We use acoustic, tracer-gas and thermal-imaging methods to pinpoint underground leaks to within a few centimetres — so you don’t end up lifting half the patio looking for a problem we can already see.
Hidden leaks waste water, raise bills, and often turn into bigger problems if left. The good news is that finding them is far cheaper than guessing.
Isolate the supply and check for pressure loss to confirm a leak exists and how big it is.
Listen along the suspected line with ground microphones to triangulate the noise of the leak.
Where needed, inject a safe hydrogen/nitrogen mix and detect the trace point above ground.
Mark the exact location, dig only where needed, repair the pipe or moling new section in.
Usually within 30cm on a domestic supply pipe — close enough that we only need to dig a small repair pit.
On most jobs, yes — leak detection and repair completed in a single visit.
Mains supply, internal pipework after the stop tap, hot & cold feeds — yes. Foul drains are a separate trade.
Yes — we issue a written leak detection report you can send to the water authority for any allowance scheme.
Send a postcode and a couple of details — we’ll come back within the hour with a fixed price.
