Beyond Peacehaven, our 15 years of experience extends throughout East Sussex, serving surrounding areas within 20 minutes:
For urgent leak situations causing active property damage in Peacehaven, we offer emergency same-day service when you call 0800 916 8602 before 2pm. Our 15 years serving East Sussex means we understand the urgency of coastal property leaks where salt-laden atmospheres accelerate corrosion and damage. Emergency appointments available for residential and commercial properties throughout the BN10 area, with comprehensive leak detection technology deployed immediately to prevent further water damage and costly structural deterioration.
Our investment in professional-grade acoustic leak detection equipment represents the cornerstone of underground and concealed pipe leak investigation. Unlike basic listening devices, our advanced correlation systems analyze sound frequencies across multiple sensor points simultaneously, creating a precise acoustic map of water escape. When pressurized water escapes through even the smallest hole in a pipe, it generates distinctive frequencies typically between 100Hz and 2000Hz - sounds completely inaudible to human hearing but clearly detectable by our sensitive microphones. The technology filters out ambient noise from traffic along the A259, sea wind interference, and neighboring property sounds, isolating only the acoustic signature of escaping water. Through correlation analysis comparing timing differences between sensors, we triangulate leak positions with remarkable accuracy - typically within 30cm even through concrete, tarmac, or multiple layers of building materials.
The practical benefit this delivers for Peacehaven properties cannot be overstated. Traditional leak detection methods would require excavating entire pipe runs - potentially digging up your driveway, garden, or even breaking through your floor slab - at costs ranging from £3,000 to £10,000 before even locating the leak. Our acoustic technology pinpoints the exact location first, allowing targeted access through a minimal opening typically measuring just 50cm x 50cm. For underground supply pipes running from the street to properties along Dorothy Avenue or Piddinghoe Avenue, this precision saves homeowners thousands in unnecessary excavation costs while dramatically reducing disruption time from weeks to days. The technology proves equally effective for concealed heating pipes within floor screeds, detecting circulation system leaks that would otherwise require lifting entire rooms of flooring to locate through trial and error investigation methods.
Thermal imaging technology has revolutionized non-invasive leak detection by making hidden water leaks visible through solid surfaces. Our professional thermal cameras detect temperature variations to 0.1°C sensitivity, displaying heat patterns as color-coded images where blue indicates cooler areas and red shows warmer zones. When water leaks from hot pipes, it creates distinctive warm spots; cold water leaks produce cool zones; and any moisture accumulation shows characteristic thermal signatures different from surrounding dry materials. This capability proves invaluable for Peacehaven's older properties where pipes run behind original plasterwork, within cavity walls, or beneath suspended timber floors where physical access would require destructive investigation costing thousands in restoration alone.
The expertise developed over 15 years of thermal imaging work allows us to distinguish between actual leaks and common false readings that can mislead inexperienced operators. Thermal bridging through structural elements, solar heating effects on external walls, and normal condensation patterns all create temperature variations that superficially resemble leaks. Our trained technicians interpret thermal data within the context of building construction, weather conditions, and heating system operation, achieving 95-98% accuracy in leak identification. For Peacehaven's seafront properties facing south along the coast, we account for solar heating effects that would confuse less experienced operators. For properties in Harbour Heights with modern insulation, we adjust camera sensitivity to penetrate thermal barriers that basic equipment cannot overcome. This combination of advanced technology and interpretive expertise transforms thermal imaging from a simple scanning tool into a precision leak detection instrument that saves property owners thousands in unnecessary exploratory work while providing definitive answers about concealed water leaks.
For leak scenarios where thermal imaging and acoustic methods prove challenging - particularly plastic pipes within floor screeds or underfloor heating systems - tracer gas detection provides the definitive solution. We inject a harmless gas mixture (typically hydrogen and nitrogen) into the isolated pipe system at controlled pressure. The gas, being smaller molecularly than water, escapes through leak points and permeates upward through floor constructions, emerging at the surface directly above the leak location. Our ultra-sensitive detection probe, capable of measuring gas concentrations in parts per million, traces the surface until identifying the exact emergence point - pinpointing the leak location with extraordinary precision even through multiple layers of concrete, insulation, and floor finishes.
This technology has proven essential for Peacehaven's newer properties in areas like Harbour Heights where modern construction methods utilize plastic pipe systems within floor screeds. Traditional acoustic detection struggles with plastic pipes because they don't transmit sound as effectively as copper or steel. Thermal imaging faces challenges when underfloor heating operates because the entire floor shows warm signatures. Tracer gas circumvents both limitations, providing leak location regardless of pipe material or heating system operation. The method requires expertise in calculating appropriate gas pressures, understanding gas migration through different floor constructions, and interpreting detection probe readings - skills refined over our 15 years of service. For property owners, this expertise translates directly into cost savings: instead of lifting entire floors at £5,000-£12,000 to find leaks through elimination, we identify the exact location for targeted access typically costing under £1,000 including repairs.
Locating the leak source represents only part of comprehensive leak detection service. Understanding the full extent of moisture penetration proves equally critical for proper remediation and insurance documentation. Our advanced moisture mapping equipment includes calibrated moisture meters, humidity sensors, and infrared cameras working together to create detailed maps showing moisture distribution throughout affected areas. These measurements distinguish between surface dampness requiring simple drying and deep moisture penetration indicating structural damage requiring professional restoration. The data proves invaluable when coordinating insurance claims, providing quantified evidence of damage extent that supports proper compensation for remediation work.
For Peacehaven properties, particularly older constructions where leaks may have persisted undetected for extended periods, moisture mapping reveals hidden damage that visual inspection alone would miss. Timber floor joists may show surface dryness while retaining dangerous moisture levels internally - information critical for structural safety assessment. Wall cavities may contain moisture accumulation invisible from room surfaces but representing serious rot risks. Our 15 years of experience interpreting moisture data allows us to predict likely damage extent, estimate drying timeframes, and recommend appropriate remediation strategies. This comprehensive approach transforms leak detection from simple leak location into complete water damage assessment, ensuring property owners understand the full scope of issues requiring attention while preventing future problems from undiscovered moisture accumulation.
Peacehaven's unique position as a planned coastal town constructed predominantly between the 1920s and 1970s creates specific leak detection challenges requiring specialist knowledge and equipment. The original development vision brought thousands of properties onto the clifftop, many utilizing construction methods and materials typical of their era but now reaching end-of-service life. Original lead and iron pipes installed 70-100 years ago in the earliest developments around South Coast Road and Dorothy Avenue now experience accelerated corrosion from the coastal environment's salt-laden atmosphere. Post-war properties along Piddinghoe Avenue and Arundel Road utilized copper piping that typically lasts 50-70 years - meaning many installations now approach failure point. More recent developments in Harbour Heights employ modern plastic pipe systems that, while corrosion-resistant, present different leak detection challenges requiring specialized technology our 15 years of experience has taught us to navigate expertly.
The coastal clifftop location introduces additional factors complicating leak detection and increasing urgency when leaks occur. Properties built on or near the cliff edge face ground movement concerns where even small leaks can accelerate soil erosion and subsidence risks - making early detection absolutely critical for structural safety. The prevailing winds from the sea carry salt that accelerates all metal corrosion, meaning pipe failures develop faster in Peacehaven than in inland locations. High water tables in low-lying areas mean that underground leaks can quickly create water accumulation problems affecting foundations and below-ground structures. Our 15 years serving the area has developed specific expertise addressing these coastal challenges, from accounting for salt corrosion patterns when interpreting acoustic data to understanding how clifftop geology affects moisture migration patterns detected by thermal imaging.
The concentration of retired residents and holiday properties throughout Peacehaven creates additional urgency for professional leak detection services. Properties left unoccupied for weeks or months may develop significant leaks that go unnoticed until substantial damage occurs - damage that professional early detection could prevent entirely. Elderly property owners may not recognize early leak warning signs or may lack the physical capability to investigate strange sounds or damp patches thoroughly. Insurance companies increasingly require professional leak detection reports before authorizing major repairs or damage claims, recognizing that our technology provides definitive evidence of leak causes and locations that protects both homeowners and insurers from fraudulent or inaccurate claims. For Peacehaven property owners, engaging specialist leak detection at the first sign of problems - unexplained water bill increases, damp patches, strange sounds, or pressure drops - prevents minor issues escalating into major damage scenarios costing tens of thousands in repairs while providing comprehensive documentation that supports smooth insurance claim processes.
The Challenge: Homeowners on Dorothy Avenue near the clifftop noticed their quarterly water bill had trebled from £140 to £420 over two billing periods. Visual inspection revealed no obvious leaks inside the property, but the front garden showed a persistently damp patch near the boundary wall. Two local plumbers investigated but couldn't locate the leak source, recommending excavating the entire supply pipe run from the street to the property - estimated cost £6,500-£8,000 with no guarantee of finding the problem.
Our Solution: We deployed acoustic leak detection equipment along the suspected pipe route, placing correlation sensors at the street stopcock and property entry point. The acoustic analysis identified a distinctive leak signature 8.2 meters from the street connection. Thermal imaging confirmed the finding, showing a subsurface cold zone at the predicted location. We marked the exact spot, allowing the homeowners to engage a contractor for targeted excavation of just 1.2 square meters rather than the entire pipe run.
The Outcome: The contractor found the leak precisely where indicated - a corroded section of aging copper pipe requiring replacement. Total costs: leak detection £495, excavation and repair £1,850, reinstatement £380 = £2,725 total. The homeowners saved approximately £4,500-£5,500 compared to speculative excavation, while our 12 months warranty provided confidence the issue was definitively resolved. Water bills returned to normal, eliminating the ongoing waste of 800+ liters daily. Our 15 years of experience interpreting acoustic data in coastal environments proved essential for distinguishing the leak signature from sea wind noise interference that confused previous investigators.
The Problem: A relatively new property in Harbour Heights experienced unexplained pressure drops in their underfloor heating system, requiring weekly top-ups. The heating engineer suspected a leak within the floor screed but couldn't locate it without lifting the entire ground floor - quoted at £12,000-£15,000 for floor removal, leak location, repair, and reinstatement. The homeowners were devastated at potentially destroying their recently installed porcelain tile flooring.
Our Approach: Underfloor heating leaks present unique detection challenges because the entire floor shows warm thermal signatures when the system operates, masking leak-specific temperature patterns. We utilized tracer gas detection, isolating the underfloor heating circuit and introducing hydrogen-nitrogen gas mixture at controlled pressure. Using our ultra-sensitive detection probe, we systematically scanned the floor surface, measuring gas concentrations until identifying the emergence point. The process took approximately 4 hours, systematically covering all heated zones until detecting elevated gas concentrations in the living room near the patio doors - indicating the leak location beneath.
Results Achieved: Armed with precise leak coordinates, the heating contractor lifted just four tiles (60cm x 60cm area), cut through the screed at our marked location, and found the failed pipe connection exactly as predicted. Repair involved replacing a 50cm section of pipe with new plastic push-fit system, then re-screeding and replacing the tiles. Total cost: detection £695, repair £1,450, tile replacement £280 = £2,425 total. The homeowners saved £9,500-£12,500 compared to whole-floor removal, while preserving their expensive tiled flooring. Our 12 months warranty covered the detection accuracy, while the contractor warranted their repair. This case exemplifies how our 15 years of technology expertise and investment in specialized equipment like tracer gas systems delivers solutions impossible through conventional investigation methods.
Initial Situation: Homeowners in a 1930s property on Piddinghoe Avenue noticed persistent damp patches on their dining room ceiling, directly below the first-floor bathroom. The damp appeared intermittent - worse after bath or shower use, but sometimes absent for days. A bathroom fitter inspected and suggested the leak likely originated from shower tray, recommending complete bathroom strip-out and refit at £8,500-£11,000 since the exact source couldn't be identified without removing everything. The homeowners sought professional leak detection before committing to such extensive work.
Investigation Process: We conducted comprehensive thermal imaging surveys of both the bathroom and affected ceiling, capturing images before, during, and after water use to identify changing thermal patterns. The thermal data revealed that the ceiling damp corresponded not to the shower area as suspected, but to the bath waste pipe location. Further investigation using moisture meters traced the water path within the ceiling void. Pressure testing the waste system confirmed a leak, while acoustic listening pinpointed it to a specific section of concealed pipework within the bathroom wall cavity - the bath waste connection behind the original tiling.
Resolution & Savings: The plumber accessed the leak through a 30cm x 40cm opening in the bathroom wall, finding a corroded brass waste fitting that had developed a slow leak over months. Repair cost £320 for new fitting and resealing, with wall repair and retiling costing £580. Ceiling drying and redecoration below cost £420. Total: detection £395 + repairs £1,320 = £1,715 complete resolution. The homeowners saved approximately £7,000-£9,500 compared to the suggested full bathroom refit, while our 12 months warranty provided assurance the correct leak source had been identified and properly repaired. This case demonstrates the value of our 15 years of experience in distinguishing between different water sources - shower trays, waste pipes, supply pipes, or even condensation - through systematic investigation rather than speculative stripping based on assumptions.
Every leak detection service we provide comes with our comprehensive 12 months warranty covering detection accuracy and findings - a guarantee we can confidently offer because our 15 years of experience and advanced technology deliver consistent, reliable results. This warranty means that if we identify a leak location and subsequent investigation proves our findings incorrect, we return to reinvestigate completely free of charge, redeploying all necessary technology until we definitively locate the leak source. Unlike vague guarantees that some leak detection services offer with ambiguous terms and conditions, our warranty commitment is straightforward and unconditional: we stand behind our findings for a full year, providing you absolute confidence in the accuracy of our leak detection work.
The 12 months warranty period reflects our understanding of how leak repairs and property restoration typically unfold. Immediate repair work following our detection usually occurs within days or weeks, but subsequent drying, redecoration, and monitoring may extend over months. Property owners need confidence that if any moisture reappears or new concerns develop within that first year, we remain committed to verifying whether it represents a new issue or indicates our original detection missed something. Throughout the warranty period, you can contact us with any concerns, and we'll advise whether reinvestigation seems necessary or whether observed moisture represents normal drying processes - guidance based on our 15 years of experience with post-repair scenarios.
Our warranty claim rate stands below 3% across 15 years of service throughout East Sussex - testament to our detection accuracy and the reliability of our technology and expertise. The rare occasions when reinvestigation proves necessary typically involve highly complex scenarios: multiple leaks where we detected one but missed another; intermittent leaks that weren't active during initial investigation; or new leaks developing shortly after original detection (which we investigate to confirm timing). In all cases, we honor our commitment completely, redeploying all equipment and expertise necessary to resolve the situation at no additional charge. This warranty, combined with our 15 years of proven experience, provides property owners the confidence to proceed with repair work knowing that the substantial investment in remediation addresses the actual leak location rather than representing expensive guesswork that might prove incorrect.

Professional leak detection equipment achieves 95-98% accuracy in locating concealed water leaks when operated by experienced technicians. Our thermal imaging cameras detect temperature variations to 0.1°C, while acoustic correlation systems pinpoint leak positions within 30cm accuracy through walls, floors, and underground. Tracer gas detection provides even greater precision for challenging scenarios. However, technology alone doesn't guarantee accuracy - expertise in interpreting readings, understanding building construction, and recognizing false signals proves equally critical. Our 15 years of experience ensures we distinguish actual leaks from common false readings like thermal bridging, solar heating effects, or condensation patterns. This combination of advanced equipment and refined expertise delivers the industry-leading accuracy rates that our 12 months warranty confidently backs.
We utilize four primary detection technologies, selecting the most appropriate based on your specific leak scenario. Acoustic leak detection employs correlation analysis between multiple sensors to locate underground and concealed pipe leaks through sound frequency analysis. Thermal imaging cameras visualize temperature variations caused by escaping water, revealing hidden leaks behind walls, floors, and ceilings without any damage. Tracer gas detection introduces harmless gas into pipe systems, tracking its emergence at leak locations with ultra-sensitive probes - ideal for underfloor heating and plastic pipes. Advanced moisture mapping quantifies water penetration extent using calibrated meters and humidity sensors. Our 15 years of experience determines which technology combination will most effectively locate your specific leak, considering factors like pipe material, construction type, and leak symptoms.
Traditional plumbing leak detection relies primarily on visual inspection and experience-based guessing - essentially educated speculation about where leaks might be located. Plumbers may suggest "it's probably the shower tray" or "likely the pipe under the floor" based on symptom descriptions, but without technology confirmation, proceeding to repairs risks expensive work on the wrong location. Our 15 years of experience has seen numerous cases where plumbers recommended £5,000-£15,000 strip-outs based on assumptions, when our technology quickly identified completely different leak sources requiring minimal access repairs costing under £2,000. Professional leak detection equipment costs £15,000-£40,000 and requires specialized training to operate effectively - investments most plumbers cannot justify. We focus exclusively on leak detection, maintaining current technology and developing expertise that general plumbing work doesn't provide.
Most residential leak detection investigations complete within 2-4 hours depending on property size and leak complexity. Simple single-room investigations using thermal imaging may take just 90 minutes, while comprehensive whole-property surveys combining multiple technologies can extend to 5-6 hours. Tracer gas detection requires additional time for gas injection, migration, and systematic surface scanning - typically 3-4 hours minimum. Underground leak location varies from 1-3 hours depending on pipe route length and access point availability. Our 15 years of experience enables efficient technology deployment and rapid interpretation of findings, minimizing investigation time while maintaining thoroughness. Same-day service means we typically deliver verbal findings before leaving your property, with written reports following within 24-48 hours.
Yes - our comprehensive technology portfolio enables leak detection regardless of pipe material, system type, or installation location. Copper, steel, iron, lead, and plastic pipes all respond to our detection methods, though we select specific technologies based on material properties. Acoustic detection works excellently on metal pipes but requires tracer gas for plastic installations. We locate leaks in pressurized supply systems, unpressurized drainage pipes, heating circuits, underfloor heating, cooling systems, and even swimming pool plumbing. Underground, within walls, beneath floors, or above ceilings - our equipment accesses all locations non-invasively. Our 15 years serving Peacehaven's diverse property stock means we've encountered virtually every pipe configuration and installation method, developing approaches for even the most challenging detection scenarios.
Across 15 years of professional leak detection service, we maintain a 95-98% success rate in definitively locating reported leaks. The rare occasions when initial investigation proves inconclusive typically involve intermittent leaks not active during our survey, or situations where reported symptoms actually stem from non-leak causes like condensation or external water ingress. In such cases, we explain findings honestly, advise on monitoring strategies or additional investigation approaches, and adjust fees accordingly if we haven't delivered the leak location you engaged us to find. Our 12 months warranty means that if symptoms persist and suggest we missed something, we return to reinvestigate completely free of charge until we resolve the situation definitively. This commitment reflects our confidence in our technology and expertise - confidence built on consistent results over 15 years.
We focus exclusively on leak detection, providing you the precise leak location information that enables cost-effective repairs by your chosen contractor. This specialization ensures we maintain objectivity in our findings - we have no financial incentive to recommend unnecessary work since we don't profit from repairs. We can recommend trusted local contractors from our network developed over 15 years serving Peacehaven, or you're welcome to engage your own preferred professionals. Our detailed reports provide contractors clear guidance on leak locations, required access points, and recommended repair approaches. Many clients appreciate this separation, valuing our independent assessment without the potential conflict of interest that comes from detection companies who also undertake repairs.

For less urgent situations, we typically offer appointments within 24-48 hours throughout the BN10 area. Our 15 years serving East Sussex has taught us that leak detection speed directly correlates with damage limitation - every hour of delay allows more water escape and greater property deterioration. This understanding drives our commitment to rapid response and efficient investigation procedures that deliver answers fast.
Our 15 years serving Peacehaven has developed intimate knowledge of the town's property characteristics and the specific leak detection challenges they present. The original 1920s-1930s clifftop development brought bungalows and houses with lead and iron pipe installations now experiencing age-related failures accelerated by the salt-laden coastal atmosphere. These properties, concentrated along South Coast Road and in the earliest streets like Dorothy Avenue and Roderick Avenue, require careful acoustic investigation because corroded pipe materials transmit sound differently than modern installations - expertise we've refined over countless investigations in similar properties. Post-war development through the 1950s-1970s introduced copper piping and modern construction methods to areas like Piddinghoe Avenue and central Peacehaven, with these installations now reaching their 50-70 year typical lifespan and showing predictable failure patterns our experience recognizes immediately.
The 1990s-2000s saw extensive new development in areas like Harbour Heights, bringing modern construction standards, plastic pipe systems, and underfloor heating installations that require completely different detection approaches. These properties often show excellent surface condition but can conceal significant leaks within floor screeds or cavity walls - scenarios where our tracer gas technology proves essential. The clifftop location throughout Peacehaven introduces ground movement considerations where even small leaks can accelerate subsidence concerns, making early detection critical for property safety. Our understanding of local geology, construction practices across different development eras, and the coastal environment's effects on pipe materials enables us to approach each investigation with property-specific expertise that generic leak detection services cannot match. When you choose our service, you're not just accessing technology - you're benefiting from 15 years of accumulated knowledge about Peacehaven properties that transforms raw detection data into accurate, actionable leak location information.
Every day a leak continues, damage worsens and repair costs escalate. What starts as a minor damp patch can become structural deterioration, extensive mold growth, and foundation subsidence - transforming manageable repairs costing hundreds into catastrophic damage requiring tens of thousands to remediate. Professional leak detection stops this progression immediately, identifying exact leak locations with 95-98% accuracy while avoiding the property damage and excessive costs that excavation-based investigation creates.
