If your boiler keeps losing pressure and you have underfloor heating, the problem may be inside the floor circuit rather than anywhere you can see.
We locate underfloor heating leaks across Stirling, Glasgow, Edinburgh, and the wider Central Belt with a structured approach that helps reduce unnecessary disruption.
The pipework is often embedded in screed beneath the finished floor.
That means the water may stay hidden for a long time, the visible sign can arrive late, and a general plumbing inspection may confirm pressure loss without pinpointing the fault.
Protecting the floor finish becomes a major part of the decision, which is why careful detection matters before anyone starts lifting floors.
This helps establish whether the problem appears to sit within the underfloor heating circuit or somewhere more accessible.
Depending on the case, that may include tracer gas, acoustic detection, thermal imaging, and pressure testing.
The aim is to avoid speculative floor removal and keep any access as targeted as possible.
You are told whether the source appears to sit in the floor system, what area is likely affected, and what the next step should be.
Underfloor heating is common in newer-build homes across Stirling and the wider commuter belt, so this is not an unusual edge case.
It is also common in newer developments around Edinburgh and Glasgow, especially where underfloor heating was installed as a standard feature.
We explain what was found, what appears to be affected, whether repair is within scope, and what the next step is if further access is needed.
We do not promise that every repair will involve no damage. Some repairs need a small, targeted access point through the floor finish.
The value of specialist detection is that any access is based on evidence rather than guesswork.
Some buildings policies include trace and access cover. On this page, trace and access means carefully locating the source of the leak and reaching it where necessary.
We can provide written findings and photos that your insurer may request. We do not manage claims or guarantee insurer approval.
In many cases, yes. That is the purpose of the investigation.
Not always. Some repairs need targeted access, but the aim is to avoid unnecessary opening-up.
Where access allows and the repair is within scope, often yes.
We will tell you. The point of the investigation is to separate those possibilities properly.
Tell us what you are seeing, the property type, and whether you know the issue involves underfloor heating. We will explain whether a specialist visit is likely to help.
