Leak & Fault Finding in Lunce's Common

Leak & Fault Finding for Lunce's Common (RH16) properties

Older homes in Lunce's Common were plumbed with salt-glazed clay in short sections with mortar joints — the classic entry point for roots. Newer estates use continuous UPVC, which blocks less from roots and more from wipes, fat and misuse. We factor that into every leak & fault finding job we take in RH16.
