Water supply leaks can show as an internal or external water leak. A unusually high water bill is a signal of a leaking water mains. The single most frequent location of a water main leak is outside where the water supply pipe is damaged by ground movement which causes pipes to crack or fittings to become worn. Our technicians carry out a water meter leak test to establish whether the leak is internal or external, then perform a leak detection investigation to discover the leak.
Underground water leaks stem from water supply lines, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, degraded pipes, tree root damage or poor installations. We find underground water leaks by first assessing which pipes are under 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 typically appear on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on underfloor heating circuits include damaged pipework, improper installation, damage to the pipes, age or a poor maintenance routine. Our specialists identify 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 settlement of building materials, subsidence, poor construction or overdue maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team pinpoint leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a range 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 substantial flow of water in heavy rainfall.
