The diverse range of innovative non-destructive leak detection techniques we use are designed to quickly and accurately pinpoint leak locations on underground water leaks, heating systems and building envelopes. Trace provide methodical and scientific testing for the diagnosis of building defects. Proper diagnosis and detailed understanding of building faults ensures that our clients only undertake the appropriate remedial works.
We provide construction phase compliance testing for membrane integrity material moisture content and building air tightness. We also provide testing and certification for BREEAM. Our data loggers can remotely monitor a wide range of physical and environmental conditions. Data is sent through the mobile networks and is viewable on our secure Web-Bureau.
Symptom - Water had been dripping through the ceiling for several weeks. A kitchen and toilet were located above the drips but no visible leaks or damp was present in this area. Ultrasound is an extremely effective tool to detect leaks through glazed cladding systems.

Leaks in heating systems are actually quite a common problem.
Corroded pipes, failed couplings, rodent damage and even faulty materials are some of the most common causes of leaks that we come across.
The location of some leaks may be obvious but when they do not present themselves, Trace Surveys have several ways of pinpointing leaks non-destructively.
We have successfully surveyed thousands of heating systems which range from small domestic to large commercial district systems.
After carrying out initial checks on your heating system, we will employ several different leak detection techniques to help us locate the problem.

We offer leak detection services on a vast array of roof types and materials.
In most instances, we can test any roof construction ranging from exposed membrane, green or brown roofs, standing seam metallic systems to traditional tile and batten.
We combine lots of leaks detection techniques to help us to identify roof leak location.
These are some examples of some of the techniques that we use on a regular basis.
Thermography is an extremely useful tool which allows us to assess subtle changes in levels of thermal radiation on the building surface.

Thermal Imaging allows us to see the effect of a hot or cold water pipe influencing the temperature of the building finishes around it.
Where a leak is present we can often see a spreading area around the line of the pipe where the hot or cold water is heating or cooling a wider area than intact section of pipe.
We use very sensitive microphones to listen to and measure the noise level over a pipe.
Escaping water or gas from a pipe will make noise so the position of the leak is determined by assessing the leak noise level over the pipes length.

There are many different types of building facades which we come across.
Trace Surveys have an unrivalled range of different systems to detect leaks through any type of cladding.
The following gives an outline of the most common techniques that we use.
Thermal imaging allows us to measure and see the emitted thermal radiation from surfaces on buildings.
If a defect influences the amount of retained thermal energy inside a building element this will have an effect on the rate at which that element emits thermal radiation.

Leak detection in Swimming Pools is something Trace Surveys have a lot of experience in.
Whether your pool is a large commercial facility, domestic pool or even a natural pool, Trace Surveys have the expertise and equipment to locate your leaks.
If your pool is leaking, please give us a call to discuss survey options that suit your facility.
Trace Gas Leak Detection - The pipes are sealed and an inert gas is injected into the leaking pipe.
The trace gas permeates most soils and finishes and is detectable at surface level using a special sensor.
