Leaking Pipes?

Leaks often start small, but they don’t stay that way for long. Water can run through walls, ceilings or under floors before you see anything obvious. We’ll take a look around, work out where the leak is coming from and repair the damaged pipe so things don’t get any worse. All repairs follow current BCP plumbing rules.

How to Tell If You Have a Leak

Some leaks are easy to spot. Others hide for weeks. You might hear water running, notice a musty smell or see paint bubbling on the wall. Sometimes it’s just a wet patch in the yard or a sudden jump in your water bill.


We check the likely areas first, then work our way through the system until we narrow it down.

How We Track Down the Leak

Every leak behaves differently. Sometimes it’s a loose fitting or a worn washer. Other times it’s a small split in a copper pipe or a crack caused by movement in the building.
We use pressure checks and a good eye to find the trouble spot. Once we know exactly where it is, we open up the smallest area needed, repair the pipe and make sure the rest of the line is still in good shape.

Fixing the Leak and Checking the Rest of the System

After the repair is done, we look around the area to see if anything else needs attention. Older pipes can start to weaken in a few places at once, so it’s worth checking the nearby fittings.
If we see anything that might cause problems later, we’ll explain it in simple terms and let you decide whether you want it sorted now or monitored over time.
