The Leak Detective

The Leak Detective is a proven high-profit, low-risk business model founded and currently operating successfully in Scotland. The water leak detection sector is growing nationally at a pace that cannot be met by the existing industry. Currently this specialist niche sector offers no industry training or apprenticeships. We are looking for ambitious entrepreneurial partners to offer the training, skills, and equipment to take advantage of this very profitable opportunity.

Someone has to find this leakage - it might as well be you.

Who Are We Looking For?

You should be business minded, ambitious and willing to learn new skills. Leak detection requires problem solving and a methodical logical mind set. You should be able to clearly communicate to customers and write clear, concise reports (we will help you with this). You should be willing to invest in your training and commit to ongoing education and equipment. You must have a strong technical mindset – plumbing or related trade qualifications and experience is a distinct advantage. This will also appeal to existing property repair businesses as a bolt-on service. Leak detection is a great lead generator providing significant follow-on revenue in property repairs.
