Nobody wants to deal with a water leak, which is why we so very often turn a blind eye to the issue. However, the ongoing damage a small water leak can cause will leave you regretting ignoring the problems in the first place.

Depending on the location and the water type, the leak can leave you with no heat or any hot water. It is not something you want to be dealing with while being mid-way through the typical English winter season.

Our Leading UK Leak Detection Services

Leaks can very often present themselves in unusual ways. For example, a crack within a hot water pipe that is situated within the brick of your walls can result in a lack of hot water circulating the house.

Subsequently, there is also a high probability of mould growing within the middle of your walls if this leak is to go unnoticed for a long duration of time. An ingrowth of mould can weaken the structure of your property and cause long-lasting damage.

Our Leak Detection Specialist Equipment

We are always investing in industry-leading leak detection equipment and solutions to ensure that our services are always outstanding. One of the technologies we have is a thermal imaging device; this allows our technicians to be able to detect where the leak is coming from without causing any further damage to your property. Below we have listed a few technologies that we regularly used to detect a leak:

Thermal Imaging

One of the most common technologies we use is a piece of equipment called thermal imaging. The device provides an x-ray-type result of the surface, allowing our teams to see if there is water build-up within the pores of the wall. 

Acoustic Technology
This device allows our technicians to hear any subtle form of water dripping, and be able to characterise the type of water damage. This technology can measure the strength of the pipe by placing a microscopic flex on the pipe wall by using an array of sound waves.

Protimeters

A pin-type protimeter uses electrical resistance to measure the absence or more likely presence of water within a variety of materials such as drywall, wood, tiles, paint, brick and many more. The device will measure using an array of radio waves that will penetrate below the wall of the surface. The tool allows for rapid and efficient reading without damaging the surface. 

Along with the above technologies we also have a variety of other technologies at our disposal:

• Endoscopic camera
• Consumption tests
• Pressure testing of all pipes 
• Gas tracing 

Leak Damage Photography

Throughout our service, we ensure a variety of photographs are taken of the damage caused by the leak, so you have sufficient evidence when it comes to claiming on your insurance. The last thing we want to do is detect the leak within the property and then make amends leaving you with no physical evidence to support your claims. 

Through our experience in the field and our state-of-the-art technologies, our experts can identify the nature of the leak and the location of the leak, no matter how hidden. Once we have found the primary source of ingress, we can provide a drying, cleaning, and decontamination service, ensuring your property is returned to its original state in an efficient time.
