We have three ways in which we locate a leak using our leak detection equipment:<\/strong>
1.<\/strong> Stethophone – Acoustic sound equipment used for ground and walls. This method is first choice in locating a leak which is not visable on a property.

2.<\/strong> Hydrogen Gas – We pump Hydrogen Gas through your pipe system, and use a ‘Snooper’ detector unit to find gas readings to locate and pin point your leak.

3<\/strong>. Thermal Imaging – Thermal imaging allows for a heat radiated image to be broadcast to a hand held camera. This allows us to see any hot water leakage, and heat differentials in walls and floors. This will also form part of the post leak detection report.

Leak detection allows for locating of leaks which cannot be found, or pin pointing of leaks which are noticeable across a broad area. In today’s water crisis, leaking pipes and water wastage are issues which cannot be left unattended. With our state-of-the-art equipment and water leak detection services combined with our plumbing repair service, we have saved homeowners, commercial building owners and landlords litres of water leaking away.

Limited water supplies cannot be diminished wastefully for everyone in the Western Cape, and any leaking pipes can lead to hefty bills and associated fines.<\/p>\n
