Leak Detection
Water rarely appears inside a building where it gets in. Asset Access traces leaks back to the source on roofs, facades, glazing and gutters, using rope access to get close to high-level defects on commercial buildings across the North East.
01 - Service Detail
We plan the access method, inspection route and repair sequence around the building, the defect and the disruption risk.
Water can travel along membranes, cavities, steel frames and window heads before it shows inside, sometimes several floors below the actual defect. Repairs made without finding the source often fail, so a proper investigation saves money on repeat callouts.
Many leak sources are only visible at close range. Rope access puts a technician right next to the suspected defect on a facade or roof edge, so we can inspect, photograph and, where appropriate, test specific areas without scaffold.
You receive a clear account of what we found, with photos and practical repair recommendations. That information can support conversations with insurers, landlords, contractors or building owners.
02 - Proof
03 - How It Works
We gather internal leak locations, timing, weather patterns and any previous repairs.
We inspect the likely external routes at close range and test suspect areas where suitable.
You get photos, the likely source and a practical recommendation for the repair.
If you want us to, we carry out the repair by rope access and confirm the result.
04 - FAQs
It is a structured investigation to find where water is entering a building and how it reaches the point where it shows inside. It combines information about the leak with close inspection of roofs, facades, glazing and drainage.
Cost depends on the size and height of the building, how many possible entry points there are, whether water testing is needed and how much access planning is involved. We scope the investigation before quoting.
Yes. Failed seals, gaskets and sealant joints around glazing are a common source of water ingress on commercial buildings, and rope access lets us inspect them closely at height.
It depends on your policy and the cause of the leak. Our photo-led findings can help when you speak to your insurer or loss adjuster.
