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.

Water leaks in Horta-Guinardó: where they usually are

In 1960s and 70s flats in areas such as El Baix Guinardó, El Guinardó and Can Baró, 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.

To locate a leak in homes in areas such as El Carmel and La Teixonera, we close every valve, read the meter and test hot, cold and waste separately. That tells us whether pressurised water is escaping or the damp comes from a discharge, before anything is broken out.

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: Gràcia, Nou Barris and Sant Andreu.

Frequently asked questions

01

Water leak repair in Horta-Guinardó: which areas do you cover?

We work in Horta-Guinardó in areas such as El Baix Guinardó, El Guinardó, Can Baró, El Carmel, La Teixonera, Horta, La Clota and La Font d'en Fargues, and also nearby: Gràcia, Nou Barris and Sant Andreu.

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.
