Underground Water Leak Detection

Acoustic listening and correlation equipment to locate buried water-line leaks under lawns, driveways and slabs.

About this service

A hidden underground leak can triple your water bill and undermine your property. Our acoustic listening and correlation equipment locates buried water-line leaks under lawns, driveways and slabs with pinpoint accuracy and minimal digging.

What's included

  • Acoustic ground microphone detection
  • Leak noise correlation
  • Pinpointing under lawns, driveways and slabs
  • Minimal excavation, tidy worksite

Our process

  1. 1

    Listen

    Acoustic equipment detects the sound of escaping water.

  2. 2

    Correlate

    Correlation equipment narrows the leak to a precise point.

  3. 3

    Mark

    We mark the exact dig location to minimise disruption.

Warning signs

Signs you may have a leak

Noticing one or more of these? It is worth getting it checked early — catching a leak sooner keeps repair costs and water damage down.

  • A sudden, unexplained jump in your water bill
  • The water meter ticking over when no taps are running
  • Damp or unusually green patches on the lawn
  • Reduced water pressure through the house
  • The sound of running water when everything is turned off

Frequently asked questions

How much digging is involved?
Our goal is to keep excavation to an absolute minimum. By pinpointing the exact location first, we can mark a single small dig spot rather than trenching the whole line.
Can you find leaks under concrete and driveways?
Yes. Acoustic ground microphones and correlation equipment work through concrete, pavers and slabs, so we can locate leaks without tearing up the surface to look.
How accurate is the location you provide?
Correlation equipment typically narrows a buried leak to within a small area, which means repairs are faster, cheaper and far less disruptive.
