    Greg and his team were BRILLIANT!

    Greg and his team were Brilliant (I had the pleasure of getting the wonderful Richie) . Responsive, highly professional in correspondence and on site, timely, VERY thorough, kept me totally informed throughout - found the leak - dealt with it on the spot - excellent quick report backed up with photos - resulting in a VERY happy and relieved customer. I still want your autograph Greg LOL! BELIEVE THE REVIEWS - Greg is brilliant!

    Tracing and fixing a cold water mains leak under the kitchen floor.

    The tracing process was carried out in a professional and thorough manner and the leak efficiently fixed. Greg then left the kitchen area as clean and tidy as possible given that the pipe work was under concrete. I would highly recommend Gate Leak Detection.

    Excellent job

    Contacted after Reading reviews on here and Trustpilot. We were at the extreme end of the geography covered but Greg was very happy to attend the following week (we were away for a few days so I didn't ask if he could attend at very short notice) In summary he arrived on time, was courteous, professional and very thorough, found the leak under a kitchen cupboard and under the floor and fixed it. He was here for nine hours. Consequently, the fee seemed reasonable given the time taken and the expertise and equipment deployed. Glad we contacted Greg as our local plumber couldn't find the leak.

    Response from Gate Leak Detection

    Hi Tim, Leak detection is quite a niche industry and, at times, we do have to travel as we cover the whole of the South East. That’s all part of our daily routine and never an issue for us. On paper, hearing that there was a large hissing noise sounded ideal. As a leak detection company, when a customer tells us that, we naturally think the job is going to be fairly straightforward. Unfortunately for us, this one wasn’t quite so simple! Your handmade bespoke kitchen certainly added to the challenge, but I’m really pleased we were able to gain access to the leak with minimal damage

    water pressure issue due to leak in heating network

    Quick summary of issue - low water pressure issue with boiler, which turned out to be a leak in the heating network vs boiler. Initially booked a mainstream company to find and fix leak in heating network, who informed me the issue was with boiler, not network, which was an incorrect assessment. I booked Gate leak detection (with the help of AI) and they found the leak and fixed it. What stood out for me were 2 things (i) engineer was competent in fixing leaks within heating network (ii) engineer had tools/ equipment for the job.

    Thanks for the glowing review. I think sometimes when people use larger organisations, standards can slip because they’re simply so big. They have to meet a huge demand for work, and unfortunately the quality and competency of the engineers can vary. We’re a proud small company where standards, attention to detail and competency really matter, and we always strive to provide the best service possible. Glad we got it sorted for you 👍👍

    Amazing Professional company

    I'm very happy with the work and customer service that was provided. Everything was smooth from start to finish and was very easy to book the appointment in a timely manner. I was very happy with the work that Richie carried out to detect and fix the water leak with very little damage to kitchen floor. Would definitely recommend if you need a water leak repaired.

    Hi Saja, Thanks for the glowing review. Richie and I have a bit of friendly competition going on over who can get the best reviews, and it’s pretty even at the minute! More importantly though, we work really well together as a company and always aim to get the issue resolved properly for our customers. Thanks again for taking the time to leave the review. Greg
