Our Leak Detection Services
We offer a comprehensive range of leak detection services to locate leaks anywhere in your Arlesey property — behind walls, beneath floors, underground, within your heating system. Our multi-method approach means we find the actual source of the problem, not just where the water ends up.
Water Leak Detection
We locate hidden leaks in mains supply pipes, internal plumbing and waste systems using advanced water leak detection methods that pinpoint the exact leak location.
Central Heating Leak Detection
We find leaks in radiator pipework, boiler connections and sealed heating systems with our dedicated central heating leak tracing service. Ideal when your boiler keeps losing pressure.
Underfloor Heating Leak Detection
We trace leaks in underfloor heating circuits beneath screed, tile and laminate floors using precise underfloor heating leak detection methods.
Underground Leak Detection
We locate leaks in buried supply pipes, service pipes and drainage systems across gardens and driveways with professional underground pipe leak detection.
Commercial Leak Detection
Full commercial property leak detection services for offices, retail, hospitality, healthcare and industrial properties across Arlesey and Central Bedfordshire.
Trace and Access
Insurance-approved trace and access investigations with detailed reports, photographic evidence and findings to support your claim.
Leak Detection Technology We Use
Finding a hidden leak takes more than guesswork. Our leak detection engineers use multiple non-destructive testing technologies, choosing the most appropriate methods based on your property type and the suspected leak location. This multi-method approach gives us the best chance of pinpointing the leak while keeping disruption to a minimum.
Thermal Imaging
Our infrared thermal imaging surveys use specialist cameras to detect temperature differences caused by escaping water. Ideal for locating leaks behind walls and beneath floors without damage.
Acoustic Listening
Acoustic leak detection technology uses sensitive microphones to detect the sound of water escaping under pressure. Excellent for tracing leaks in mains supply pipes.
Tracer Gas Detection
For heating systems and underfloor circuits, specialist tracer gas detection introduces a safe gas that escapes at the leak point and rises to the surface for detection.
Moisture Mapping
We use advanced moisture meters and mapping to track dampness through building materials, helping trace the leak path back to its source with precision.
Leak Detection for Arlesey Property Types
Arlesey's property mix presents varied challenges for leak detection. The town includes a blend of Victorian and Edwardian terraces near the High Street, inter-war semi-detached homes, and newer housing developments that have expanded the town in recent years. Each construction type has different pipe materials, layouts and common leak points.
Traditional and Period Properties
The older properties around Arlesey's town centre and established residential streets often have a mix of original and updated plumbing. Leaks commonly occur at joints between different pipe materials. Our thermal imaging and moisture mapping can trace these complex pipe runs without opening up the structure.
Modern Homes and New Developments
Arlesey has seen significant residential growth, with new estates featuring modern construction methods. While newer plastic pipework is less prone to corrosion, leaks still occur at joints, manifolds and connections. Many newer properties also have underfloor heating, which requires specialist detection when a leak develops in the circuit.
Commercial and Industrial Properties
Arlesey and the surrounding area includes various commercial premises, from local businesses to industrial units. We provide expert plumbing leak detection and repair for commercial premises with flexible scheduling to minimise business disruption.
Signs You Might Have a Leak
Many leaks stay hidden for weeks or months before becoming obvious. By the time you see visible damage, significant water may already have been lost. If you've noticed any of these warning signs, our leak detection services can help — you can also use our quick leak checker tool to assess your situation.
Catching a leak early typically means simpler repairs, lower costs and less disruption to your home or business.
How Our Leak Detection Process Works
When you contact us about a suspected leak, here's what happens:
Initial Conversation
We discuss your situation over the phone. What have you noticed, where, and when? This helps us understand what kind of leak we're likely dealing with and which equipment to bring.
Site Survey
Our engineer inspects your property, looks at the visible damage, checks systems (boiler pressure, water meter, etc.) and identifies access points. We explain our approach before starting.
Detection Work
Using thermal imaging, acoustic listening, tracer gas, moisture mapping or a combination, we systematically trace the pipe runs and isolate the leak source. This usually takes 1–4 hours for domestic properties and 2–6 hours for commercial premises.
Findings and Report
Once we've located the leak, we explain what we've found, show you the evidence and mark the leak location. You'll receive a written report with photographs, suitable for insurers.
Repair Guidance
We advise on repair options and can carry out minor repairs same day. For larger jobs, we provide clear information and a quote, or you can choose your preferred contractor.
Think You Have a Leak?
Don't let water damage get worse. Our engineers can locate your leak quickly using non-invasive technology.
Insurance Claims & Trace and Access
If you're claiming on your home insurance for water damage, your policy may include trace and access cover. This typically pays for the investigation to find where the leak is coming from, separate from the cost of repairs.
Not sure whether your policy includes cover? Check your policy documents or contact your insurer before arranging your visit.
