How can I tell if I have a hidden water leak?
Signs of hidden water leaks include unexplained increases in water bills, damp or discoloured walls, mouldy smells, reduced water pressure, or the sound of running water when no taps are on. If you notice any of these warning signs, it’s best to have a professional leak detection service inspect your property.
How long does a leak detection service take?
Most residential leak detection services take between 1-3 hours, depending on the complexity of your plumbing system and the nature of the leak. Once we locate the leak, we can often repair it during the same visit, though more complex issues might require a follow-up appointment.
Is leak detection covered by insurance?
Many home insurance policies cover professional leak detection services and subsequent repairs, especially if the leak has caused damage to your property. We recommend checking with your insurance provider about your specific coverage and requirements. Flowtec can provide all necessary documentation for your claim.
