How we find hidden leaks
Gas
Our Tracer Gas Method introduces a safe, non-toxic gas into your pipework. Our detectors pick up the gas where it escapes, so we can find the source of the leak quickly and accurately.

Sound
The Aquaphon Method uses sound to find leaks. With the Aquaphon A200 plumbers' set we listen for the distinctive noise of escaping water, so even the faintest drips can be found.

The Tracer Gas Method
Tracer Gas
The Tracer Gas Method is one of the most precise ways to find a leak. We introduce a safe, non-toxic gas into your plumbing system, and it follows the same path as the water, escaping wherever there is a leak.
We then work along the route of the pipework with highly sensitive detectors, which track the movement of the gas step by step until we find exactly where it is coming out.
Once we know where the leak is, we can fix it quickly and only open up the spot that needs repairing, keeping disruption to your property to a minimum. It means even the most stubborn, hard-to-find leaks can be traced and put right efficiently.
The Aquaphon Method
Aquaphon A200
The Aquaphon Method uses sound to find leaks you can’t see. We use the Aquaphon A200 plumbers’ set, a highly sensitive piece of acoustic leak detection equipment that picks up the particular noise water makes as it escapes from a pipe.
Our engineers place sensors at points along your pipework and listen carefully to what they pick up. The equipment can hear very faint sounds, so even small, hidden leaks that would otherwise go unnoticed can be found.
By comparing what we hear at each point, we can pinpoint where the leak is and repair it with as little disruption as possible. You get a clear explanation of what we found and what needs doing.
