Commercial properties face unique challenges when it comes to water leaks. The scale of commercial buildings, complex plumbing systems, and the potential for business disruption make early leak detection crucial.

From office blocks in Edinburgh's business district to retail premises in Glasgow's city centre, we've helped hundreds of Scottish businesses protect their properties and maintain continuity. Recognising the warning signs early can save your business thousands in repair costs and prevent lengthy operational disruptions.
Unexplained High Water Bills
Commercial water bills suddenly increasing without corresponding usage changes often indicate hidden leaks in your business premises that need immediate professional detection.
Water Damage to Stock or Equipment
Moisture damage to inventory, equipment, or office furniture suggests active leaks that could be affecting multiple floors or areas of your commercial property.
Electrical System Issues
Water infiltration near electrical systems poses serious safety risks. Flickering lights, tripping circuits, or damp near electrical panels require immediate leak investigation.
Ceiling Stains or Sagging
Water marks on suspended ceilings, particularly in multi-storey buildings, indicate leaks from floors above that could compromise structural integrity if left unchecked.
Staff Health Complaints
Employee reports of musty smells, respiratory issues, or allergies could indicate hidden water leaks causing mould growth within your commercial premises.
Low Water Pressure Issues
Inconsistent water pressure across your commercial property, affecting multiple facilities or floors, typically signals significant leaks in main supply lines requiring urgent attention.
Business Protection Priority: Commercial water leaks can halt operations, damage expensive equipment, and lead to insurance complications. Our rapid response commercial leak detection service ensures minimal disruption whilst protecting your business assets and maintaining health and safety standards.

How We Detect Commercial and Business Water Leaks
Commercial properties require specialised leak detection approaches due to their scale, complexity, and operational requirements. Our team uses advanced, non-invasive technology specifically suited to business environments, ensuring we can work around your schedule and minimise any impact on your daily operations.
We deploy enterprise-grade detection equipment designed for large-scale commercial applications. Our methods are proven across office buildings, retail spaces, warehouses, and industrial facilities throughout Scotland.
Commercial Thermal Imaging
Our thermal imaging technology scans large areas quickly, identifying temperature anomalies that indicate water leaks behind walls, above ceilings, or under floors. Perfect for surveying entire floors of office buildings without disrupting work spaces.
Industrial Acoustic Equipment
Professional-grade acoustic listening devices designed for commercial environments detect water escaping from pressurised systems. We can isolate leak sounds even in noisy industrial settings, pinpointing problems in complex pipework networks.
Tracer Gas for Complex Systems
For extensive commercial plumbing networks, our tracer gas detection method locates leaks in inaccessible areas like service ducts, suspended ceilings, and underground supply lines without excavation.
CCTV Pipeline Inspection
Specialised cameras inspect commercial drainage systems, waste pipes, and supply lines. Visual confirmation helps identify not just leak locations but also causes—whether corrosion, damage, or faulty joints—essential for planning permanent repairs.
Pressure Testing Systems
We conduct comprehensive pressure tests on commercial water and heating systems, measuring pressure drop rates to confirm leak presence and severity. Critical for multi-zone systems in large commercial buildings.
Data Logging Equipment
Advanced monitoring equipment tracks water usage patterns over time, identifying intermittent leaks and usage anomalies. Particularly valuable for businesses seeking to reduce water consumption and identify efficiency improvements.
Our commercial leak detection expertise extends across all business sectors—from small retail units to large industrial complexes. We understand that every business has unique requirements, and we tailor our approach accordingly.
Our Commercial Leak Detection Process
We've developed a streamlined process specifically for commercial clients that prioritises efficiency, minimal disruption, and comprehensive documentation. Our approach ensures your business can continue operating whilst we locate and resolve leak issues.
Initial Business Assessment
We begin with a consultation to understand your property layout, operational requirements, and any access restrictions. We'll review your water usage history, discuss symptoms you've noticed, and plan our detection strategy around your business hours to minimise disruption.
Site Survey & Risk Assessment
Our commercial specialists conduct a thorough property inspection, identifying high-risk areas and potential leak sources. We complete health and safety assessments and coordinate with your facilities team to ensure compliance with all workplace regulations.
Deploy Commercial Detection Equipment
Using our suite of professional detection technology, we systematically scan your commercial property. Our quiet, non-invasive methods allow us to work during business hours without disturbing staff or customers.
Locate & Document Leak Sources
We pinpoint all leak locations with precision, marking exact positions and documenting findings with photographic evidence. Multiple leaks are prioritised by severity to help you plan repairs effectively.
Comprehensive Business Report
We provide detailed documentation including leak locations, severity assessments, repair recommendations, and cost implications. Reports are formatted for insurance claims, facilities management, and building compliance requirements.
Repair Coordination & Verification
We can arrange repairs through our network of commercial plumbers or work with your preferred contractors. Post-repair testing verifies successful resolution, and we provide ongoing support for preventative maintenance planning.

Modern commercial buildings with sophisticated systems require equally sophisticated detection methods. Our investment in cutting-edge technology ensures we can handle everything from smart building water management systems to traditional Victorian commercial properties with outdated plumbing.
