Leak Detection East London — Find Hidden Leaks Without Breaking Up Floors

• Water meter spins even when all taps are off
• Unexplained drop in boiler pressure
• Damp patch on a ceiling, wall or floor that returns after drying
• Sound of running water with no fixture in use
• Higher-than-normal water bill
• Warm patch on a tiled or concrete floor (hot water leak)

1. Acoustic listening — sensitive microphones pick up the sound of water escaping from pressurised pipework.
2. Thermal imaging — infrared cameras locate temperature differences caused by hot water or heating leaks.
3. Tracer gas — a safe hydrogen/nitrogen mix is introduced to the pipework and surface-traced with a detector.
4. CCTV inspection — for leaks on drainage and waste pipework.

Acoustic and thermal detection from £180. Tracer-gas detection from £280. CCTV drain inspection from £180. Repair is quoted separately once the leak is located.

If your home insurance includes 'trace and access' cover (most do), we provide a written report and itemised invoice that you can submit to your insurer. Many of our customers recover the cost of detection and reinstatement in full.
