Water supply leaks can present as an internal or external water leak. A elevated water bill is a warning of a leaking water supply line. The single most likely location of a water supply leak is outside where the water mains is impacted by ground movement which causes pipes to break or fittings to become faulty. Our technicians perform a water meter leak test to verify if the leak is internal or external, then complete a leak detection investigation to identify the leak.
Underground water leaks arise from water supply lines, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, rusted pipes, tree root damage or faulty installations. We locate underground water leaks by firstly identifying which pipes are under the ground. Our non-destructive leak detection technique is used to find the cause of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under-floor heating leaks commonly happen on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under floor heating circuits include damaged pipework, improper installation, damage to the pipes, age or a poor maintenance routine. Our engineers find leaks on underfloor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks arise in the roof, walls or foundations of a building due to movement of building materials, subsidence, faulty construction or lacking maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team pinpoint leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a suite 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 heavy flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water ingress occurs where there are broken tiles, damaged flashing, degraded mortar or damage around a chimney.
