How this method helps
Listening at selected points allows sound to be compared along a likely supply route. The interpretation depends on pipework, pressure and the environment. An acoustic finding may be checked against other evidence before access is agreed.
Where it can be useful
- Buried supply pipes
- Pressurised water loss
- Narrowing an excavation area
What the findings cannot tell us alone
Traffic, machinery, pipe material and quiet leaks can limit this method.
How it fits into your visit
We start with the symptoms, the system layout and previous findings. The engineer chooses suitable checks, compares the results and explains any further access required. Selecting an appropriate detection method is part of the residential package.
Give us the property postcode, the affected rooms and any relevant access restrictions before the appointment. If the investigation needs water or heating to be isolated, arrangements are explained first.
