Location And Detection Services
LOCATE . MAP . VERIFY
AVOID COSTLY UTILITY STRIKES, PREVENT UNNECESSARY EXCAVATION OR FIND HIDDEN LEAKS?
At Location and Detection Services, we don’t just carry out surveys.
We help clients avoid risk, reduce disruption, and make the right decisions before committing to work.
Whether you know exactly what you need — or you’re unsure where the problem lies — we’ll guide you to the right solution.
THE PROBLEM?
Most costly problems happen because something wasn’t identified early enough
We’re regularly contacted after:
-Services are struck during excavation.
-Leaks remain unresolved despite repeated repairs.
-Drainage issues persist with no clear cause
-Excavation carried out; sewer not identified at the expected location.
-Work is delayed due to unknown underground assets.
-Home extension started but come across unknown drains
Our role is to identify the issue before it becomes expensive, disruptive, or legally complex.
WHAT WE ACTUALLY DO? (outcomes first, services second)
How we help
We provide clear, reliable investigations to support informed decisions, including:
Utility Surveys
Identifying underground services to prevent strikes, delays, and safety incidents.
Drainage Surveys & Investigations
Locating defects, blockages, and structural issues without unnecessary excavation.
Leak Detection
Pinpointing hidden water leaks accurately to minimise damage and repair costs.
Each service is delivered with a problem-solving mindset, not a tick-box approach.
DETAILED REPORT SUPPLIED WITH EVERY SURVEY
WHY ARE WE DIFFERENT?
Not sure what investigation you actually need?
Many clients contact us before they know which survey is required.
We offer a consultative approach where we:
- Assess symptoms and site conditions
- Advise on the most appropriate investigation
- Prevent unnecessary or incorrect surveys
- Save time, cost, and disruption.
This makes us especially valuable for:
- Property owners
- Commercial clients
- Developers and consultants
- Clients dealing with ongoing or unresolved issues
You don’t need to have the answers — that’s our job.
