Leak Detection in Constantia

Constantia is a suburb of large, established properties, mature gardens, and long underground pipe runs, and that is exactly the kind of place a hidden leak can go unnoticed for months. Much of my Constantia work is tracing leaks on bigger properties where the water has a long way to travel and plenty of places to escape.

Hidden leaks on larger properties

On a big Constantia property, a leak on an underground supply line can run a long time before anyone notices, because there is so much ground for the water to disappear into. I have traced Constantia leaks to cold water lines feeding the house, to the pipework around hot water cylinders, and into roof spaces where a leak had already started causing damage. The larger the property, the more it matters to pinpoint the exact spot rather than dig speculatively.

High water bills in Constantia

A climbing bill on a large property is easy to miss and expensive to ignore, because the leaking water is billed at the City's highest step. I find the source precisely, using thermal imaging, tracer gas, acoustic equipment and pressure testing as the job requires, and document it so the repair is targeted and the grounds are not torn up unnecessarily.

Pool leaks in Constantia

Constantia properties often have pools, and pool leak detection is part of my work here. I test the full system and identify exactly where the pool is losing water, which is usually not where owners expect.

Why call a specialist

I find leaks and document them; I do not do the repair. That means the report you get is an honest account of where the water is going, with nothing added. Your plumber, or one I can refer you to, carries out the fix.
