"We had a persistent damp patch that another plumber couldn't find the source of. Fact Services came out to us in Dudley, used their thermal imaging camera, and pinpointed the hidden leak under the floorboards in minutes. Saved us from ripping up the whole living room floor. Outstanding 24/7 service!"

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about our hidden leak detection and non-destructive water tracing services in Wolverhampton & West Midlands

What is Trace and Access?

+

Trace and Access is a term used by insurance companies. It refers to the process of finding a hidden leak (the trace) and getting to it (the access). Most modern home insurance policies cover the cost of professional leak detection services like ours. We can provide the technical reports you might need to support your insurance claim.

Will you have to break my floor tiles to find the leak?

+

In almost all cases, no. Our thermal imaging and acoustic equipment allow us to "see" and "hear" through tiles, laminate, and concrete. We only need to remove floor coverings at the exact point where the repair needs to happen, rather than tearing up the whole room.

How do I know if my central heating is leaking?

+

The most common sign is having to top up your boiler pressure frequently. If your pressure gauge keeps dropping to zero every few days or weeks, the water is escaping somewhere. If there are no obvious drips from your radiators or valves, the leak is likely hidden under the floor.

Can thermal imaging find a leak in a cold water pipe?

+

Yes, but it works differently. While hot water leaks show up as a "hot spot," a cold water leak often shows up as a distinct temperature difference compared to the surrounding material. Our engineers are trained to interpret these infrared images to find the source accurately.
