Services, Utilities and Leak Detection Services
We detect what the eye can’t see.
Underground Detection has the experience, expertise and has invested in leading equipment to detect subsurface problems that cannot be seen. Our service involves the detection of underground water, services and utilities as well as unseen problems – problems that you may or may not think that there is a solution for.
So, before you excavate or drill, contact us, there may be an alternative to excavating or breaking, or we may be able to pinpoint the precise location for the best results – saving you time, money and inconvenience.

01
Plumbing and Leak Repairs
Unseen leaks need special attention, and often a regular plumber won’t do. If you have a hidden leak, you need to be sure that you are speaking to the right person with the right equipment and credentials. With extensive experience in leak detection, unseen leaks are quickly detected with minimal disruption, saving you time and money, and ensuring that not only is the leak repaired professionally but that the site is restored to normal, and clean once the job is done.
02
Leak Detection
Is your water meter spinning while no water is being used or are you receiving an abnormally high municipal bill?
If yes, it is a good idea to call us. We have helped homeowners, townhouse complexes, commercial- and industrial properties, to detect unseen problematic leaks underground and in concrete slabs, multi-level housing, flat roofs, bathroom walls and floors.
We specialise in non-destructive testing techniques, as well as the continuous remote logging of water meters.
03
Subsurface Utility Detection & Inspection
We assist property owners, contractors and engineers by locating, tracing or inspecting the subsurface before the drilling of boreholes or civil projects to identify services, like underground plastic, copper, galvanized and concrete pipes, as well as subsurface tanks, graves and other buried objects that may be encountered.
Tracing is done from the surface by using ground penetrating radar, while the further internal inspection is done using CCTV. CCTV is also able to inspect water & sewer pipes for damage, root infestation, collapsed or broken pipes that cause continual blockage.
04
Groundwater Detection
Advanced portable underground surveying equipment is used to analyse the ground to site boreholes and locate fault zones where water may be found.
We conduct surveys over the surface and produce virtual 3D images that trace the water-bearing structures of the subsurface, showing engineers and contractors the best place to drill for water.
05
Remote Watermeter Logging
We install and monitor Remote Water Logging Devices that continuously monitor water usage in townhouse complexes, flats & apartments, factories and shopping centres; helping you take control of your water consumption and prevent against excessive water loss.
