Leak detection in Ealing, found at the source.
Specialist trace and access across the London Borough of Ealing — Acton, Hanwell, Southall, Greenford and all W and UB postcodes. Equipment-led, non-invasive, insurance-ready.
How we find hidden leaks
We use four specialist detection methods — often in combination. The right approach depends on your property type and what the initial assessment reveals.
Thermal Imaging
We scan walls, floors, and ceilings with a thermal camera to detect temperature changes caused by moisture — without touching anything.
Acoustic Profiling
Highly sensitive microphones detect the sound of escaping water through concrete, masonry, and screed — effective through solid floors common in Ealing's older housing.
Moisture Mapping
Electronic deep-wall probing tracks the spread of dampness back to its origin point, building a precise map of the affected area.
Tracer Gas
A safe, inert gas is introduced into the pipe. It escapes at the leak point and is detected at the surface — giving an exact location even beneath floor screed or concrete.
Leak detection services across Ealing
From Edwardian semis in Hanwell to conversion flats in Acton — these are the most common issues we help Ealing residents and landlords resolve.
Underfloor Leaks
Common beneath the solid floors of Ealing's Edwardian semis and inter-war terraces. Located using acoustic and thermal methods — no unnecessary lifting of tiles or screed.
Leaks Behind Walls
Failed pipe joints concealed behind plasterboard or tiling — mapped precisely through moisture scanning before any access work, from W5 semis to Acton conversion flats.
Ceiling Leak Sourcing
Water appearing through a ceiling is common in Ealing's converted flats and newer apartment blocks. We trace the exact origin — not just the visible drip point.
Heating System Loss
Central heating systems that repeatedly lose pressure in Ealing properties — diagnosed with pressure testing and tracer gas. Common in properties with underfloor heating circuits.
