Visible Deterioration: Damp patches and mould on walls indicate a hidden water leak, whereas dying plants near outdoor pipes may indicate a gas leak.

Common methods include:
Tracer Gas Detection: A safe, non-toxic gas is introduced into the pipe, which then escapes through the leak, making the location of leaks easier to identify.
Acoustic Listening: Uses highly sensitive listening equipment to detect the sound of water escaping from the pipe, especially for underground or hidden pipework.
Thermal Imaging: Specialised cameras are used to detect subtle temperature variations caused by water leaks, particularly behind walls, floors, and ceilings.
Standard methods include:
Odour Detection: Mercaptan is added to the gas supply network to give it a strong sulphur-like odour, enabling leak detection.
Soapy Water Test: A soap solution is applied to the suspected areas to visually confirm the presence of a leak; bubbles will form at the leak site.
Infrared Camera Scanning: Specialised IR cameras help detect leaks by sensing heat patterns and gas emissions that are invisible to the naked eye.
