Detecting and repairing leaks for greater water efficiency

Many people assume that the responsibility for water leak detection rests with the supply companies, as ultimately the pipe networks and water supply are theirs to manage, control and profit from. However, this last point is one of the clearest reasons why you shouldn’t simply trust that suppliers will monitor and fix any leaks.

From a practical perspective, it’s simply not economically viable for the water supply companies in the UK to monitor all supply networks for leaks. When you add to this the fact that cutting out monitoring saves costs and the presence of leaks increases their profits, it is much more financially viable and advantageous to have a specialist team carry out the detection and repair work for you.

If you have any reason to suspect that a leak exists in the supply of water to your premises, then we are your best point of call for a fast resolution. While the supply company might take time to arrange an investigation and carry out any required repairs, it generally takes us less than half a day to detect the source of a leak, with repair work seldom stretching beyond another day further than this. When you are working with us you have the certainty of knowing that all leaks will be found and fixed as quickly and effectively as possible.

Having us investigate and address any water leak at your premises does not just prevent you from being faced with high bills. We will also prepare a full report on the leak. This important documentation may enable to you to make a successful claim for a refund from your supplier. If the water leak happened through no fault of your own, then you should not be expected to pay for the wasted water as a consequence.

You cannot afford to ignore the signs that your water supply is being affected by a leak, either financially or in terms of the potential damage and inconvenience. While ideally it would be their responsibility to ensure such matters are monitored and addressed, you cannot take it for granted that the water company will take care of it when you experience a leak. We make sure all leaks are detected and fixed swiftly, ensuring greater water efficiency in your property and protecting you from having to pay over the odds for lost water.
