- Thermal imaging
- Tracer gas
- Acoustic leak detection
- Moisture testing
- Visual inspection
- Water-system checks
Signs of a hidden water leak
You may need leak detection if you notice unexplained damp, mould, loss of water pressure, sounds of running water or a water bill that has increased without an obvious reason.
Domestic and commercial leak detection
We investigate suspected leaks at homes, businesses, managed properties and commercial premises. Once the inspection is complete, we will explain our findings and recommend any further investigation or repair work required.
