    Most leak detection jobs get botched the same way

    • Damp patch on the ceiling but no obvious source.

    • Water meter ticking even when nothing is on.

    • Boiler pressure dropping every few days, no visible leak.

    • Insurance demanding a leak detection report before they'll pay out.

    The Cost Of Getting It WrongAn unfound leak rots joists, ruins ceilings, and can cost £8,000+ in damage by the time it's visible. Insurers increasingly require professional leak detection reports before settling claims — without one, you pay yourself.
    How It Works

    Simple, Honest, On Time

    1

    Initial Assessment & History

    We listen carefully — symptoms, when it started, what's tried already. Half the diagnosis is in what you tell us.

    2

    Pressure & Meter Testing

    Mains pressure test, meter monitoring and isolation testing to confirm a leak exists and narrow down which circuit is losing.

    3

    Thermal Imaging Survey

    FLIR thermal cameras identify temperature differences from leaks behind walls, under floors and in ceilings — no destruction needed.

    4

    Acoustic & Tracer Detection

    Acoustic listening equipment and (where appropriate) tracer gas to pinpoint leaks invisible to thermal imaging — concrete floors, deep voids, mains pipes.

    5

    Written Report & Repair Quote

    Photo-documented findings with marked location, suitable for insurance claims, plus a fixed-price repair quote.

    Leak Detection: What You Should Actually Know

    Why Hidden Leaks Are So Damaging

    A pinhole leak in a copper pipe can lose 200+ litres a day silently. Behind a stud wall or under a floor, that water rots structural timber, blooms black mould, corrodes electrical cabling and saturates plasterboard. The damage routinely runs to 5 figures by the time anyone sees a stain.

    How Thermal Imaging Finds Hidden Leaks

    Water from hot pipes shows as hotter zones, water from cold pipes as cooler zones — both create patterns invisible to the eye but obvious to a calibrated thermal camera. Combined with pressure testing, accuracy is typically within a 200mm radius — small enough to expose with a single careful cut.

    When Insurance Will Pay For Leak Detection

    Most home insurance policies (especially Aviva, AXA, Direct Line, Halifax) cover "trace and access" — the cost of finding the leak — provided the resulting damage is also covered. We provide compliant reports specifically formatted for claim teams.
