Interruption to your water supply - Wembley - HA0

Checking for
water leaks
in your home

From freezing winters to hot summer days, changes in temperature put pressure on your pipes.

As they expand and contract, they can weaken – making a leak in your home more likely to happen. That’s why a quick leak check can make a significant impact.

By checking for water leaks in your home often, you can find problems early. This stops you from wasting water and saves you the stress and cost of repairs later.

Our simple Look & Listen test is like an MOT for your home.

It helps you keep an eye on common problem areas like a leaking tap or leaking toilet. Even listening out for a faint leak sound can help you detect water leaks in your home before they turn into something bigger.

With our checklist, you’ll know:

  • How to find a leak in your home
  • What the common signs of a water leak in the home are
  • How to prevent water leaks in your home in the first place
