Leak detection & pipe relining — common questions, clear answers.

We combine acoustic listening devices, ground microphones, tracer-gas equipment and thermal imaging to pinpoint the source of a leak without breaking the surface. The right tool is matched to the type of pipe, the surface above it and the size of the leak.

Most domestic leak investigations take between 60 and 120 minutes on site. Larger commercial or municipal jobs may run over a day depending on the layout, accessibility and number of pipes to test.

Yes. Slab leaks under tiles, screeds or paving are one of the most common jobs we handle. We use acoustic and thermal techniques so the slab does not need to be broken open until the exact spot is confirmed.

CIPP stands for Cured-In-Place Pipe. A flexible, resin-impregnated liner is drawn into the existing pipe and then cured to form a hard, seamless new pipe inside the old one. It restores structural strength without excavation.

In most cases, yes. The savings come from not having to break and reinstate driveways, slabs, paving, landscaping or roads. The disruption and downtime are also far lower.

A correctly installed CIPP liner typically has a service life of 50 years or more, comparable to a brand-new pipe.

Yes. We support municipal water and sewer departments, civil contractors, mines and industrial sites with leak detection, CCTV surveys, flow logging and large-diameter pipeline rehabilitation.

We can reline gravity drains and sewers from small lateral diameters up to 1500 mm, and pressurised water pipelines from 50 mm to 1400 mm in continuous runs of up to 15 km.

Every survey is documented. Inspections come with HD video footage, defect coding and a clear written report with recommended next steps.

Yes. Active flooding, suspected slab leaks and burst mains are prioritised. Mark your enquiry as urgent and we will get back to you as quickly as possible.

We work across all of South Africa. Our strongest coverage is in Gauteng (Johannesburg, Pretoria, Sandton, Midrand, Centurion, the East and West Rand and the Vaal), with regional teams supporting the Western Cape, KwaZulu-Natal, Eastern Cape, Free State, Limpopo, Mpumalanga, North West and Northern Cape.

Many home and building insurance policies in South Africa cover the cost of leak detection and the resulting repair. We provide detailed documentation and reports suitable for insurance claims.
