Water main leaks can appear as an internal or external water leak. A rising water bill is a indicator of a leaking water main. The single most common location of a water main leak is outside where the water main is impacted by ground movement which causes pipes to rupture or fittings to become worn. Our specialists carry out a water meter leak test to identify if the leak is internal or external, then carry out a leak detection investigation to locate 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 firstly identifying which pipes are under the ground. Our non-invasive leak detection method is used to find the source of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under floor heating leaks frequently develop on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under floor heating circuits include worn pipework, faulty installation, damage to the pipes, age or a lacking maintenance routine. Our technicians detect leaks on underfloor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks arise in the roof, walls or foundations of a building due to settlement of building materials, subsidence, poor construction or insufficient maintenance.
