Water mains leaks can appear as an internal or external water leak. A high water bill is a symptom of a leaking water main. The most likely location of a water mains leak is outside where the water supply line is affected by ground movement which causes pipes to crack or fittings to become damaged. Our professionals complete a water meter leak test to establish if the leak is internal or external, then conduct a leak detection investigation to locate the leak.
Underground water leaks originate from water supply lines, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, worn pipes, tree root damage or poor installations. We locate underground water leaks by initially evaluating which pipes are beneath the ground. Our non-destructive leak detection technique is used to track the source of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under floor heating leaks typically happen on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on underfloor heating circuits include damaged pipework, improper installation, damage to the pipes, age or a poor maintenance routine. Our experts discover leaks on under floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks happen in the roof, walls or foundations of a building due to movement of building materials, subsidence, faulty construction or neglected maintenance.
