We were called to an apartment in Sliema after water had been affecting lower units in the same building.
The building had already been inspected in stages, and the team needed to understand which property and which wet area were still contributing to the problem. This kind of multi-unit situation is exactly why apartment block leak inspections need structure and access.
What the inspection checked
The team compared the lower damage with the suspected source apartment and noted the bathroom layout. After the water supply was opened from the roof tank, acoustic listening was used around the suspected wet area.
The sound profile pointed toward the shower area near the mixer. The area was marked so a plumber could open and repair the targeted section.
Why this matters
In a Sliema apartment block, water can travel through slabs, shafts and finishes before it appears below. Without a proper inspection, owners can end up arguing or opening the wrong area.
If a leak involves more than one apartment, book a professional water leak inspection and arrange access to both the affected and suspected source areas where possible.
