Local, Fast, Reliable Hidden Leak Detection in Cape Town
Your Insurance May Cover the Detection Cost
Here's something many homeowners don't realize: most insurance policies will reimburse you for professional leak detection services when there's an actual leak found. That means the money you spend on finding the problem can often be claimed back from your insurer. I provide all the documentation you need to submit with your claim, including detailed reports and photos that insurance companies accept.
It's worth checking with your insurance provider - you might be surprised to find that what feels like an unexpected expense today could actually cost you nothing in the long run.

Unexplained Water Bill Increases? Let's Find the Source
Opening your water bill shouldn't give you heart palpitations. When your usage has jumped dramatically without any changes to your daily water habits, it's time to investigate. Hidden leaks can silently waste thousands of litres monthly, turning a manageable utility expense into a budget nightmare. The smart move? Address the issue now before it escalates into costly property damage.
My comprehensive leak detection approach combines multiple proven techniques:
- Tracer Dye Analysis - Non-toxic colorants reveal leak pathways
- Advanced Camera Inspection - Visual assessment of pipe interiors
- Specialized Gas Detection - Identifies leaks through soil and concrete
- Thermal Smoke Testing - Reveals air gaps and hidden breaches
- Precision Acoustic Technology - Listens for leak signatures underground
This sophisticated equipment eliminates the guesswork and prevents unnecessary excavation. Instead of destructive digging based on assumptions, I can pinpoint exact leak locations while preserving your landscaping and hardscaping.
You'll get your report within a day - often while I'm still on-site. This detailed report shows exactly where the leak is, what needs fixing, and gives you everything needed for repair quotes. This documentation proves invaluable for coordinating repairs with contractors and can support insurance claims when applicable.
I had the most wonderful service from your company (Atlantic Leak) when I had a possible leak at my tenanted home in Sea Point. I received a very high water bill on 3 May 2025 (Saturday), contacted you with a message on your website on Sunday, got a call from Werner the next day early morning and he was at the house before 10.30 that morning!
He not only did an outstanding job but sent me a comprehensive report the next day. This meant that my plumber was immediately able to fix the problem and save me accumulating a high bill for the following month. Santam must have also been impressed because I received my insurance payment in full for your bill on 12th May.
Congratulations on running an efficient and effective company and many thanks for so quickly attending to a most stressful situation.
