Professional Water Leak Detection
Water leaks can cause extensive damage to your property if left undetected. High water bills, damp patches, and mysterious water stains are often the first signs of a hidden leak. Our expert team uses state-of-the-art equipment to pinpoint leaks without causing unnecessary damage to your property. In Lanzarote, where water is a precious resource, early leak detection is essential for both your wallet and the environment.

How We Perform Water Leak Detection
Our detection process is designed to be thorough yet non-invasive. We start by confirming the leak exists using your water meter, then systematically narrow down the location using multiple detection methods. Most leak detections can be completed within 2-4 hours.
- 1Initial consultation and site assessment
- 2Water meter test to confirm leak presence
- 3Deploy acoustic listening equipment to detect leak sounds
- 4Use thermal imaging cameras to identify temperature anomalies
- 5Apply moisture meters to trace water path
- 6Pinpoint exact leak location with minimal invasive testing
- 7Provide detailed report with repair recommendations
Advanced Technology for Water Leak Detection
We invest in the latest leak detection technology to ensure accurate results. Our thermal imaging cameras can detect temperature differences caused by leaking water, while acoustic equipment picks up the sound of escaping water that the human ear cannot hear.
- Thermal imaging cameras for temperature-based detection
- Acoustic listening devices for pressurised pipe leaks
- Electronic moisture meters and sensors
- Tracer gas detection for complex leak scenarios
- Correlation equipment for underground pipe leaks

Common Water Leak Detection Problems in Lanzarote
Lanzarote's unique climate and construction methods create specific water leak challenges that our team is trained to address:
- Salt air corrosion affecting copper and metal pipes, especially in coastal areas like Puerto del Carmen and Playa Blanca
- Thermal expansion from extreme temperature variations between day and night causing pipe joint stress
- Hard water deposits building up in pipes, leading to reduced flow and eventual leaks
- Older properties with outdated galvanised or lead pipes requiring careful detection
- Underground leaks in volcanic soil that can be difficult to trace without specialist equipment
- Water pressure fluctuations in remote or elevated properties causing pipe fatigue
- Pool and irrigation system leaks common in holiday rental properties

Frequently Asked Questions about Water Leak Detection
Case Studies
Villa Underground Pipe Leak
Puerto del CarmenProblem
A holiday villa owner contacted us after receiving water bills triple their normal amount. They had no visible signs of leakage anywhere on the property, and local plumbers had been unable to locate the source.
Solution
Using acoustic listening equipment and correlator technology, we traced the main supply pipe running from the road to the property. We detected a distinct leak sound approximately 8 metres from the property boundary, beneath a concrete driveway.
Result
The leak was confirmed with minimal excavation (less than 1 square metre). The pipe had corroded due to salt exposure. Repair was completed the same day, and the owner's water bills returned to normal the following month.
Apartment Complex Ceiling Leak
Costa TeguiseProblem
An apartment complex had recurring water stains on the ceiling of a ground floor unit. The upstairs apartment had been checked multiple times with no obvious source found. The community was considering major ceiling removal to investigate.
Solution
Our thermal imaging survey revealed a cold spot in the floor of the upstairs bathroom, not where the stains appeared below. The leak was traced to a slow drip from a shower waste connection, which was running along the floor screed and appearing as a stain metres away.
Result
The repair required only removing a small section of flooring in the bathroom to access and reseal the waste connection. Total repair time was under 2 hours, saving the community thousands in unnecessary ceiling demolition.
Commercial Restaurant Water Loss
ArrecifeProblem
A busy restaurant in Arrecife was losing approximately 5,000 litres per day according to their meter readings. The kitchen, toilets, and all visible pipework had been checked by staff with nothing found.
Solution
We isolated sections of the plumbing system using pressure testing to narrow down the area. Acoustic detection then pinpointed the exact location under the dining room floor slab.
Result
Targeted excavation and pipe repair was completed overnight to minimise business disruption. The restaurant saved over €500 per month in water costs and avoided what could have been catastrophic floor damage.
