LEAK DETECTION

A Hidden Leak Can Cause Serious Damage — If You Don’t Act Fast


Leaks behind walls, under floors, or within roofs can go undetected for weeks. By the time you see the damage, it’s already affected plaster, flooring, joists, insulation — even your tenant’s health. We’re often called in when clients face:


  • Damp spots or stains with no clear source

  • Unexplained spikes in water bills or system pressure drops

  • Mould, odours, or condensation in odd locations

  • Failed moisture tests or drying efforts after water damage

  • Delays in insurance claims due to lack of leak confirmation

  • The need to trace leaks without unnecessary strip-out or guesswork


At Eighty Eight, our leak detection service includes:


  • Thermal imaging to locate temperature anomalies caused by escaping water

  • Acoustic detection for pinpointing pressurised pipe leaks

  • Moisture mapping using calibrated meters

  • Tracer dye and pressure testing if required

  • Endoscope camera inspections for hard-to-access voids

  • Full reporting for insurers, landlords, or contractors

  • Optional follow-up for drying, mould removal, and reinstatement


We Detect Leaks In:


  • Rented homes, HMOs, and voids

  • Offices, commercial properties, and warehouses
