Water main leaks can manifest as an internal or external water leak. A high water bill is a symptom of a leaking water supply line. The most typical location of a water supply leak is outside where the water mains is affected by ground movement which causes pipes to crack or fittings to become faulty. Our experts perform a water meter leak test to confirm if the leak is internal or external, then perform 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 poor installations. We discover underground water leaks by initially establishing which pipes are under the ground. Our non invasive leak detection process is used to pinpoint the source of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under-floor heating leaks regularly occur on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under floor heating circuits include worn pipework, faulty installation, damage to the pipes, age or a deficient maintenance routine. Our technicians identify leaks on under-floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks appear in the roof, wall or foundations of a building due to settlement of building materials, subsidence, faulty construction or lacking maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team find leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a range of leak detection techniques including Tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks range from minor water intrusion causing damp to a significant flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water penetration happens where there are loose tiles, damaged flashing, deteriorating mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, faulty construction, inadequate 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 fractured pipes, worn seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement. A Drainage system is not pressurized so leak detection techniques are limited to CCTV assessments inside the pipe.
