Why hidden leaks are expensive
An invisible leak can waste hundreds of litres a day and cause structural damage before it is even noticed. The sooner it is found, the lower the water bill and repair cost. Knowing the early signs is essential.
The water meter test
Read your meter in the evening, making sure no appliance is using water, then read it again in the morning. If the figures have changed, it is an almost certain sign of a leak on your network. This simple test is often the first clue.

The tell-tale signs
Damp patches or stains on a wall, blistering paint, a persistent musty smell, abnormally cold or warm tiling (for a hot-water leak), the sound of running water when all taps are off: all justify a professional leak search.
Why call a professional
A plumber equipped with a thermal camera, tracer gas and acoustic gear pinpoints the exact source without needlessly breaking your walls or floor. You avoid long, costly blind work and get a targeted repair.
