⚡ Advanced Detection Technology

Our non-invasive detection methods use industry-leading equipment that protects your property while finding leaks:

Thermal Imaging Cameras

These detect temperature differences caused by escaping water, even through walls and floors. Essential for identifying leaks in Egloshayle's solid-walled period properties.

Electronic Correlators

Precisely calculate leak positions on underground mains by comparing sound waves. Perfect for locating leaks under driveways and gardens without digging.

Hydrogen Tracer Gas

Safe tracer gas rises through most building materials to indicate leak locations. Our tracer gas leak assessment works perfectly for complex pipework routes.

Digital Acoustic Equipment

Ultra-sensitive microphones detect the unique frequency signature of water escaping under pressure. This is crucial when confirming central heating leaks in your system.

🔬 Professional Leak Detection Process

Our systematic approach to leak detection in Egloshayle ensures we find leaks quickly while protecting your property:

Visual Inspection

We start by examining visible signs - damp patches, mould growth, or water stains. This helps narrow down potential leak areas before deploying equipment.

Moisture Mapping

Using professional moisture meters, we map affected areas to understand water movement patterns. Understanding moisture meter readings helps reveal how water travels through your property structure.

Equipment Deployment

Based on initial findings, we select appropriate detection equipment. Thermal imaging leak detection often provides the quickest results for internal leaks.

Verification & Reporting

Once located, we verify the leak using multiple methods to ensure accuracy. You receive a comprehensive report with photographs and recommendations.

🚰 Types of Leaks We Detect

Mains Water Leaks

High water bills often indicate mains leaks between the meter and property. Our mains water leak detection service locates these without extensive digging. If you're unsure about water leaks between meter and house, we can help identify and resolve the issue.

Central Heating Leaks

Dropping boiler pressure usually means a heating system leak. Our central heating leak detection service finds these leaks in pipework hidden under floors or behind walls. Learn more about what causes boiler to lose pressure and how we can help.

Underfloor Heating Issues

Modern properties with underfloor heating benefit from our thermal imaging expertise. Understanding underfloor heating leaks and what to do helps prevent costly damage.

Underground Pipe Leaks

External leaks in gardens or driveways need specialist equipment. Underground water leak detection uses acoustic and tracer gas methods for accurate location. Our guide on how to find a water leak underground explains our methods.

💰 Why Early Leak Detection Matters

Prevent Structural Damage

Undetected leaks cause serious structural problems. Water weakens foundations, rots timber, and damages plaster. Early detection prevents costly repairs.

Reduce Water Bills

Even small leaks waste thousands of litres annually. Quick detection and repair saves money on water bills while conserving this precious resource. If you've received a South West Water leak notification, we can help locate the problem quickly.

Avoid Mould Growth
