Drain Leak Detection in Wickham, Hampshire

Is there a persistent, unpleasant whiff of sewage that just won’t go away, no matter how much bleach you pour down the sink? That’s usually a sign of escaping sewer gas. It might be a dried-out trap, a perished seal, or a hairline crack in a soil pipe, but it takes an expert eye to find it. We use specialist foul odour tracing to find exactly where those gases are sneaking into your home. We’re local to the PO17 area, so if you’re smelling something "off" near Wickham Square or up towards Knowle, we can usually get a technician to you the same day to sniff out the source.

The old-fashioned way of finding a leak involved a lot of guesswork and even more sledgehammering. Thankfully, we've moved on from that. We use high-tech CCTV drain surveys and non-invasive technology to peer inside your pipework. Think of it like a micro-camera that travels through your drainage system. This allows us to pinpoint a cracked pipe or a loose joint under your expensive kitchen tiles without having to lift a single one. It’s a cleaner, faster, and far more cost-effective way to get your Hampshire plumbing back in top shape.

We aren’t a massive national franchise with a faceless call centre in another part of the country. We’re based just down the road on Hayling Island and spend our days helping neighbours across Wickham, Winchester, and the Meon Valley. Because we’re genuinely local, our reputation matters to us. You’ll get honest advice, transparent pricing, and a team that actually cares about doing the job right. We don’t believe in "upselling" or hidden shocks—if it’s a simple fix like a loose U-bend, we’ll tell you exactly that and get it sorted without any fuss.

Many homeowners we speak to don't realise that "Trace and Access" is often covered by their buildings insurance. If we find a leak, we can provide you with a professional, insurance-approved report. This documentation includes our detailed findings and video footage from our CCTV cameras, which can be a lifesaver when you're trying to claim back the costs of the repair and any water damage. Whether you’re living in a historic cottage in the heart of Wickham or a modern home on the outskirts of Winchester, we make the process as stress-free as possible.
