Water mains leaks can show as an internal or external water leak. A rising water bill is a sign of a leaking water supply line. The most typical location of a water supply leak is outside where the water supply pipe is influenced by ground movement which causes pipes to split or fittings to become defective. Our experts conduct a water meter leak test to confirm if the leak is internal or external, then carry out a leak detection investigation to pinpoint the leak.
Underground water leaks come 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 pinpoint underground water leaks by initially evaluating which pipes are beneath the ground. Our non-destructive leak detection approach is used to find the source of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Underfloor heating leaks often develop on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on underfloor heating circuits include damaged pipework, substandard installation, damage to the pipes, age or a deficient maintenance routine. Our engineers find leaks on underfloor 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 settling of building materials, subsidence, defective construction or deferred maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team pinpoint leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a suite of leak detection techniques including tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks vary from gradual water intrusion causing damp to a substantial flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water entry occurs where there are damaged tiles, damaged flashing, degraded mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, faulty construction, poor maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older. Locate the source of your roof leak by choosing our extremely skilled roof leak investigation professionals.
Shower and bathroom leaks originate from hidden pipework behind walls, beneath the bathtub, shower tray or sink.

Eliminate further water damage to your property!
Drainage leaks occur on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include broken pipes, worn 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 assessments inside the drain pipe.
