Which leaks do engineers trace in Presteigne?
Explain where the wet area lies and how to reach it, particularly when the entrance leads through a courtyard.
Broad Street combines older timber-building plots with Georgian frontages. Some deep plots lead to courtyards that retain cobbled surfaces. For a suspected underground leak there, give the meter position and describe the route to the affected outside area. Acoustic listening and tracer gas can help narrow a buried escape before a surface is lifted.
Presteigne’s historic core also includes listed buildings, so mention any restrictions that apply to your property when agreeing the investigation and repair access.
Unexplained meter movement can help identify a private supply problem at a Presteigne property. Describe whether the pipe serves another building on the plot and who can reach its stop tap. The investigation follows the actual connection before digging is considered.
