Acoustic Listening

Water escaping from a pipe underground will generally create a sound. Using specialised acoustic sensors and equipment, we can follow the sounds emanating from leaks in underground pipes which will grow stronger as the sensors move closer to the leak.

Utilising this method, a leak can generally be pinpointed not only to the particular pipe responsible but also to the particular point along that pipe where the leak is located.

Once pinpointed an excavation can be carried out at the precise position of the leak and the leak can be repaired.
