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 — 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.

LeakGuard — 24/7 Cloud Monitoring

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.

LeakGuard — Instant Alerts

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.

How It Really Works

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.
