Water supply leaks can present as an internal or external water leak. A elevated water bill is a indicator of a leaking water supply line. The single most probable location of a water mains leak is outside where the water supply line is damaged by ground movement which causes pipes to break or fittings to become compromised. Our technicians conduct a water meter leak test to establish whether the leak is internal or external, then carry out a leak detection investigation to detect the leak.
Underground water leaks come from water mains, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, worn pipes, tree root damage or inadequate installations. We locate underground water leaks by initially identifying which pipes are below the ground. Our non destructive leak detection technique is used to find the cause of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Underfloor heating leaks typically arise on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under floor heating circuits include damaged pipework, poor installation, damage to the pipes, age or a lacking maintenance routine. Our professionals find leaks on under floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks appear in the roof, walls or foundations of a building due to settlement of building materials, subsidence, poor construction or deferred maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team find leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a variety of leak detection technologies including tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks span from slow water intrusion causing damp to a significant flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water intrusion happens where there are broken tiles, damaged flashing, deteriorating mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, incorrect construction, neglected maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older.

Drainage Leaks appear on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include damaged pipes, deteriorated seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement. A drain system is not under pressure so leak detection technologies are limited to CCTV investigations inside the drain pipe. Our drainage engineers offers a comprehensive inspection to detect the cause of the leak and are generally able to undertake a repair on the same day.
