Acoustic Leak Detection in Dubai & the UAE

Water escaping from a pressurised pipe makes a distinctive sound. Our electro-acoustic ground microphones and listening sticks amplify that sound through concrete, tiles, paving and soil, so we can pinpoint leaks in slabs, walls and buried mains with minimal disruption. Fixed prices from AED 1,150 including VAT.

When we use acoustic detection

  • Leaks in hot or cold water pipes under floor slabs
  • Concealed pipes in walls behind tiles and cabinets
  • Buried villa water mains and irrigation supply lines
  • Commercial pipework in basements and service areas

How it works

  • We confirm the leak with pressure testing and isolate the section
  • The pipe route is traced so we listen in the right places
  • Ground microphones compare sound levels along the pipe
  • The loudest point is confirmed and marked for repair
  • Tracer gas is used if the leak is too quiet to hear

Price

Apartments AED 1,150 and villas AED 1,650 for the first hour on site, then AED 495 per extra hour. Underground mains from AED 2,450. All prices include 5% VAT and a written report. See all prices.

Acoustic leak detection FAQs

Does acoustic detection work on plastic pipes?

Plastic pipes carry sound less well than copper, so leaks can be quieter. We often combine acoustic testing with tracer gas on PPR, PEX and PE pipework.

Does it need to be quiet?

Background noise from traffic, pumps and AC units can interfere. We may ask for appliances to be switched off briefly, or test at a quieter time.

How accurate is it?

On a pressurised pipe with a clear route, we can usually narrow the leak down to a small area so only a minimal opening is needed.
