Water mains leaks can show as an internal or external water leak. A high water bill is a indicator of a leaking water supply line. The single most frequent location of a water supply leak is outside where the water supply line is damaged by ground movement which causes pipes to crack or fittings to become defective. Our professionals complete a water meter leak test to determine whether the leak is internal or external, then undertake a leak detection investigation to pinpoint the leak.
Underground water leaks develop from water supply lines, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, worn pipes, tree root damage or inadequate installations. We find underground water leaks by first identifying which pipes are below the ground. Our non invasive leak detection approach is used to pinpoint the origin of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under floor heating leaks commonly appear on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under-floor heating circuits include worn pipework, improper installation, damage to the pipes, age or a poor maintenance routine. Our professionals identify leaks on underfloor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks develop in the roof, walls or foundations of a building due to movement of building materials, subsidence, inadequate construction or insufficient maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team identify leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a range of leak detection systems including Tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks span from minor water intrusion causing damp to a major flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water intrusion occurs where there are broken tiles, damaged flashing, deteriorating mortar or damage around a chimney.
