Leak detection
Ramadan Drain CleaningWater leak detection in Dajeej
Water leak detection in Dajeej starts when you notice the water bill spike suddenly, or damp patches appearing under tiles. Dajeej is a residential district in Farwaniya, mostly apartments and villas built on raised ground, with main supply lines running deep under the streets and access lanes.
How to tell
Signs of a leak onthe supply.
Four signs that separate a supply leak from any other damp.
01
The meter turns with nothing on
Shut every tap, the washing machine and the heater, then go and look at the water meter. If the small dial is still turning while nothing is running, water is leaving between the meter and the house.
02
One tile joint stays wet
A joint between two tiles dries and comes back wet on its own, with no water anywhere near it. That joint is the weakest opening in the floor, so it is where water in the bedding surfaces first.
03
Paint lifts and plaster crumbles
Paint bubbling or plaster crumbling at roughly one height along a wall points to a pipe inside it, because the moisture spreads sideways along the line the pipe runs on.
04
Pressure dropped upstairs only
If the pressure drops on the top floor while the ground floor is normal, the loss is usually on the riser. Water leaving it takes away whatever reaches the furthest point in the network.
This area
What setsthis area apart
Dajeej has a mix of older and newer houses, and the older ones have lines more prone to leaks because iron pipes have rusted over time. We inspect every joint and every bend in the main supply before we dig. If the leak is under the foundation or under a flat's floor slab, we trace it from the nearest access point to pinpoint exactly where it's seeping.
Dajeej is a residential area in Farwaniya governorate, mixing villas and flats on shared water and sewage lines.
Most main water lines in Dajeej run under the street at one and a half to two metres depth, so detection needs precision equipment and exact marking.

The method
How we get to thepoint.
Four steps, and the order is what keeps the job short.
We confirm there is a loss
We shut everything in the house that uses water, take a meter reading, then take it again. If the reading has moved, the loss is real.
We split inside from outside
We close the valve feeding the house and read again. That says whether the water is going inside the internal network or on the run coming from the tank or the meter.
We narrow it to one line
We close the bathroom, kitchen and hot water valves one at a time. The one that stops the reading is the line that is leaking.
We listen and mark the spot
On the line we found, we listen at its fittings and over the floor above it, then mark the loudest point on the tile in front of you.
Common questions
Questions about Water leak detection in Dajeej
You see dampness or dark stains on tiles or walls, or a musty smell, or the bill rises sharply even though you are not using more water. When we inspect it, we trace exactly where the seep is before anything is disturbed.
We pinpoint the exact location with our detector and then advise on the fix. Sometimes a section needs partial replacement, sometimes we dig from the nearest pit, and we always test pressure afterwards.
