Our goal is clear and practical investigation that directly assists you with damage mitigation and insurance claims processing. We work according to current standards and guidelines, such as NEN 1006 for drinking water installations, and we are VCA VOL and NEN 3140 certified. Thanks to our collaboration with insurers and the Rijnland Water Board, as well as coordination with the Municipality of Zoetermeer, the process runs smoothly. Dunea is the drinking water supplier in the region; we take this context into account during pressure and flow analyses. With 15 years of experience, 5 out of 5 stars from Google reviews, 24/7 service, on-site within 1 hour, no solution, no payment, and a 99 percent success rate, you stand strong and risk-free.
How leak detection in Zoetermeer works without hacking
We detect leaks using professional detection equipment and non-destructive methods. Examples include thermography with FLIR infrared cameras, electro-acoustic microphones, ultrasonic measurements, tracer gas with hydrogen nitrogen forming gas, endoscopy behind ceilings and in shafts, dye tests with fluorescent markers, and targeted water and spray tests on roofs and facades. This approach combines physical principles such as thermal conduction, pressure drop, and flow noise with data interpretation to provide an accurate pinpoint location.

Step-by-step leak investigation process
- Intake and triageWe ask targeted questions, check for signs such as water loss, pressure drop, and signs of moisture, and schedule emergency action if necessary.
- Site visit: visual inspection, moisture measurement with capacitive and resistance sensors, and baseline measurement of piping systems.
- Measurement combinations: thermography, acoustics, tracer gas or dye, supplemented with endoscopy or smoke test if structural confirmation is required.
- Analysis and reportWe translate measurement data into a clear cause, location, and consequential damage, and deliver an expert report within 3 days, including a photolog and repair advice.
- Aftercare and insuranceWe assist with coverage questions, offer recovery scenarios, and engage partners if you wish.

Types of leaks we detect in Zoetermeer
- Water pipe leakage: pressure loss, damp spots or a high water bill, we combine pressure testing and acoustics for an exact location and provide advice in accordance with NEN 1006; view our water pipe leak repair for details.
- Underfloor heating leakage: warm and cold zones in the screed, we use thermography and tracer gas to pinpoint pipe breaks without breaking open the floor.
- Roof leakage: we test bitumen and EPDM roofs in the city center and industrial areas with smoke and water tests and thermal differentiation of wet insulation, see our solution for detecting roof leaks.
- Facade and cavityWe analyze rain penetration, cracking, and defective damp-proof courses using spray testing, endoscopy, and moisture gradients in the inner wall.
- Bathroom and ceilingWe trace leaking drains, porous joints, and leaks under shower floors using dye tests and smoke or pressure tests on drain segments.
Measurement methods and techniques with a scientific basis
- ThermographyThermal imaging shows temperature gradients in wet zones and leaking pipes; we work with FLIR cameras and calibration according to fixed protocols for reliable interpretation.
- ElectroacousticsMicrophones and correlators pick up leakage noise and triangulate the source, ideal for water pipes in screed or walls where there is no direct view.
- Trace gas: forming gas with hydrogen and nitrogen migrates through the smallest openings and is detected above ground, accurately in pipes under tiled floors.
- Dye and UV: fluorescent marker follows the flow of water in bathrooms and drains, suitable for complex patterns of seepage to a ceiling.
- Spray test and smoke test: facade and roof are loaded sectorally to locate infiltration, smoke reveals air and water paths in complex connections and dormers.

Practical examples in Zoetermeer
In Oosterheem, we located a roof penetration leak above a retail unit using a smoke test and thermal analysis, resulting in only a small section of bitumen being replaced and the tenant being dry again the same day. In Rokkeveen, we found a clogged shower drain with a micro-leak that was affecting the living room ceiling via a pipe penetration; dye and endoscopy confirmed the route, and the repair was limited to sealant and replacement of the connection. In Meerzicht, acoustics revealed a leaking cold water pipe in the screed; we marked the exact spot using tracer gas, after which targeted drilling sufficed. The result of Leak Detection Zoetermeer is always the same: a quick diagnosis, minimal demolition, clear advice, and demonstrable cost savings.
Frequently asked questions
How does leak detection in Zoetermeer work without demolition?
We perform leak detection in Zoetermeer without any demolition work, using thermography, acoustic correlation, moisture measurement, endoscopy, and tracer gas based on hydrogen and nitrogen. For roofs, we use a smoke test and UV dye. This allows us to pinpoint the exact leak position down to the millimeter. No solution, no payment, and our success rate is 99 percent. For example, in Rokkeveen, we located a leaking coupling in the underfloor heating system using a FLIR infrared camera and a pressure test, without removing any tiles.
We work safely and are certified according to VCA VOL and NEN 3140 standards, utilizing professional measuring equipment. Within three days, you will receive an expert report from Ultrices Leak Detection containing photos, measurement values, and repair recommendations. We also assist with the damage report and, if desired, coordinate with your insurer, such as Achmea ASR or Nationale Nederlanden, to ensure the process runs smoothly.

Until we arrive, close the main valve in case of water loss and reduce the pressure of your central heating system in case of a rapid pressure drop. Switch off wet circuits in the meter cupboard for safety in accordance with NEN 3140, take photos of any damage, and note the water meter reading. We will start on-site with thermography, tracer gas, or acoustics and immediately provide you with a clear plan of action.
Which method works best for roof, central heating, or underfloor heating in Zoetermeer?
The best method depends on the system. We investigate roof leaks using a smoke test, a UV dye test, and endoscopy for penetrations, gutters, and rainwater drains. For central heating and district heating, we use a pressure test, acoustic correlation, and tracer gas. We visualize underfloor heating with infrared thermography and pressure loss analysis. We check sewers with a sewer camera and smoke.
We combine techniques for maximum certainty and pinpoint the exact location on the floor or wall. On-site, you receive a clear explanation and practical repair advice for your plumber, roofer, or contractor. Our professional equipment, such as FLIR and ultrasonic microphones, eliminates the need for breaking during diagnosis, allowing for quick and targeted repairs.
