What Is Trace and Access?
Trace and access is the process of locating hidden water leaks using specialist, non-invasive equipment, then providing a clear report for your insurance company. Unlike traditional methods that rely on guesswork and can cause unnecessary damage, trace and access pinpoints the exact source of the problem quickly and efficiently.
Most home insurance policies require professional trace and access reporting before they will cover the cost of repairs. By using advanced technology such as tracer gas, acoustic listening, and thermal imaging, we can provide accurate results that support your claim and help you resolve the issue with minimal disruption.
