Leak Test

    First post and all that so Hey-ho and all that jazz

    Bit of a problem here in my house for the past while and can't see to get it sorted. I have Gas heating and since fitting solid timber floors on battons I've been loosing water from the boiler. No prizes for guessing what I did with a hammer and nail :eek:.

    Spent a while just filling up the boiler but that's hardly a solution so I called out a plumber do trace the leak. He couldn't find one with a leak tester but fiddled around with the boiler and it held it's water for a week or so. Now it's loosing water again but much much slower. So I rang the plumber again and he said there was nothing else he could do as it is virtually impossible to hear a leak when there's a cavity between the concrete and the floor. I could just rip up the timber floor and do another test but I'm flupped if I'm going ripping up the floor unless it's definitely a leak.

    So anyone know of an alternative leak test? The plumber told me he has "the standard one"...whatever that means? Guess what I'm asking is what next? :confused:
