What the leak repair includes

  • Finding the leak

    We close valves and test section by section until we find the exact point.

  • Minimal opening up

    We open only the area of wall, floor or ceiling that is needed.

  • Repairing the section

    We replace the damaged pipe or joint, not just the visible part.

  • Repair checked under pressure

    We pressurise the system and check that the pressure holds.

  • Drying before closing

    We let the area air and measure the damp before covering it.

  • Finishes restored

    Tiling, plaster or paint on the opened area, matched to the rest.

From the meter to the damp patch: finding the source

In 1960s and 70s flats in areas such as La Vila de Gràcia and El Camp d'en Grassot i Gràcia Nova, leaks are usually at threaded galvanised joints, at the lead pipe next to the meter or under the shower tray. We keep to the building's working hours and give notice before shutting the riser valve.

When we have to open up in flats and houses in areas such as La Salut, El Coll and Vallcarca i els Penitents, we cut a neat opening just around the fault, replace the pipe or joint with fittings that suit the existing material and pressure-test the system before closing.

A site manager organises the plumber and the builder, we protect furniture and floors, and everything is left clean when we finish. We also come out to the surrounding areas: Eixample, Sarrià-Sant Gervasi and Horta-Guinardó.

Frequently asked questions

01

Water leak repair in Gràcia: which areas do you cover?

We do this work in Gràcia, in areas such as La Vila de Gràcia, El Camp d'en Grassot i Gràcia Nova, La Salut, El Coll and Vallcarca i els Penitents, and also nearby: Eixample, Sarrià-Sant Gervasi and Horta-Guinardó. Before starting we visit the property and prepare a detailed written quote.

02

How do you find the leak without tearing the place apart?

We close valves, isolate sections and check the pressure in each one. That narrows down the area, so we only open up where the damage is.

03

The stain is on my neighbour's ceiling: is the problem mine?

Not necessarily. It could come from your shower, a waste pipe or a shared soil stack. We check your installation and tell you clearly where the water is coming from.

04

What should I do until you arrive?

Turn off the main stopcock and, if water is reaching sockets or appliances, switch off the power to that area. Take photos of the damp: they help us prepare the visit.
