Water Leak Investigation
Water leaks cause costly structural damage, mould growth, and interior deterioration. The key to preventing extensive repairs is fast, accurate leak detection — pinpointing exactly where water is getting in before the problem spreads.
From leak detection to lasting repair
Our IRATA-certified rope access technicians carry out targeted inspections of façades, roofs, windows and joints, combining visual assessment, water testing and thermal imaging to trace the precise source of water ingress. You receive a detailed report identifying every problem area and the weathertightness issues behind it.
We don't just find the leak — we fix it. From re-sealing failed joints and gaskets to roof leak repair and waterproofing of vulnerable details, our team restores the building envelope and protects it against future water ingress.
Because we access problem areas directly on rope — no scaffolding, no cranes — we cut investigation time, keep costs down, and minimise disruption to building occupants.

FAQs
How quickly can you respond to a leak?
We offer rapid-response leak investigations, often within 24–48 hours.
Will you fix the leak during the inspection?
In many cases, yes - if the repair is straightforward and approved.
Do you guarantee finding the leak?
We use proven detection methods, but some cases may require multiple inspections if the leak is intermittent.
Is thermal imaging always necessary?
Not always, but it's very effective for hidden leaks.
Can you work during rainy weather?
We can investigate during light rain if safety allows - often beneficial for tracing active leaks.
