Water supply leaks can manifest as an internal or external water leak. A elevated water bill is a signal of a leaking water mains. The single most typical location of a water mains leak is outside where the water mains is influenced by ground movement which causes pipes to split or fittings to become defective. Our professionals conduct a water meter leak test to identify whether the leak is internal or external, then perform a leak detection investigation to pinpoint the leak.
Underground water leaks originate from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, degraded pipes, tree root damage or substandard installations. We discover underground water leaks by initially evaluating which pipes are below the ground. Our non-invasive leak detection process is used to pinpoint the location 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, improper installation, damage to the pipes, age or a inadequate maintenance routine. Our technicians locate leaks on under-floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks happen in the roof, wall or foundations of a building due to movement of building materials, subsidence, substandard construction or insufficient maintenance.
