View Service →Common Signs You May Have a Hidden Leak
Hidden leaks can often go unnoticed for weeks or even months, but there are several warning signs to look out for. A sudden increase in your water bill, damp patches on walls or ceilings, or an unexplained drop in boiler pressure can all point to a potential leak. You might also notice the sound of running water when no taps are in use, or small areas of mould and mildew appearing in your home or business premises.
Outside the property, pooling water, cracked paving, or unusually green patches of grass can indicate an underground issue. Gas leaks may cause a distinct smell or hissing noise near pipework. Acting quickly when you spot these signs is important, as hidden leaks can lead to significant damage and higher costs if left unresolved.
