Pressure line survey
Tracing hidden hot and cold supply lines by listening along the run.
Water leak detection
Pinpoint the leak before anything breaks
Sensitive listening equipment picks up the sound of escaping water inside the wall and marks the exact spot before any tile or plaster is touched.

What the service covers
Precise acoustic tracing of hidden water lines inside walls, floors and ceilings.
Leak point marking
Locating the exact leak position and marking it on the surface before any work.
Pressure-assisted test
Keeping the line pressurised to amplify the leak sound and sharpen its location.
Concealed branch check
Checking concealed branch lines to isolate which single pipe is leaking.
Leak location report
Giving the customer a clear report of the leak position and pipe path before repair.
Link to camera detection
Combining acoustic listening with camera inspection when final confirmation is needed.
How the job runs
Call or WhatsApp
Describe the symptoms, damp location or bill rise when you first contact us.
Appointment confirmed
A visit time is set to suit your schedule, including emergency hours.
Acoustic survey
Technician scans walls and floors with the listening device, tracking signal changes.
Point located and marked
Exact leak position is confirmed, marked on the surface, and shown to the customer.
Report handed over
Report with leak position and line details is handed over with a repair recommendation.
Equipment and methods used
Ground contact microphone
Picks up minute vibrations from escaping water through tile, plaster or screed.
Noise-cancelling headset
Isolates background noise from AC units and movement so only the leak signal remains clear.
Frequency-selective probe
Distinguishes the leak frequency from other pipe sounds to identify the faulty line specifically.
Digital signal amplifier
Amplifies faint signals from deeply buried pipes or those covered by thick concrete layers.
Before you call
Note the suspect surface
Note any cold-to-touch walls, damp patches or peeling paint and describe their exact location.
Check your recent bill
Have your last 2 bills ready; a sudden rise confirms an active leak and helps document the case.
Clear the water meter
Make sure the main water meter is accessible; the technician needs it at the start of inspection.
Switch off water appliances
Turn off the washing machine, water-cooled units and similar appliances to reduce background noise.

What decides the price
No fixed rate applies; these factors shape the quote for each job.
Number of suspect lines
More lines to survey means more listening time and a higher total cost.
Pipe material and age
Old galvanised iron pipes dampen the sound signal and take longer to survey.
Covering layer thickness
Thick screed or deep backfill weakens the signal and may require additional equipment.
Visit timing
Emergency calls at night or on holidays are priced differently from standard appointments.
Combined with other services
Adding camera inspection or repair in the same visit affects the total cost.

Common questions

Does acoustic listening work through thick ceramic flooring?
Yes, the probe picks up vibrations through tile and the bedding mortar beneath it. A thick floor layer weakens the signal, but a digital amplifier compensates and still gives a reliable result.
Can acoustic listening detect a hot water line leak inside a wall?
Hot water lines under pressure produce a distinctive sound when leaking due to the combination of heat and pressure, which makes them easier to detect acoustically than cold lines at low pressure.
What if the leak sound is too faint for the device to detect?
The technician can raise line pressure slightly to amplify the sound. If the signal remains unclear, acoustic listening is combined with camera inspection to confirm the exact location without breaking anything.
Is acoustic leak listening suitable for commercial buildings, not just homes?
The service covers apartments, offices, restaurants and residential complexes. Commercial pipe runs are often more complex, so the technician assesses the number of lines to survey before starting.
Is acoustic detection alone enough, or is a camera always needed too?
For most pressurised supply line leaks, acoustic listening alone pinpoints the location with enough accuracy for repair. A camera is added only when the line may have multiple leak points or when the acoustic signal is inconclusive.
