Water main leaks can show as an internal or external water leak. A unusually high water bill is a warning of a leaking water supply line. The single most probable location of a water supply leak is outside where the water supply line is damaged by ground movement which causes pipes to split or fittings to become defective. Our experts carry out a water meter leak test to verify whether the leak is internal or external, then undertake a leak detection investigation to find 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 defective installations. We identify underground water leaks by initially establishing which pipes are underneath the ground. Our non-invasive leak detection method is used to track the origin 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, faulty installation, damage to the pipes, age or a insufficient maintenance routine. Our engineers pinpoint leaks on under floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks occur in the roof, wall or foundations of a building due to movement of building materials, subsidence, faulty construction or insufficient maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team detect leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a range of leak detection methods including tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks span from gradual water intrusion causing damp to a heavy flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water intrusion happens where there are broken tiles, damaged flashing, degraded mortar or damage around a chimney.

Drainage leaks arise on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include split pipes, broken seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement.
