Water leaks don’t just cause damp. Left unresolved, they can damage your floors, walls, insulation, electrics, and more. That’s why we offer more than just detection.

We Offer:

Insurance Reports

We provide clear, detailed reports and supporting photos for your escape of water insurance claim. Most insurers accept our documentation without issue.

Don’t Ignore the Signs of a Hidden Leak

Some water leaks are obvious, but most are not. If you’ve spotted any of these signs in your property, it’s time to get it checked:

A patch of damp that keeps reappearing
Musty smells in rooms with no ventilation issues
Mould spots around skirting boards or ceilings
A heating system that’s always losing pressure
Water meter running when no taps are on
Warped flooring or bubbling paint
Unexplained rise in your water bill

Even a slow leak can cause thousands in damage if it reaches structural timbers or electrical systems. The earlier it’s caught, the better.

What Happens During Your Survey

Every leak detection visit follows the same structured process, so you know exactly what to expect and what you’ll walk away with.

1. Arrival and walkthrough.

Your named technician arrives in a branded vehicle at the agreed time. We walk through the property with you, noting every area of concern such as damp patches, pressure drops or visible damage, so nothing is missed.

2. Non-invasive testing.

We deploy the right combination of tools for your situation, including thermal imaging to map moisture behind walls, acoustic listening to trace pressurised leaks, tracer gas injection for underfloor pipework, and moisture meters to measure the extent of saturation.

3. Source identification.

We isolate the leak to its precise origin point and confirm the cause — whether it’s a failed joint, a corroded section, a cracked fitting, or external water ingress. We photograph the evidence and explain our findings on-site so you’re never left guessing.

4. On-site debrief.

Pipes inside walls and under floors can crack or shift due to building movement, temperature changes, or old age. Because these leaks are entirely out of sight, they tend to do the most damage before they’re found. A small split in a pipe behind plasterboard might release water 24/7, soaking timbers and insulation without any outward sign until serious damage appears .

5. Written report delivered

Within 48 hours you receive a detailed PDF report by email. This is the document you forward to your insurer, your plumber, or your landlord. It contains everything listed below.

Your report includes

Confirmed leak location with annotated photographs
Identified cause (e.g. failed solder joint, cracked compression fitting, degraded pipe section)
Thermal images and moisture readings showing the affected area
A clear written summary of findings
Recommended next steps for repair
Technician name, qualifications, and date of inspection
Insurer-ready format accepted by all major UK home insurance providers

FAQ's

Our most frequently asked questions.

How long does a leak detection visit take?

Most leak detection assessments take a few hours, depending on the size of the property and the complexity of the problem. We’ll give you a clear estimate before we start.

Do you need to cut into my property to find the leak?

In most cases, no. Our equipment allows us to locate leaks without damaging walls or floors. If we need to do further checks, we’ll explain what’s needed and why.

What if you can't find my leak?

We successfully locate leaks in over 95% of cases. If we genuinely can't find it with our standard methods, we'll discuss alternative approaches or specialist techniques. We're honest about what's possible.

Will my insurance cover the cost?

Most home insurance policies include cover for leak detection under 'Trace and Access' or 'Escape of Water' clauses. We can check your policy wording and provide the documentation needed for claims.

Will you fix the leak once it’s found?

We specialise in detection. Once we’ve identified the problem, we’ll give you a report and help you arrange the right repairs through a trusted plumber or contractor.
