Harry was assigned to trace a leak that damaged my ceiling. He was able to find it and immediately got top work on fixing the issue. He sourced parts needed, he rang me as well as he was stuck in traffic, which was expected.

How to find a water leak
WATCH: How we detect leaks
Most specialist leak detection companies use similar methods. There isn’t one method that’s used to locate any type of leak. Normally, several techniques are used on each job. Results from each technique allow attention to be focused on a specific area.
We’ve produced a series of videos to show examples of how leak detection techniques are used in different situations.
This video shows some of the techniques used when the source of damp could be either plumbing pipes or the roof.

Darren started on time at 8am after booking it the previous day. He listened and understood all the various issues, and proceeded to work through each one thoroughly to trace the leak. He was clearly an expert in his field, and stayed until all the issues were fixed. I really couldn't have asked for more.

Trace and access
Our leak detection experts use a wide range of high-tech, non-intrusive methods to trace the source of a leak without damaging walls, floors or ceilings. The logical process they follow allows them to locate, with a high level of certainty, where the source is. If the leak isn’t immediately visible, they’ll ask permission to access it at the point they’ve traced it to.
The visual confirmation from accessing the leak is how the detection process is concluded. The work associated with fixing the leak and quoting for the repairs can then begin straight away.
The thorough process our tradespeople follow, and the non-intrusive methods they use, means on average they’re able to find leaks quicker while causing minimal damage.
This process of high-tech trace and access is usually required by insurance companies as part of a claim. This is because it reduces the overall costs when remedial repairs are included.
Don’t delay stopping a leak
Any type of plumbing leak or point of water ingress that remains undetected could be causing bigger problems than visible signs might suggest. The hidden damage excess moisture causes could eventually compromise the structural integrity of your property.
Our leak detection tradespeople have years of experience with locating leaks wherever they occur inside or outside a property.
We understand the stress of having a leak but not knowing the full extent of the problem. Our experts will find it, stop further damage and arrange to get it fixed quickly. We also provide a full repair service.
