Water main leaks can present as an internal or external water leak. A unusually high water bill is a symptom of a leaking water supply line. The most typical location of a water main leak is outside where the water supply pipe is affected by ground movement which causes pipes to split or fittings to become defective. Our specialists do a water meter leak test to identify if the leak is internal or external, then carry out a leak detection investigation to find the leak.
Underground water leaks stem from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, deteriorated pipes, tree root damage or poor installations. We find underground water leaks by firstly identifying which pipes are below the ground. Our non destructive leak detection method is used to pinpoint the source of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under-floor heating leaks frequently arise 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 insufficient maintenance routine.
