“I would highly recommend WOW Leak Detection Plumbing & Heating. They recently completed all of the heating and plumbing works for a domestic project for me, and I couldn’t be happier with the standard of work.”J MRead review by J M →
On a qualifying fixed price bundle or hourly investigation, if we cannot identify the source of a genuine active leak within the agreed investigation scope, you will not pay the investigation fee. See the No Find, No Fee terms before booking.
Terms apply. Rising damp, condensation, building failures & other non-leak causes are excluded because specialist testing & investigation time has still been completed.
Choose a leak detection bundle from £500 + VAT or a standard hourly rate from £100 + VAT. Your chosen option & scope are agreed before work begins. The fixed survey price does not increase simply because the agreed investigation takes longer. Repairs & reinstatement are priced separately.
We specialise in leak detection & are experts across plumbing, heating & drainage. We combine extensive system knowledge with specialist equipment to investigate the symptoms, locate the problem & explain the next step.
The fixed price covers the complete leak detection survey to locate the leak, using the appropriate combination of pressure testing, thermal imaging, moisture mapping, acoustics, borescope inspection, tracer gas analysis & dye testing. You receive clear findings & a professional written report. Parking, congestion & travel within our coverage area are included.
Repairs, materials, excavation, waste removal & reinstatement are separate from the survey. CCTV drainage surveys, power flushing & moling are separately priced services. All additional work is agreed before it begins.
