Water supply leaks can manifest as an internal or external water leak. A increased water bill is a warning of a leaking water mains. The most frequent location of a water main leak is outside where the water supply line is influenced by ground movement which causes pipes to fracture or fittings to become worn. Our specialists carry out a water meter leak test to confirm if the leak is internal or external, then conduct a leak detection investigation to find the leak.
Underground water leaks stem from water supply lines, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, rusted pipes, tree root damage or defective installations. We find underground water leaks by first assessing which pipes are under the ground. Our non-destructive leak detection technique is used to trace the origin of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Underfloor heating leaks regularly develop on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on underfloor heating circuits include degraded pipework, faulty installation, damage to the pipes, age or a deficient maintenance routine. Our professionals locate leaks on under-floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks occur in the roof, wall or foundations of a building due to movement of building materials, subsidence, poor construction or lacking maintenance.
