We understand the stress of having an underground water leak and high water bills. Our leak detection specialists use non-invasive methods to find underground leaks.
The trace and access approach can pinpoint the location of a leak in pipes buried deep underground without needing to dig. It’s why it’s required by most insurers when processing an “escape of water” or “trace and access” claim.
Highly targeted excavation can then be carried out to fix the leak.
Leaks that are buried beneath solid surfaces, such as concrete, are often referred to as “slab leaks” or “concrete slab leaks“. Our leak detection specialists are equipped to pinpoint the location of every type of underground leak, slab leak, or underfloor leak.
This video shows some of the techniques used to find a leak buried beneath a concrete slab floor.
Several techniques are usually used during a thorough investigation.
Once found and exposed, our experts can make repairs and quote for any reinstatement work needed.

What a relief! Boiler pressure started dropping overnight, then twice a day. I gave up after looking everywhere for a leak, and having the boiler checked by the manufacturer. Ricky the engineer was great. Kept us updated, and explained the procedure every step of the way. Finally found a leak using gas detection, in a pipe embedded in the concrete floor! Fixed it quickly. Now all good.

I could not speak highly enough about Nabeel. He was professional respectful and good-humoured. Aspect are a thorough and professional outfit. The leak investigation was thorough and informative. Clear explanation was given at all stages. Work carried out to the highest standards. Carpentry work to replace rotten joists and floor boards was 110 %.

I was amazed with the amount of knowledge and experience the engineer had. Micky, the engineer, who came to fix my leak was very professional and hardworking. He did not waste 1 second and fixed that leak, that other company couldn't found, within a short period of time. I would recommend Aspect to anyone who is struggling with a leak.

If you suspect a leak in your central heating or plumbing system, don’t ignore it. Fixing the problem is usually covered by an insurance policy.
Water escaping inside a property could be causing bigger problems than any visible signs might suggest. Water damage can eventually compromise the structural integrity of a property if left unresolved. Failing to act quickly might mean your insurance company rejects your claim.
