Leak Detection in Windsor, Datchet and Slough
Our registered office is in Datchet, so Windsor, Old Windsor, Slough and Langley are on our regular route for non-invasive leak surveys.
Leaks in Windsor, Datchet and Slough homes
Datchet and Old Windsor are village houses and riverside homes on clay near the Thames, Windsor has Victorian terraces and large houses towards the Great Park, and Slough and Langley are 1930s semis and post-war estates with solid floors. Riverside ground means damp is common and separating a plumbing leak from ground water matters.
We cover SL1, SL3 and SL4. Supply pipe leaks in the village houses are traced with acoustic listening and tracer gas at drains and chambers. In the Slough semis the usual job is a heating leak in the screed, found with tracer gas and thermal imaging. Bathroom leaks are traced with dye tests and moisture readings, and every report states whether the water is from the plumbing or the ground.
Parking is easy in the villages and around Slough. The report covers cause, location and damage with readings and photographs for a trace and access claim.
What we detect in Windsor, Datchet and Slough
Water mains and underground leak detection
Leaking supply pipes under driveways, gardens and concrete floors, located with acoustic and tracer gas kit so only one small excavation is needed.
Mains & underground
Water leak detection
Hidden leaks behind walls, under floors and in ceilings, pinpointed with thermal, acoustic and tracer gas kit before anything is opened up.
Water leaks
Central heating leak detection
A boiler that keeps dropping pressure means water is escaping somewhere in the heating circuit. We find the pipe or fitting and fix it.
Heating leaks
Acoustic leak detection
A ground microphone listens for the sound of water escaping under pressure through floors, concrete and paving, and the reading peaks directly over the leak.
Acoustic

Insurance reportsFrom your first call to a leak you can see in the report
Call or WhatsApp with a few photos and a line about the symptoms. We ask a handful of questions, agree a fixed price and book the survey, usually for the same or the next day.
On arrival we pressure test the mains, hot water and heating, check the meter and test the escaping water, so we know what we are looking for before the detection starts.
Thermal imaging, the acoustic ground microphone and tracer gas are used as the pipework dictates until the leak is marked on the floor or wall.
You get a written report with readings, thermal images and photographs, ready for a trace and access claim. If you want the leak fixed, we open that one spot and repair it.
