Swimming pool leaks originate from the pool structure, liner or be located anywhere on the filtration system. The most typical cause of a swimming pool leak is cracked pipes on the filtration system caused by ground movement, additional causes include loose filtration system fittings or damage to the pool structure.

Water mains leaks can manifest as an internal or external water leak. A increased water bill is a symptom of a leaking water mains. 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 crack or fittings to become faulty. Our technicians complete a water meter leak test to verify if the leak is internal or external, then undertake a leak detection investigation to find the leak.
Underground water leaks arise from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, rusted pipes, tree root damage or poor installations. We identify underground water leaks by firstly identifying which pipes are beneath the ground. Our non-invasive leak detection technique is used to find 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 degraded pipework, improper installation, damage to the pipes, age or a lacking maintenance routine. Our specialists locate leaks on under-floor 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 movement of building materials, subsidence, substandard construction or lacking maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team locate leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a array of leak detection technologies including tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks extend from slight water intrusion causing damp to a significant flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water penetration happens where there are loose tiles, damaged flashing, deteriorating mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, incorrect construction, neglected maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older. Identify the source of your roof leak by choosing our highly professional roof leak investigation professionals.
Shower and bathroom leaks arise from hidden pipework behind walls, beneath the bathtub, shower tray or sink.

Prevent further water damage to your property!
Drainage leaks happen on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include broken pipes, damaged 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 assessments inside the pipe. Our drainage specialist provide a thorough inspection to detect the cause of the leak and are often able to carry out a repair on the same day.
