🛠️ Detection Methods & Equipment

Every Goldsithney leak detection survey follows our proven methodology, refined over thousands of successful jobs across Cornwall:

Our acoustic survey report service works particularly well in Goldsithney's older properties, where traditional pipework often creates distinctive leak signatures we can identify.

🎯 Common Leak Problems We Solve

Victorian & Period Properties

Goldsithney's older buildings often retain original pipework that's prone to joint failures. The village's period properties benefit from our experience with Victorian plumbing systems. We pinpoint underground water leaks without excavation.

Modern Estate Properties

Newer developments and bungalows in cul-de-sacs around Perran Downs often experience issues with modern plastic pipes and underfloor heating systems. When your floor feels damp and warm, our specialist equipment locates issues quickly.

Converted Buildings

Goldsithney has seen many conversions, including the former post office. These unique properties often have complex pipework routes requiring our tracer gas water leak detection service to penetrate through multiple floor levels.

The combination of property ages means leak detection in Goldsithney requires versatile expertise. From Victorian mains under older sections to modern plastic pipework in new estates, we adapt our methods to suit each situation.

Our advanced acoustic equipment can detect the subtle sound signatures of leaks even through concrete floors and thick walls. This expertise has made us the preferred choice for property managers and homeowners throughout the TR20 area.

⚡ 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 Goldsithney's solid-walled period properties and modern insulated homes alike.

Electronic Correlators

Precisely calculate leak positions on underground mains by comparing sound waves. Our stop pipe leak detection uses this technology daily throughout Cornwall.

Hydrogen Gas Detection

Safe tracer gas rises through most building materials to indicate leak locations. Perfect for complex pipework routes in converted properties around Goldsithney.

Digital Acoustic Equipment

Ultra-sensitive microphones detect the unique frequency signature of water escaping under pressure. This is crucial when dealing with a heating leak investigation team scenario.

📋 Professional Leak Detection Process

Our systematic approach to water leak detection ensures we locate problems quickly while protecting your Goldsithney 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. Understanding moisture meter readings explained helps us map affected areas.

Moisture Mapping

Using professional moisture meters, we map affected areas to understand water movement patterns. This reveals how water travels through your property structure, especially important in older Goldsithney properties.

Equipment Deployment

Based on initial findings, we select appropriate detection equipment. Thermal imaging leak detection often provides the quickest results for internal leaks, while acoustic methods excel for underground pipes.

Verification & Reporting

Once located, we verify the leak using multiple methods to ensure accuracy. You receive a comprehensive report with photographs and recommendations, perfect for insurance claims or planning repairs.

🚰 Types of Leaks We Detect

DCI Leak Detection handles all types of water leaks affecting Goldsithney properties:

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, saving your garden and driveway.

Central Heating Leaks

Dropping boiler pressure usually means a heating system leak. Understanding what causes boiler to lose pressure helps identify these leaks in pipework hidden under floors or behind walls.

Underfloor Heating Issues

Modern properties with underfloor heating benefit from our thermal imaging expertise, locating leaks within the screed layer quickly and accurately.

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 without unnecessary excavation.

🌟 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, especially important in Goldsithney's older properties.

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.

Avoid Mould Growth

Hidden leaks create perfect conditions for mould, affecting health and property value. Professional detection stops problems before they develop, protecting your family and investment.

Insurance Compliance

Many insurers require professional leak detection reports for claims. Our comprehensive documentation supports your claim process, ensuring you receive the coverage you're entitled to.

For water supply issues and emergency support, South West Water provides excellent resources for leak reporting and water conservation advice.
