Leak detection in Tías, Lanzarote. Water leak and pool detection, pipe inspection and emergency repairs. 30-40 min response time. Free quotes available.
Tías town sits above Puerto del Carmen and is mostly long-term local residents plus a growing number of expats living year-round. It's a different kind of leak detection job from the resorts. Fewer holiday rentals, more family homes that have been in the same hands for decades, and a lot of fincas and small plots in the countryside around the town. Tías also covers the wine country on the way down to La Geria, where the leaks tend to be irrigation rather than domestic. Leakbusters Lanzarote works the whole municipality including the rural areas.
Tías town sits up the hill from the coast, around 250 m elevation. It's a proper working Spanish town — whitewashed houses around the church, day-to-day life rather than tourism. The countryside around the village has fincas, some agricultural, some converted to homes. A lot of international owners pick Tías for the authentic feel within driving distance of Puerto del Carmen. The municipality stretches all the way down to the coast through residential villa developments. You can be on a century-old supply line in the village in the morning and a modern villa pool circuit at the coast in the afternoon.
Two patterns in Tías. In the older village houses around the church, supply lines were chased into thick block walls back when galvanised was the standard, and they've reached the end. Pinhole leaks usually show as a damp spot on a wall a metre away from where the actual pipe runs. On the rural fincas, the bigger problem is the irrigation network — kilometres of buried pipe feeding crops or landscape gardens, and a single split can pour out hundreds of litres a day. We carry both the acoustic kit for the village houses and the leak correlators we need for the longer rural runs.
The 250 m elevation makes Tías a few degrees cooler than the beach and cuts the salt corrosion exposure. The trade-off is water pressure. Pipes high up the hill see less consistent pressure, which stresses joints and shows up as drip leaks in random spots. The other thing is irrigation. A lot of Tías properties have garden or farm irrigation networks, and a buried leak in an irrigation line can pour litres a day before anyone spots it. Traditional construction in the village — thick stone walls, lime renders — means we have to use non-invasive methods or risk doing more damage than the leak.

Tías is split between the traditional town up the hill and the coastal stretch that runs into Puerto del Carmen. Two very different jobs in one municipality. The village has older Canarian homes with thick stone walls and plumbing that's been rerouted over generations. The countryside around it has working and converted fincas with irrigation systems. The hillside elevation also messes with water pressure, which stresses pipes and shows up as joint failures in inconvenient places. Leakbusters Lanzarote covers the whole municipality with the same crew.
“We bought an old finca near Tías that needed complete renovation. Before starting, we had Leakbusters survey all the underground pipes. They found two leaks we didn't know about and mapped the entire system for our builders. Invaluable service.”
