Water leak repairs

A small leak does not announce itself: it stains the wall, swells the flooring or sends the meter spinning. We repair water leaks on accessible runs, joints, cisterns and outlets in Orihuela and on the coast.

What we fix

A joint that weeps

A fitting or a soldered joint leaves a thread of water that ends up on the neighbour's ceiling.

Cistern or flexible hose

Slow losses behind the toilet or under the basin, easy to hide with a bucket and hard to see.

A leak at the heater

The tank or the connections drip onto the utility room or the drying area.

What this job gives you

Close the source

Drying the floor is not enough. The point that is leaking has to be found and replaced or sealed properly.

Less damage to floors

The sooner it is shut off, the less the damp works on flooring, plaster and low cabinets.

A meter that will not stop

If the disc keeps turning with every tap closed, there is a loss somewhere in the installation.

A check when we open up

After the repair we open the circuit and check that the point stays dry.

How it goes

1

We locate the run

We start from the symptom: a stain, a noise, the meter or a puddle. We follow the circuit to the source.

2

We shut off and open only what we must

If a hatch or a strip of tiling has to come up, we say so before anything is broken.

3

We replace the point

A new run, joint or fitting. A test under pressure and a clean-up of the area.

Common questions

Can you repair a buried leak without opening a large area?

It depends on the access. Sometimes a hatch is enough; sometimes a patch of wall has to be opened. We explain the shortest way to reach the pipe.

Is a damp ceiling always my leak?

It can be your installation, the flat above, or the roof. We check what is in your home and tell you if the source is elsewhere.

Does the water have to stay off all day?

Only for the repair and the test. If a part has to be ordered, we leave a safe shut-off.
