Water main leaks can present as an internal or external water leak. A unusually high water bill is a symptom of a leaking water mains. The most common location of a water mains leak is outside where the water supply pipe is damaged by ground movement which causes pipes to split or fittings to become worn. Our engineers carry out a water meter leak test to determine whether the leak is internal or external, then undertake a leak detection investigation to find the leak.
Underground water leaks originate from water mains, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, degraded pipes, tree root damage or defective installations. We discover underground water leaks by initially identifying which pipes are under the ground. Our non destructive leak detection system is used to find the origin of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under floor heating leaks often arise on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under floor heating circuits include worn pipework, poor installation, damage to the pipes, age or a lacking maintenance routine. Our experts find leaks on under floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks appear in the roof, walls or foundations of a building due to settling of building materials, subsidence, substandard construction or deferred maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team discover leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a array of leak detection approaches including Tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks span from minor water intrusion causing damp to a significant flow of water in heavy rainfall.
