For years, Canary Detect, widely known as “The Leaky Finders,” has been the trusted name for leak detection in Lanzarote. Our commitment to using advanced technology and our “No Find, No Fee” promise have helped over 1,200 property owners save money and prevent water damage. Now, we have taken another monumental step forward in property protection on the island.
We are incredibly excited to have launched LeakGuard, our 24/7 smart water monitoring system. With our first customers on board and installations active, the flow of data is revealing extraordinary insights. And LeakGuard is working, it’s catching leaks.
The 24/7 live data is so precise that it captures the rhythm of a home—morning showers, nightly garden watering, and even the exact day the swimming pool is topped up. It spots anomalies, big and small. If a pool cleaner leaves the hose running, LeakGuard sees it. This ability to understand the unique water pattern of your individual property enables us to spot genuine changes in usage that likely indicate a leak. This is the new reality of water leak detection in Lanzarote: proactive, intelligent, and always watching.
Real-Life Success: LeakGuard Catches Its First Leak
The effectiveness of LeakGuard is already delivering tangible results. A customer received an alert from their newly installed LeakGuard system. We immediately booked a leak survey, found the issue and fixed it within days.
There were absolutely no visible signs of the leak. Without LeakGuard, this hidden leak would have run uninterrupted for two months until the next water bill arrived. By catching the issue early, we saved a significant amount of water and money, while also preventing damp walls and structural damage. This real-life example perfectly illustrates exactly what LeakGuard is designed to do.
And just this week, we were alerted to another significant leak at one of our other properties with LeakGuard, we visited that day to stop and fix the leak.
They say the proof is in the pudding – well LeakGuard is delivering on spotting leaks.
What is LeakGuard? Your 24/7 Watchman Against Leaks
LeakGuard is a sophisticated, cloud-connected device professionally installed directly at your water meter. It is a simple, self-powered device equipped with its own SIM card, ensuring it is always on and always watching. The Leaky Finders preconfigure all monitoring parameters and alarms, allowing you to relax while we handle any alerts.
The system protects your property through three core mechanisms:
- 24/7 Monitoring: LeakGuard constantly tracks water flow, building a precise profile of normal usage.
- Instant Alerts: The moment an unusual pattern emerges—such as a continuous flow indicative of a leak—the system sends an instant alert to you and our team.
- Rapid Response: No more waiting 6-8 weeks for a surprise water bill. You will know about a potential water leak in your Lanzarote property within 24 hours, allowing for immediate action.
Additionally, the data transmitted by LeakGuard is translated into an easy-to-read, custom-built dashboard. You can log in and view your water usage live. Want to know how much water it takes to fill your pool? You can check it. Want to see if someone has left a tap or a hose on. You can see it. Want to know how much your garden watering system uses at night. It’s all there in the dashboard. For businesses, bars, and restaurants, this level of visibility alone could save thousands of euros by reducing water loss.
Why Every Lanzarote Property Needs LeakGuard
Water is a precious resource in Lanzarote, and the island presents unique challenges. Over 75% of the leaks we discover are hidden underground. Many villas, holiday rentals, and commercial spaces are left vacant for extended periods. Even full-time residents may not spot a small leak for weeks.
Combined with the standard 6-8 week water billing cycle, these factors mean even a minor leak can silently escalate into a major financial and structural problem. Property owners usually only realize there is an issue when a massive bill arrives. By then, the leak has often cost thousands of euros and caused severe damage. A single hidden leak can easily result in a water bill exceeding €1,000.
LeakGuard serves as the definitive solution, providing essential peace of mind, especially for absentee owners. It acts as your virtual presence on the island, safeguarding your investment around the clock.
Fortunately, the protection offered by the most advanced leak detection solution on Lanzarote is highly affordable. It is a small investment that prevents catastrophic costs.
- One-Time Hardware & Professional Installation: €395
- Annual 24/7 Monitoring Subscription: €60 (after the first year)
After the initial installation, the ongoing cost is just €60 a year. That is less than €5 a month for a system that never sleeps. One hidden leak costs far more than that.
