How It Works

    How We Catch Leaks You Can't See, Hear, or Smell

    LeakGuard monitors every litre of water flowing through your property. From the moment it's installed, it's looking for patterns that don't belong — and the moment it finds one, you know about it.

    The 5-Step Process

    From Installation to Full Peace of Mind

    01

    Professional Installation

    Our qualified surveyors install a secondary water meter with a cloud-connected monitoring device at an agreed location on your property. The unit sits in a discreet weatherproof box. No WiFi connection needed. No mains power required. It works completely independently from the moment it goes in.

    LeakGuard step 01 — Professional Installation

    The system goes live from day one — historical baseline builds up automatically

    02

    24/7 Cloud Monitoring

    The device sends water usage data to the cloud continuously. Over the first few days it learns your property's normal patterns — when water typically runs, how much, and at what times. From that point it watches for anything that doesn't fit: overnight consumption, sustained low flow, sudden spikes, or usage when the property should be empty.

    Monthly view — the system tracks every litre, day and night

    03

    Instant Alerts

    The moment unusual consumption is detected — a threshold breach, overnight usage above normal, or abnormal flow patterns — you receive a push notification to your phone. Not when the bill arrives six weeks later. Within hours of it starting.

    Hourly profile — unusual overnight usage shows up clearly against the normal pattern

    04

    Rapid Response

    If you're at the property, you can investigate immediately. If not, we conduct an urgent site visit on your behalf. We arrive with our full kit — VLOC PRO3 acoustic locator, ground penetrating radar, thermal imaging camera, and acoustic correlators — ready to pinpoint the leak in a single visit.

    Day view shows exactly when the anomaly started — vital for rapid diagnosis

    05

    Locate, Report, Repair

    Once we have the leak location — often to within centimetres — we provide a full written report in Spanish and English, suitable for insurance claims. We can then carry out the repair: lifting tiles, fixing the pipe, and restoring the surface. Or we provide the location report to your chosen contractor.

    "Once we have the exact location — often within a few centimetres — we can lift tiles, repair the pipe, and restore everything. You'd never know we were there."

    How It Works — Common Questions

    How does LeakGuard detect a leak if it only monitors the water meter?

    It works on volume. A leak adds litres to your consumption that aren't accounted for by normal use. The system spots patterns that don't match your property's established baseline — particularly overnight, when no one should be using water.

    Can it distinguish between a leaking pipe and a running tap?

    Not definitively — both appear as unusual consumption. That's the point. Any unexpected water usage gets flagged. Whether it's a tap left on or a buried pipe leak, you know about it immediately and can act.

    How quickly does the system learn normal patterns?

    The baseline builds over the first few days. From day one it is monitoring and will flag extreme anomalies. Within a week it has a reliable usage profile and can detect subtle deviations.

    What if I have guests who use more water than normal?

    The system can be adjusted for periods of higher expected usage. You can also simply review any alerts in context — an alert during a week with guests is handled differently to an alert when the property is empty.
