Maybe you’re wondering if you can get reimbursed for the cost of Trace and Access when dealing with a leak. It’s a valid question to ask whether your home insurance company will cover it under your buildings insurance or home insurance policy.
Trace and Access is a nifty little addition to your house insurance policies. It’s like having a Sherlock Holmes for leaks! It covers the cost of detecting those sneaky leaks without causing any damage. So, no need to worry about tearing down walls or ripping up floors. However, it doesn’t cover the cost of fixing the leak itself. But hey, once the leak is repaired, it’s got your back for any necessary remedial works. Now that’s what I call a leaky problem solver!
Did you know that you might have Trace and Access cover without even realizing it? It’s true! But here’s the catch – you won’t find it unless you specifically ask your home insurance company or take a peek at your policy schedule. Sneaky, huh?
Now, here’s the thing. Each home insurance company has its own set of terms and conditions when it comes to Trace and Access. So, to avoid any surprises, it’s always a good idea to give them a call and find out what they will and won’t cover. And where can you find this magical service? Look no further than your home or buildings insurance.
Stay in the know and give your insurance company a buzz to uncover the mysteries of Trace and Access. You never know what surprises might be waiting for you!

Before our brilliant engineer can work their magic with tracer gases, they'll want to make sure the suspected pipework is free of water. Once that's taken care of, it's time to introduce those trusty tracer gases. Don't worry, these gases are as safe as can be, and they won't harm a soul. Made up of 95% Nitrogen and 5% Hydrogen, they're the ultimate detective duo. Once released into the pipework, these sneaky gases will find their way to the leak, making their grand entrance to the surface through just about any material. And how do we find them, you ask? Well, that's where our sniffing devices come into play. They'll track down those mischievous gases in no time, leading us straight to the source of the leak. It's like a game of hide-and-seek, with a twist!
Our amazing Acoustic Listening Devices are designed to capture the enchanting sounds of water or gas flowing through pipes up to 3 meters beneath the surface. These devices are exceptionally skilled at pinpointing the precise location of any leaks, whether hidden beneath internal floors or external surfaces. As a result, they are widely employed in both internal and external leak detection endeavors.
Market-leading Thermal Imaging devices are like magical tools that can effortlessly trace the path of hot and cold pipework hidden under your internal floors and behind walls. It's like having a superhero engineer who can see through walls and map out all the hidden pipework in your home. These devices are usually used at the beginning of the Trace & Access process, making it a breeze for the engineer to locate and visualize all the secret pipes in your humble abode. So, say goodbye to the days of guessing and hello to the power of Thermal Imaging!
Snake cameras are an incredibly useful tool for investigating water leaks in hard-to-reach places like walls and under cupboards. They allow us to visually inspect areas where a physical examination is not possible. These cameras are typically used in the later stages of leak detection to confirm the presence of a water leak in a suspected location before any access is made.
