“My downstairs neighbour complained that water was coming through their bedroom ceiling at 6pm. Kevin attended within 2 hours, investigated, and traced the leak back to my neighbour's own water tank — isolating the issue so they had time to contact their landlord. A great, reliable plumber, even if his jokes are mince.”

Leak Detection & Repair in Colinton — Found at the Source, Fixed Properly
Damp patch, dripping ceiling or a leak you can’t pin down in Colinton? We find the source and fix it properly.

Leak Detection & Repair in Colinton
Leak Detection & Repair for Colinton’s period villas and larger homes
From Colinton village and Colinton Dell on the Water of Leith to Bonaly and Oxgangs, homes range from 19th-century stone houses to post-war and newer family homes.
In big period houses, a stain on one ceiling can come from a pipe two rooms away. We trace pipe runs back to the source rather than guessing and cutting holes.
In modern homes, a leak is often a push-fit joint, a shower seal or a waste connection behind a panel. We find it, fix it and leave a proper access panel so it’s easy to reach next time.
What’s included in Colinton
- Tracing hidden and slow leaks
- Leaks under baths, showers and sinks
- Ceiling and wall damp from pipework
- Toilet and cistern leaks
- Leaking valves, joints and fittings
- A clear explanation of what caused it

“Top group — they found the leak and replaced the toilet the same day, just a few days after the call. Very quick considering it wasn't an emergency.”
