We use a combination of electronic detection and CCTV cameras with sonde transmitters to trace drain routes accurately. This allows us to map the entire drainage network, including depths and connection points.
A comprehensive drainage map is an asset for any property owner. It helps you plan work, avoid problems, and provides valuable documentation for future reference or property sales.
Our sonde transmitters emit signals that can be detected above ground, allowing us to trace the exact path of drains even when they're buried deep underground. Combined with CCTV, we can see and locate everything.
When you need to find hidden drains or understand your drainage system, Leakbusters Lanzarote has the expertise and equipment:
Drain detection challenges specific to Lanzarote properties:
Drain detection is essential when planning building work to avoid hitting drains, when you have problems but don't know where your drains run, when buying property and wanting to understand the drainage, or when there are disputes about shared drainage responsibilities.
We use a combination of methods. A transmitter sonde is passed through the pipe and its signal is detected from above ground. For non-accessible pipes, dye testing and water flow observation can trace routes. Electronic locators can also detect metal pipes directly.
Yes. Metal pipes can be traced directly with electromagnetic locators. Plastic pipes are traced using a sonde - a transmitter pushed through the pipe that broadcasts a signal we can follow from the surface. Both methods are non-invasive.
Depending on the survey level, you receive: surface marking of drain routes on your property, a sketch plan or formal CAD drawing of the drainage layout, notes on pipe material and condition where inspected, and recommendations for any issues found.
Using modern sonde and locating equipment, we can typically locate buried drains to within 100-200mm horizontally and estimate depth to within 10-20% accuracy. This is sufficient for planning building works and targeted excavation.
