Found out yesterday my underbuild in spain is like Glastonbury in the rain.muddy as hell.
Traced it to a leak from the mains to the house, its bubbling and fizzing but is that an indication that the leak is very close to that point or could it be 2 metres of concrete breaking away from the point of the vid ( just as the pipe bends up in the wall to meet the house stop valve.
I'm hoping to catch it there without tearing right through a tiled patio any pointers would help as the insurance guy ( 3 hours ) is not here till 9am tomorrow, spain eh !
a little video of it
