SEEK A LEAK

Specialist Non-invasive Infrared Thermography Inspections

BUILDING INSPECTIONS

We provide advanced thermal imaging inspections for homes and buildings throughout the Wellington Region (and around NZ with prior arrangement). Seek a Leak inspections include a top-to-bottom non-invasive thermal imaging assessment. Additional leak and moisture detection diagnosis is carried out using specialist equipment when necessary, to discover and confirm any hidden leaks, moisture, mold growth, or heat loss. Our findings are presented in a comprehensive PDF report combining our expert leaky building knowledge and infrared photographic evidence from our advanced thermal imaging equipment.

ELECTRICAL INSPECTIONS

We provide specialist non-invasive infrared thermography inspections of all electrical equipment to detect potential trouble and electrical abnormalities throughout the Wellington Region. Seek a Leak electrical inspections assist building owners and facility managers in detecting hot spots and loose connections. A thermal imaging inspection will test the switchboard’s temperature against the temperature of surrounding components to detect variances that usually indicate an electrical abnormality. This allows you to fix issues before they become a problem protecting your assets, the building, and any occupants.

BUILDING INSPECTIONS

We provide advanced thermal imaging building inspections for homes and buildings throughout the Wellington Region (and around NZ with prior arrangement)

LEAK DETECTIONS

Often conventional home inspectors will find only surface evidence of water leaks in basements or ceilings. A thermal inspection will reveal if the issue still persists and where the source of the problem exists, giving you the peace of mind.

MOISTURE DETECTION

If moisture and mould growth has started growing behind panelling or tiles, it may not be visible on the surface and go undetected. A thermal and moisture inspection will reveal these problems.

POST REPAIR AUDITS

Seek a Leak also provides post repair audits to ensure that once the plumber or electrician has been and gone, that the issue has been adequately resolved. 

PRE-PURCHASE INSPECTIONS

Buying a home is one of the biggest, if not the biggest, purchase you’ll ever make. Ensure that your home is leak and fire hazard free with Seek a Leak.

ENERGY EFFICIENCY INSPECTIONS

Our team also provide energy efficiency inspections on your home or business. We assess the output and see whether any maintenance/repairs and needed saving you money.

WHAT IS THERMAL IMAGING?

Infrared thermography is the technique used to produce an image of invisible infrared light emitted by objects due to their thermal condition. All objects emit infrared light, which as humans we sense as heat. However using the latest infrared camera technology (Flir B400) we can produce an instant onscreen image of the heat properties behind walls, floors, and ceilings. This means that the camera can detect and document thermal anomalies anywhere within a building that are often invisible to the naked eye. Thanks to this technology we can quickly seek out and solve many leaky building and moisture problems.

TESTIMONIALS

”We found the Seek A Leek advertisement in our local paper and made contact we were contacted with a quick response and found Matt to be very efficient and professional and carried out the inspection of a 3 storey apartment. 8 units were inspected and the information that was obtained has proven to be invaluable for us to be able to move forward and have repair work carried out. There were certainly some wet spots that were found that we had no idea that they were there. So this service is highly recommended for anyone who thinks they might have or have moisture in their property.”

Seek a Leek will take the guess work out of buying a house with a potential risk of “Leaky Building syndrome”. While other reports will take a guess at whether or not a building has issues; Thermal images carried out by Seek a Leek will take out all the guess work and could save you thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of dollars. The service I received from Seek a Leek was very professional, on time and very knowledgeable about possible moisture issues – A must for any house under contract.

Thrilled and delighted with the work done by Seek a leak. We have been able to narrow down the areas we need to concentrate on and fix first. We would recommend this system as a non invasive investigation tool.

We’re absolutely blown away by the quality of the report, and obviously the relief that it provides by ruling out any question of leaky building. It’s undoubtedly the single best spend of $500 in a very long time! Thanks so much for recommending it, you certainly know your stuff!
