Frequently asked questions

How do I know if I have a leak?

Hidden leaks often show subtle warning signs before visible damage occurs. Watch for unexplained damp patches, mould growth, musty odours, unusually high water bills, or the sound of running water when no taps are on. If you notice any of these, Polygon’s professional leak detection can pinpoint the source quickly and prevent costly damage.

How accurate is leak detection?

Our non-invasive technology can pinpoint the source of leaks with high accuracy, even when hidden inside walls or under floors.

Do you also repair the leak?

We specialise in locating leaks quickly and precisely, and can either carry out the repair or coordinate with trusted contractors.

Will my insurance cover leak detection?

Many policies include trace and access cover, which may cover the cost of locating leaks. We provide clear reports to support your claim.

How long does leak detection take?

Most inspections are completed within a few hours, depending on the complexity of the system and location of the leak.
