Swimming pool leaks arise from the pool structure, liner or be present anywhere on the filtration system.

Water mains leaks can appear as an internal or external water leak. A rising water bill is a warning of a leaking water supply line. The most likely location of a water supply leak is outside where the water main is impacted by ground movement which causes pipes to fracture or fittings to become damaged. Our professionals conduct a water meter leak test to verify whether the leak is internal or external, then complete 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, corroded pipes, tree root damage or faulty installations. We detect underground water leaks by firstly establishing which pipes are beneath the ground. Our non-invasive leak detection method is used to trace the cause of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under-floor heating leaks frequently occur on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on underfloor heating circuits include damaged pipework, poor installation, damage to the pipes, age or a poor maintenance routine. Our technicians pinpoint leaks on under-floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks appear in the roof, wall or foundations of a building due to settlement of building materials, subsidence, defective construction or lacking maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team pinpoint leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a variety of leak detection approaches including tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks span from slow water intrusion causing damp to a major flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water intrusion develops where there are cracked tiles, damaged flashing, crumbling mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, substandard construction, lacking maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older. Discover the source of your roof leak by choosing our exceptionally expert roof leak investigation experts.
Shower and bathroom leaks arise from hidden pipework inside walls, under the bathtub, shower tray or sink.

Avoid further water damage to your property!
Drainage Leaks arise on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include broken pipes, broken seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement. A Drainage system is not pressurised so leak detection methods are limited to CCTV inspections inside the pipe.
