Detecting Hidden Leaks – It’s What We Do
If you don’t identify leaks quickly, significant damage can be caused over time. Fortunately, we have methods required to effectively detect leaks in your home or business.
No matter how small or big the leak, we will find the source – fast.
Our Leak Detection Equipment
Thermal imaging
We use an infra-red camera which shows us the hot and cold surfaces on the cameral, enabling us to find water leaks under floors and behind walls without the need to lift floors and remove walls.
Non-Destructive Moisture Meters
These meters use radio frequency to find moisture behind ceramic tiles, vinyl floor coverings, wood, drywall, masonry and concrete without the need of removing them. This is used as a quick method to carry out a moisture map of the property so we can then investigate further.
Gas Trace Detection
The trace gas is a mixture of hydrogen and nitrogen which is connected to the suspected leaking pipe. As the gas mixture is light it rapidly works its way to the surface of the leaking area and can be detected with detection probes.
Boro Scope
This is an optical device on a long flexible tube with a camera on one end. This is used to find leaks in confined spaces, preventing disruption.

Leak Detection FAQs
Signs of a water leak include:
Unusual, low water pressure
Cracks in your property’s foundations
Water sounds (e.g. bubbling from the sink, or whistling from pipes)
Unpleasant odour from dirty water
If you think your bill is higher than usual and nothing has changed significantly day to day, there could be a leaking pipe at your property. We can help find out if this is the case
Leaks can be dangerous in a number of ways. Over time, they can cause structural issues to your property, as well as have the potential to cause harm to your health – as the leak might not solely be water.
The most effective way to identify where a leak is coming from is to contact specialists like Restorations (UK). Unless the source is immediately obvious, you will need the right tools and technology to find where the leak is coming from.
