Retail leak detection across Buckinghamshire.
From Milton Keynes and Aylesbury to High Wycombe and Taplow, we find hidden leaks in shops, supermarkets and retail park units across Buckinghamshire, usually without digging up the floor or the car park.
Leak detection services in Buckinghamshire.
From a slow supply-pipe leak inflating the water bill to a ceiling drip from the unit upstairs. If water is going where it shouldn’t, we can find where it starts.
Water mains & underground
Supply pipes under car parks, service yards and slab floors. The usual suspect behind a water bill that has quietly doubled.
Find out moreHeating & pipework
Commercial central heating and underfloor systems losing pressure. Tracer gas and thermal imaging find the break with the floor still in place.
Find out moreRoof & ceiling leaks
Flat roofs, rooflights, box gutters and drips from the unit above. We trace the water back to where it gets in, which is rarely where it shows up.
Find out moreUnder-floor & slab
Pipes buried in screed beneath tiles, vinyl and timber. Located from above, so the shop floor stays whole.
Find out moreWashrooms & staff areas
Customer toilets, staff kitchens and cleaners’ cupboards. Small rooms with a lot of pipework, and the source of most damp patches next door.
Find out moreDrains & CCTV surveys
Blocked, cracked or leaking drains in service yards and beneath units, surveyed with CCTV drain cameras and pressure testing.
Find out moreDamp & structural ingress
Penetrating damp, basement stock rooms and party walls. Moisture mapping shows what is a leak and what is condensation.

Four steps from the first phone call to a marked-up floor and a report in your inbox.
Call us
Tell us what you have seen: a damp patch, a pressure drop, a bill that jumped. We match the right engineer and kit to the job and agree a time for the visit.
Engineer on site
A qualified leak engineer arrives with thermal imaging, acoustic sensors, tracer gas and correlators in the van. Every engineer has at least ten years’ experience.
Non-invasive survey
We test, listen and scan until the evidence points to one spot. Water, heating or drainage, above ground or below, with the floor and fit-out left alone.
Pinpointed and reported
You get the exact location, thermal images and a written report for your insurer. Where the repair is straightforward we aim to complete it on the same visit.
We aim to find and repair your leak on the same day wherever the job allows.
See the full processThe equipment we use.
Leak detection is a question of evidence. We bring every method to every job, so the answer comes from agreement between them rather than a guess from one.
Thermal imaging cameras
Show the temperature difference a hot-water or heating leak leaves in tiles, plaster and screed.
Acoustic listening & ground mics
Hear pressurised water escaping beneath concrete, tarmac and block paving.
Tracer gas detection
A safe hydrogen and nitrogen mix put through the pipe escapes at the break and is picked up at the surface.
Leak correlators
Two sensors on a water main calculate the position of the leak between them.
Borescope cameras
See inside voids, ducts and behind fitted units through a hole the size of a coin.
Moisture meters
Map how far the water has travelled and separate a leak from condensation.
CCTV drain cameras
Survey drains, gullies and interceptors from the inside.
Pressure testing
Confirm which circuit is losing water before anyone starts looking for it.
Drone roof inspection
Survey large flat roofs and rooflights without scaffolding or a cherry picker.

Do you cover the whole of Buckinghamshire?
Yes. Our engineers cover all of Buckinghamshire, along with the rest of England, Scotland and Wales. The towns and retail parks on this page are the ones on the map, not a limit, so call with your postcode and we will confirm the nearest engineer.
Can you survey several units on the same retail park?
Yes. With access arranged for each unit, one engineer can survey neighbouring units and the shared supply in a single visit, which keeps disruption down.
Who pays for a leak on a shared retail park supply?
That depends on the leases. Supply pipes on a retail park are often shared between units or kept by the landlord, so check your lease and speak to the managing agent. Our report shows exactly where the leak is, which is what the lease is then applied to. Read the guide.
Will the store have to close while you work?
Usually not. The survey is non-invasive, so the shop can usually keep trading while we work.
