What is mains pipe location and tracing?
Mains pipe tracing is the process of identifying the precise position and layout of underground water pipes.
We use specialist equipment such as tracer gas, thermal imaging, acoustic detection tools and ground-penetrating radar to locate pipes quickly and accurately.
This service is particularly important when the pipe layout is unknown or during projects requiring excavation, repair, or leak detection.
By eliminating guesswork, mains tracing reduces risks, speeds up repairs, and ensures compliance with UK standards.

Why is mains pipe tracing important?
Understanding the exact location and layout of your water mains pipes is essential for ensuring the safety, efficiency, and success of your projects.
Accurate tracing reduces the risk of accidental pipe damage during excavation. Damaged pipes can cause significant delays, expensive repairs, and even property damage. By pinpointing the exact location of underground mains, you can avoid these issues and carry out your work confidently.
Quick and precise pipe tracing ensures faster project timelines by allowing repairs, installations, or leak detection to begin without delays. Knowing the pipe locations helps contractors work efficiently and reduces unnecessary excavation, saving both time and money for your property or project.
Local authorities and water providers require accurate pipe location data to approve projects. With professional tracing services, you can meet these requirements and avoid potential fines or legal issues.
