St Boswells is one of our easiest-access patches — straight up the A68, with both the village itself and Newtown St Boswells immediately adjacent. The mix of stone-built older houses around The Green, modern estates and a strong rural fringe means a healthy spread of gas, LPG and bathroom work.
Non-destructive water leak detection across St Boswells — 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 St Boswells 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 TD6 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: 15 minutes via the A68.
Every St Boswells 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.

Most TD6 St Boswells emergencies are attended the same day — it's a 15-minute run from our Kelso base via the A68.
Yes — Newtown St Boswells is part of the same round and gets the same response times as the village.
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.
