Why Choose Leak Detection?
Fast, Local Response
Based in Coventry, we prioritise urgent leaks and offer emergency call-outs to limit water damage and disruption to your home or business.
Accurate, Non‑Destructive Tracing
Specialist tools — thermal cameras, acoustic loggers, tracer gas and CCTV — mean we find hidden leaks behind walls, under floors or beneath slabs without needless breaking out.
Hidden leaks demand specialist techniques. From slow hairline drips in older terraced houses to mains leaks under concrete in new builds, Example Plumbing & Heating use proven diagnostics to locate the source quickly. We pair thermal imaging with acoustic listening and tracer gas where necessary, then confirm the issue with CCTV camera surveys of drainage and pipe runs. That approach reduces unnecessary strip-out and helps protect plaster, flooring and joists in Coventry homes and commercial properties.
Repair, test and prevent. Once located, repairs are carried out using targeted methods — clamp/repair, pipe replacement or fitting new service connections — and we pressure-test the system before we leave. We provide a clear report of the fault, the work completed and practical steps to prevent recurrence, such as insulation, system flushing or replacing ageing copper/MDPE runs. Gas work is handled by our Gas Safe registered engineers and all jobs are fully insured.

Frequently Asked Questions
We start with non-invasive tools: thermal imaging highlights cooler damp areas, acoustic leak detectors pick up the sound of escaping water, and moisture meters map the extent of damp. If needed, tracer gas or CCTV pipe surveys pinpoint the position precisely so repairs are targeted and demolition is kept to a minimum.
