Haddington is the largest of the East Lothian towns we cover and the busiest non-Borders patch on our books. The mix of historic stone properties around the High Street, post-war estates off Aberlady Road and a lively commuter scene out toward Edinburgh creates strong demand for combi swaps, full bathroom refits and increasingly heat-pump enquiries.
Non-destructive water leak detection across Haddington — thermal imaging, acoustic correlation, tracer-gas and moisture-mapping to find a hidden pipe failure without taking up the whole floor. We work directly with insurers (most policies cover the trace-and-access cost), provide a written report with thermal images for your claim, and follow on with the repair so you only deal with one trade rather than three.
Hidden leaks in Haddington usually show first as unexplained pressure-loss, a damp patch on a downstairs ceiling or a water-meter that ticks overnight. We use thermal imaging, acoustic correlation and tracer gas across EH41 properties so the floor only comes up where the leak actually is — saving the wider tile, screed or floorboard run.
Travel from our Kelso base: 1 hour 10 via the A697 / A1.
Every Haddington leak job is documented with thermal images and pressure-test data — useful for insurance claims and for the trades following on behind us.
Step 1
We talk you through the symptoms — pressure-loss, damp patch, meter ticking — to plan the right detection method.
Step 2
Thermal, acoustic or tracer-gas survey. Most leaks pinpointed in 60–90 minutes.
Step 3
Cut-out, fix and pressure-test the affected section. Floor lift kept to the smallest possible area.
Step 4
Written report with thermal images, pressure data and a clear cost breakdown for your insurer.
Around Haddington we also cover:
We're Borders-based but East Lothian is part of our regular weekly round — we run dedicated Haddington and coastal days, so EH41 work is scheduled around them rather than as a one-off.
Yes — we plan flue routing and external pipework carefully on conservation-area elevations and flag any consents needed before quoting.
A standard non-destructive survey is typically £180–£280. Most home insurance policies cover this 'trace and access' cost — we provide the paperwork your insurer needs to reimburse you.
Only directly above the leak — usually a single tile or one floorboard. The whole point of acoustic and thermal detection is avoiding the wider lift that traditional methods cause.
Most accessible pipe leaks are repaired on the same visit. Underfloor heating leaks may need a return visit if a specialist coupling has to be ordered, but the leak is isolated immediately.
