FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about our non-invasive water leak detection and trace & access services in Felixstowe & Suffolk and the surrounding areas.

What is Trace and Access?

+

Trace and Access is a specific type of insurance cover that pays for the cost of finding a leak and gaining access to it. This often includes removing floorboards or tiling. Our detailed reports are designed to help you make a successful claim with your insurance provider.

Will you have to dig up my whole floor?

+

No. The goal of using thermal imaging and acoustic equipment is to be as non-invasive as possible. We aim to pinpoint the leak to within a few centimetres, meaning we only need to lift a very small area of flooring to carry out the repair.

How do I know if I have a hidden leak?

+

Common signs include a boiler that constantly loses pressure, damp spots on walls or floors, a persistent musty odour, or an unexplained increase in your water meter readings. If you notice any of these, it is time to call in the experts.

Can you fix the leak once you find it?

+

Yes. Unlike some companies that only "find" the leak, FLEX PROPERTY SERVICES is a full-service maintenance firm. Once the leak is located, our CIPHE-qualified plumbers can carry out the repair immediately. We can also handle the subsequent decorating and flooring repairs to get your home back to normal.

What exactly is Trace and Access?

+

Trace and Access is a specific term used by insurance companies. It refers to the process of finding the leak (Trace) and getting to it (Access). This is different from the actual repair of the pipe. Most modern insurance policies cover the cost of the detection and the work required to reach the leak, and our detailed reports are designed to help with these claims.

Can you find a leak under a concrete floor?

+

Yes. Using acoustic equipment and tracer gases, we can find leaks deep beneath solid floors. This avoids the need to dig up your entire ground floor just to find one small hole in a pipe.

My boiler keeps losing pressure but I can’t see a leak. Can you help?

+

This is a very common issue. It usually suggests a small "pinhole" leak somewhere in the central heating circuit. We use thermal imaging to track the warm water pipes under your floors, which usually reveals a heat plume where the water is escaping.

How long does it take to find a leak?

+

Most leaks are located within a few hours. However, every property is different. We stay on-site until we are confident we have found the source, providing you with a clear plan for the repair.
