Satisfied Customer
The plumber arrived at the agreed time, was well equipped with tools and replacement fittings. He was a pleasant young man who worked quietly and efficiently overcoming all the challenges as they arose. All packing and waste materials were removed with his departure leaving a fully working system. I would happily recommend Absolute Leak Detection Ltd to anyone with plumbing concerns.Job location: CM99.67 Water Mains Specialist (Pipe Replacement, Moling and Lead Pipes)

Water leak detection and repair
Hard to detect water leak eventually pinpointed. The excavation, through concrete, repair and reinstatement was carried out in less than a morning. The team was friendly and respectful of my property. The company supplied a detailed report after completion. I should add that on two visits their attendance was very fast following my go ahead.Verified reviewerJob location: IG710 Bathroom & Kitchen Plumbing

This can be identified by taking plaster / concrete samples to carry out a salts test.
<span style="color: rgb(68, 68, 68); font-size: 9.5pt;">We offer a full service of locating the leak, making access / excavating of the leak, repairing the leak and completing a fully detailed insurance company recognized report.
