Residential and commercial applications

For Miami–Fort Lauderdale property owners
Underground pipes are exposed to the high water tables and the shifting sand/clay soils in the area. Additional strain can be created due to seasonal flooding and saturation of the exterior plumbing system buried deeply underneath your lawn or driveway. We use sophisticated tracking tools to follow the route of the underground pipes and detect leaks in the most difficult conditions.

Acoustic listening
Amplified ground microphones pick up the sound of pressurized water leaking through concrete and soil.
Moisture meters and mapping
