Water supply leaks can present as an internal or external water leak. A increased water bill is a indicator of a leaking water main. The most likely location of a water mains leak is outside where the water supply line is damaged by ground movement which causes pipes to break or fittings to become defective. Our engineers complete a water meter leak test to identify whether the leak is internal or external, then undertake a leak detection investigation to find the leak.
Underground water leaks develop from water supply lines, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, corroded pipes, tree root damage or poor installations. We locate underground water leaks by firstly assessing which pipes are below the ground. Our non-invasive leak detection approach is used to pinpoint the source of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under-floor heating leaks commonly arise on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on underfloor heating circuits include damaged pipework, faulty installation, damage to the pipes, age or a inadequate maintenance routine. Our engineers pinpoint leaks on under floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks develop in the roof, wall or foundations of a building due to settlement of building materials, subsidence, inadequate construction or lacking maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team locate leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a range of leak detection systems including tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks span from gradual water intrusion causing damp to a significant flow of water in heavy rainfall.
