Water main leaks can show as an internal or external water leak. A increased water bill is a sign of a leaking water supply line. The single most typical location of a water main leak is outside where the water supply pipe is damaged by ground movement which causes pipes to split or fittings to become compromised. Our experts conduct a water meter leak test to confirm whether the leak is internal or external, then perform a leak detection investigation to detect the leak.
Underground water leaks arise from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, degraded pipes, tree root damage or defective installations. We locate underground water leaks by first assessing which pipes are beneath the ground. Our non-destructive leak detection approach 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 degraded pipework, substandard installation, damage to the pipes, age or a poor maintenance routine.
