Water leak detection in Mallorca

It may well be. A simple check: close every tap and appliance in the property and look at the meter. If it's still turning, water is escaping somewhere in the installation and it's worth locating it soon.

That isn't the starting point. We narrow down the stretch with checks that need no building work and by running the installation with a camera. The whole idea is to avoid digging blind: if opening up is needed in the end, it's only where the fault is.

In domestic installations it's normally resolved in the same visit. On longer or buried networks with several possible stretches, it can take more time to work through.

Yes. It's a common case on country properties: it may be a crack in the tank itself, an open joint, or a loss in the outlet pipework. We check both the tank and the pipework to tell which of the three it is.

We check the pipework and associated drainage, which is where a good share of losses originate. If the problem is in the pool shell or the filtration system, we tell you so a pool specialist can look at it.

On the pipe and drainage sections we normally work on, yes. If the repair belongs to another trade, we hand over the exact location and the report so whoever steps in knows where to work.

Yes. We provide images and the location of the point we found, which is what insurers and owners' associations usually ask for when apportioning responsibility for damp.

Not necessarily. Damp can come from a shared stack, from a private branch in the flat above, or from water getting in through the facade. Locating the source is precisely what stops neighbours arguing without evidence.

Yes, regularly. In apartment buildings, locating the leak first is what allows a sound decision on whether the affected section is common or private before ordering the repair.

We give you the price of the location work before we travel. The repair, if there is one, is quoted separately once we know what the problem is and where.
