Electronic Leak Detection

Roofing Consultants Ltd use electronic leak detection testing to identify defects in waterproofing membranes. This technique of roof leak detection works on the principal that the structural roof deck is an electrical conductor and the waterproofing membrane is an electrical insulator. By moving the Electronic Leak Detection equipment over the test area our surveyor can pinpoint areas of entrapped water/moisture, pinholes in the material and damaged/defective welded laps.

All defective areas found  during our roof survey are marked on the roof area and recorded  on our roof plan  which will be supplied with our technical roof survey report. Whilst carrying out this survey a full lap test can be completed to find any exposed areas that may allow potential water ingress.

Survey Benefits Include:

• Identify trapped moisture / failed insulation
• Fix/repair leaks with confidence
• Save thousands of pounds on costly roof overlays
