Your meter moves even when every tap is off
You shut everything off. But the little dial keeps turning.
The meter moves with every tap closed, water slipping away somewhere you cannot see. No idea where the leak hides.
You pay for litres you never use.
Four checks that track down your leak
We work through four checks to pin down where the water is going, starting with the meter.
-
The meter read
We watch the meter to confirm water is moving.
-
Side by side
We split hot and cold lines to narrow the search.
-
Listening in
We listen closely for the hiss of water escaping the pipe.
-
Heat on the wall
A thermal camera shows warm pipes behind the surface.

Frequently asked questions
Will you need to break my tiles or dig up the garden to find the leak?
No digging to find it. We use acoustic listening and a thermal camera to spot the leak without breaking anything first.

No. Any repair is quoted separately before any work starts, so you decide once you see the quote.
