Leak Detection in Puerto del Carmen, Lanzarote
Puerto del Carmen is Lanzarote's largest and most popular resort town, home to thousands of properties ranging from traditional apartments in the Old Town to modern villas with private pools. With its high concentration of holiday rentals, hotels, and residential properties, the demand for professional leak detection services is constant. Our team provides fast, reliable leak detection across all of Puerto del Carmen, from the Old Town harbour to the newest developments near the Biosfera shopping center.
About Puerto del Carmen
Puerto del Carmen stretches along approximately 6 kilometres of Lanzarote's southeastern coastline, encompassing distinct neighbourhoods each with their own character and property styles. The Old Town, centred around the original fishing harbour, features traditional Canarian architecture with properties often dating back 40-50 years. These older buildings frequently have aging plumbing infrastructure that benefits from regular inspection and leak detection. Moving west along Avenida de las Playas, the main tourist strip, you'll find the greatest concentration of hotels, apartment complexes, and commercial properties. This area sees the highest demand for leak detection services due to the volume of water usage and the age of some 1980s-era developments. The newer areas around Los Pocillos and towards the Biosfera shopping center feature more modern construction, but even these properties can experience leaks from pool systems, irrigation, and general wear. Further west, the residential areas of Tías municipality border Puerto del Carmen, with a mix of Spanish residents and international property owners who rely on professional leak detection for both primary homes and holiday lets.

Why Leak Detection Matters in Puerto del Carmen
Puerto del Carmen's position as Lanzarote's primary tourist destination makes professional leak detection critically important for property owners and managers. With thousands of holidaymakers visiting each year, water leaks can quickly escalate from minor inconveniences to major financial and reputational problems. A leaking pipe in a holiday rental can result in cancelled bookings, negative reviews, and expensive emergency repairs that could have been prevented with early detection. The town's coastal location also means that salt air corrosion affects plumbing systems more aggressively than inland areas, requiring proactive leak detection to catch problems before they become emergencies. For hotel and apartment complex managers, regular leak detection surveys can identify developing issues during quiet periods, allowing repairs to be scheduled without disrupting peak season occupancy. The combination of high property values, rental income dependency, and challenging environmental conditions makes Puerto del Carmen properties particularly vulnerable to water damage, and professional detection services are an essential part of responsible property maintenance.
Local Climate Factors
Puerto del Carmen's climate significantly impacts plumbing systems and leak patterns. The area receives minimal rainfall, meaning any water damage is almost certainly from a leak rather than weather. However, the hot, dry climate accelerates the degradation of rubber seals and gaskets in plumbing systems. Summer temperatures regularly exceed 30°C, causing thermal expansion in pipes that can stress joints over time. The salt-laden sea air is perhaps the most significant factor, causing corrosion in metal pipes and fittings, particularly in properties closest to the coast. Pools in Puerto del Carmen lose significant water to evaporation - typically 10-15mm per week in summer - which can mask genuine leaks. Our detection process accounts for these local factors to accurately diagnose whether water loss is due to environmental conditions or actual leaks requiring repair.
