Experienced, trusted car water leak finding and repair Bristol | Bath:

A leaking car is miserable to own. I know from personal experience - the condensation, odour, mould and breathing in dank air. It's difficult to find the right person to trust too, particularly if you have paid someone before to fix it and they haven't. Few people have the patience and diagnostic process to find a leak and the meticulous nature to repair it.

I have been professionally finding and fixing leaks into boots, foot wells and from sunroofs for over 5 years with the business having over one hundred 5 star Google reviews. In most cases I have worked on your model of car many times before so know exactly where its leaking and how to fix it.

The diagnostic process:

Cars only leak for two reasons; barriers to water fail or drainage pathways become blocked. I methodically test these to diagnose where a car is leaking and in almost all cases can fix it. This tried and tested method has fully resolved leaks on 98% of vehicles to date.

Pricing:

The labour rate is £65p/h. Some models leak so predictably, I can move directly to repair and provide a price for the work. To find out if your vehicle is one them please contact me with the make, model, year and where you find water. Otherwise I take the car through a water leak investigation for £130. Once I understand what the issue or issues are I can provide an estimate for the time/cost required to repair.

How long do I need the car?

In almost all cases I find and repair the vehicle the same day. Some cars can be returned that day depending on the nature of the repair if the weather forecast is dry. Sometimes sealant needs to cure over night and the vehicle is ready the following day.

What if the car still leaks?

On rare occasions leaks aren't fully resolved first time. If this happens I will work for free to fix it until I am out of ideas.
