Smoke Test Dublin: Find Hidden Drain Problems Fast

What Is a Smoke Test?

A smoke test is simple but very effective. We put non-toxic smoke into your drainage system. As the smoke moves through the pipes, it escapes through any cracks, gaps, or leaks. This makes the problem visible above ground.

This method is fast and reliable. It finds both small and large issues in your drainage network. Best of all, there is no need for digging or disruption to your property.
