Signs you may have a leak
If you’re experiencing any of the following, it could indicate a hidden water leak:
- Drop in water pressure
- Unexpectedly high water bills
- Damp patches, mould, or persistent moisture
- Constant sound of running water
- Boiler pressure repeatedly dropping
Why acting early matters
Finding a leak doesn’t mean you have to dig up floors, walls or driveways.
At Kurek, we use proven detection methods to pinpoint the exact location of leaks – allowing repairs to be carried out quickly and with minimal disruption.
Our approach avoids unnecessary damage, reduces repair costs and ensures the problem is resolved properly the first time.
How we locate leaks
If you’re experiencing any of the following, it could indicate a hidden waterWe use a combination of experience and specialist equipment to accurately identify leaks, including:
Acoustic listening – detecting the sound of water escaping under pressure
Tracer gas – identifying even the smallest leaks through surface detection
Pressure testing – isolating and confirming leaking systems
Leak correlation – locating leaks across longer pipe runs
Thermal imaging – identifying temperature changes beneath surfaces
Repaired. Reinstated. Reported.
Leaks don’t fix themselves and the longer they’re left, the more damage they can cause.
If you’re noticing signs of a leak, acting early can save time, disruption and cost.
We’ll find the issue quickly and help you resolve it properly.
Once the leak is located, we can carry out repairs where possible, provide clear guidance on next steps and minimise disruption by targeting the exact problem area.
