Trace & Access Leak Detection | JD Leak Detection

Non-invasive leak detection for insurance claims • London & South East

What is Trace & Access Leak Detection?

Trace & Access is a specialist method for locating and exposing hidden water leaks in your property – without unnecessary damage. Using advanced tools like thermal imaging, tracer gas, and acoustic sensors, we accurately trace leaks beneath floors, within walls, or above ceilings. Then, we carefully access the area to expose the leak with minimal disruption.

Most UK home insurance policies include Trace & Access cover, which pays for both the detection and minimal access required. That means we help save you time, money, and hassle.

Why Choose JD Leak Detection?

  • Insurance Expertise: Full reports for your insurer included.
  • No Find, No Fee: You only pay if we locate the leak.
  • Minimal Disruption: Non-invasive tools protect your property.
  • Same-Day Service: Available across London and the South East.

Our Process

  1. Survey: We assess signs like damp, mould, or pressure loss.
  2. Trace: We use thermal cameras, acoustic sensors, and gas testing to locate the source.
  3. Access: Small, targeted access is made to expose the leak.
  4. Report: We provide a full digital report with photos for insurance claims.
  5. Repair Support: We can recommend trusted repair engineers if needed.

London Water Leak Trace and Access Experts

There are many reasons why people may need to have pipework replacements or water main replacements in their home or property.
Split pipes and burst pipes are a common nightmare for many people in their home. Once the pipes start to split they will just keep splitting and the fittings will start to burst here and there around the house, often at the worst time. All homeowners and even those renting should be aware of the signs of deteriorating pipes, bursting or splitting pipes, and suspect looking joints in your pipework which may cause at the very least a nuisance, and in more extreme cases a disaster incurring massive cost in damages to your building or posessions.
