Duchy Leak Detectives Services

Specialist Leak Detection, Pipework & Repairs

Duchy Leak Detectives provides a comprehensive range of leak detection, water main and underground pipework services for agricultural, commercial and domestic customers throughout Cornwall.

Using specialist equipment and proven techniques, we can locate hidden leaks with minimal disruption before carrying out the repairs and reinstatement work where required.

Leak Detection

A hidden water leak can cause significant damage and wasted water if left unresolved. Our specialist leak detection services are designed to accurately identify the source of a leak without unnecessary excavation.

Tracer Gas Detection

Tracer gas testing is a safe and effective method of finding hidden water leaks.

A specialist gas mixture is introduced into the pipework, allowing our equipment to detect where the gas escapes. This can help us identify leaks that may otherwise be difficult to locate.

Acoustic Leak Detection

Our acoustic listening equipment allows us to listen for the sounds created by escaping water within pipework. By analysing these sounds, we can pinpoint the likely location of a leak while minimising the need for disruptive digging.

Pipe Location

We can locate underground and indoor pipework without causing unnecessary damage to your property. Accurately locating pipes can be particularly useful before excavation, repair or replacement works, helping to make the job safer and more efficient.

Water Main Repairs & Replacement

Once a leak or damaged section has been located, Duchy Leak Detectives can carry out the necessary repair work. Our services include:

Where appropriate, we can advise on the most suitable solution for your property, land or requirements.

What to expect from Duchy Leak Detectives

Agricultural Water Main Services

We understand that water main problems on agricultural land can be disruptive, affecting livestock, crops, buildings and day-to-day operations.

Our team can help locate leaks and damaged underground pipework before carrying out the required repairs or replacement work.

With leak detection, excavation, pipework repairs and reinstatement available from one team, we can help reduce the disruption and inconvenience associated with underground water main problems.

Moling & Trenching

We provide moling and trenching services for underground pipework installations and repairs.

Where ground conditions and the project allow, moling can provide a less disruptive alternative to traditional excavation, helping to reduce the impact on gardens, driveways, land and other surfaces.

Section 50 Streetworks

Duchy Leak Detectives can carry out Section 50 streetworks repairs, helping to manage necessary repair works involving the highway. Our experience covers the repair process through to the appropriate reinstatement works, helping to keep the project with one contractor rather than requiring you to organise multiple trades.

Permanent Reinstatement

A pipe burst or water main repair can leave more than just a damaged pipe behind.

Duchy Leak Detectives can carry out permanent remedial and reinstatement works following pipe bursts and repairs, including works affecting driveways, highways and properties.

Our aim is to take the burden away from the customer by providing a complete service from locating the problem through to completing the necessary reinstatement.

Detailed Reporting

Following our leak detection work, we can provide detailed written reports supported by photographic and video evidence.

This provides you with a clear record of our findings and can be particularly useful for commercial and agricultural customers.

One Team From Start to Finish

One of the key benefits of using Duchy Leak Detectives is that we can provide more than just leak detection.

We can locate the leak, carry out the repair and complete the remedial works.

This means you don’t have to find and coordinate separate contractors for each stage of the job.
