Swimming pool leaks originate from the pool structure, liner or be anywhere on the filtration system. The single most common cause of a swimming pool leak is fractured pipes on the filtration system caused by ground movement, further causes include faulty filtration system fittings or damage to the pool structure.

Water mains leaks can manifest as an internal or external water leak. A unusually high water bill is a signal of a leaking water supply line. The single most frequent location of a water supply leak is outside where the water supply pipe is influenced by ground movement which causes pipes to fracture or fittings to become worn. Our engineers conduct a water meter leak test to confirm if the leak is internal or external, then carry out a leak detection investigation to detect the leak.
Underground water leaks develop from water supply lines, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, deteriorated pipes, tree root damage or inadequate installations. We discover underground water leaks by firstly establishing which pipes are under the ground. Our non destructive leak detection process is used to trace the origin of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under floor heating leaks typically appear on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under-floor heating circuits include deteriorated pipework, poor installation, damage to the pipes, age or a poor maintenance routine. Our experts locate leaks on underfloor 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 movement of building materials, subsidence, inadequate construction or neglected maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team locate leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a variety of leak detection methods 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 entry develops where there are loose tiles, damaged flashing, degraded mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, poor construction, poor maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older.

Drainage Leaks appear on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include fractured pipes, worn seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement. A drainage system is not under pressure so leak detection techniques are limited to CCTV examinations inside the pipe.
