and Worcester Park, and its roads are mostly interwar semis that have been altered and extended over the decades.
Not every leak announces itself. Some show up as a stain on a ceiling, a damp patch on a wall or a floor that feels cold and soft. Others show up only on the water meter, or in the sound of water running when everything is switched off.

Leaks come from failed joints, corroded pipes, fixings that have loosened, and sometimes from past building work that left a pipe under strain. Roads beside Nonsuch Park and Auriol Park have mature trees nearby, and roots can disturb drains and underground supply pipes.

Yes. A kitchen or bathroom at the back of a semi can mean a long run from the boiler. We plan pipe sizes, routes and insulation so hot water reaches the new room properly.
Either you or your landlord. Tell us the address and the fault, and we will arrange access with whoever holds the keys and report back in writing to the person who approves the work.
Your road, which rooms are cold, the boiler make if you know it and what you have already tried, such as bleeding radiators. A photo of the boiler and any fault code helps us prepare.
