Our Leak Detection Services
We offer a comprehensive range of leak detection services to locate leaks anywhere in your Stony Stratford property โ 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 expert water leak detection services that pinpoint the exact leak location.

Underground Leak Detection
We locate leaks in buried supply pipes, service pipes and drainage systems across gardens and driveways with professional underground leak tracing.

Full commercial leak detection and repair for offices, retail, hospitality, healthcare and industrial properties across Stony Stratford.
Trace and Access
Insurance-approved trace and access investigation services with detailed leak repair investigation 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
Sensitive acoustic listening devices detect the sound of water escaping under pressure. Excellent for tracing leaks in mains supply pipes and pressurised systems.
Tracer Gas Detection
For heating systems and underfloor circuits, specialist tracer gas methods introduce 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 Stony Stratford Property Types
Stony Stratford's property mix presents unique challenges for leak detection. As one of the original market towns absorbed into Milton Keynes, the area includes everything from historic Georgian and Victorian properties along the High Street to 20th-century housing estates and more recent developments. Each construction type has different pipe materials, layouts and common leak points.
Period and Historic Properties
The older properties around Stony Stratford's High Street and Market Square often have a mix of original and updated plumbing. Many date back several centuries and feature complex pipe runs through thick walls and beneath stone or timber floors. Leaks commonly occur at joints between different pipe materials. Our thermal imaging and moisture mapping can trace these hidden pipe routes without opening up the structure.
Post-War and Modern Estates
Much of Stony Stratford's residential housing stock dates from the mid-to-late 20th century, with developments in areas like Fullers Slade and Galley Hill. While newer plastic pipework is less prone to corrosion, leaks still occur at joints, manifolds and connections. Many properties also have underfloor heating, which requires specialist detection when a leak develops in the circuit.
Commercial and Mixed-Use Properties
Stony Stratford has a thriving high street with numerous commercial premises, from independent shops and cafรฉs to offices and hospitality venues. We provide comprehensive 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 โ 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 1โ4 hours for domestic properties and 2โ6 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 trace and access survey 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.
