What is leak detection and how does it work
Leak detection is the non-destructive tracing of water loss and moisture ingress using geometry, physics, and instrumentation. We measure pressure loss in water pipes, analyze temperature differences using infrared thermography, listen for flow noise with ultrasound, and visualize air and water flows. In doing so, we pay attention to capillary action, condensation, infiltration, and convection. We use, among other things, FLIR infrared cameras, Trotec and Protimeter moisture meters, a Ridgid endoscope camera, smoke and dye tests, acoustic correlation, and tracer gas with a safe hydrogen-nitrogen mixture. Our analysis aligns with NEN guidelines for building installations such as NEN 3215 and with structural principles from the Building Decree 2012.
- Thermography: with an IR camera, we visualize temperature patterns that indicate wet insulation, leaking underfloor heating, or thermal bridges
- Trace gas: we flush a pipe with a light hydrogen-nitrogen mixture and detect molecules escaping through the smallest cracks
- Ultrasonics and acoustics: we locate microcracks by the characteristic sound of flowing water in pipes and couplings
- Endoscopy: with a compact camera, we inspect the cavity, soffit, crawl space, and ceiling plenum without breaking open.
- Moisture and salt measurement: conductivity measurements show traces of moisture and chlorides from sea air that accelerate corrosion and leaks
Common leaks in Hippolytushoef and the surrounding area
Hippolytushoef is situated on the Wadden Sea, where driving rain and storms increase the load on roofs and facades. In our practice, we observe patterns that we address in a targeted manner with Leak Detection Hippolytushoef.
- Roof leak during storm: cracks in bitumen, loose seams, or weak details around the dormer and chimney lead to damp insulation and ceiling stains; read how we targeted roof leak detection
- Facade leakage and pointing: rain penetration through porous masonry, cracks, or damaged sealant around window frames causes damp patches and mold formation
- Water pipe leak: unexplained consumption, pressure loss, or hot spots in the floor often indicate corrosion or a defective coupling, let us Quickly locate a water pipe leak
- Underfloor heating and drainage: leakage due to mechanical damage or a weak drain connection can lead to musty odors and saturated screeds
Step-by-step our leak detection process
We follow a strict and transparent protocol so that you know where you stand and your insurer can handle it.
- Intake and triage: we discuss symptoms, year of manufacture, materials, and previous repairs, and check the risk of subsequent damage
- On-site baseline measurement: visual inspection, moisture measurements, and pressure measurements determine the basis and narrow down the search zone
- Measurement plan and detection: we select methods such as thermography, tracer gas, smoke test, or endoscopy based on construction and installations
- Analysis and causeWe link measurement results to building physics and installation guidelines so that the actual cause becomes clear.
- Report and advice: within three days you will receive an expert report with photos, measurements, conclusion, and repair advice in accordance with the requirements of insurers such as Interpolis and Centraal Beheer

Practical examples and fast processing
After heavy rain from the Wadden Sea, we regularly find a leaking flat roof with wet insulation around the dormer, visible in thermography as cold spots. In a 1970s home, we trace a hot water pipe leak under the screed using tracer gas and confirm this with a pressure test. In the case of unexplained damp patches in the interior wall, salt measurements and endoscopy show that the facade jointing is permeable. These cases demonstrate how Leak Detection Hippolytushoef combines smart measurements with clear advice so that you only repair what is necessary.
