Water supply leaks can appear as an internal or external water leak. A increased water bill is a warning of a leaking water supply line.

Underground water leaks stem 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 locate underground water leaks by firstly evaluating which pipes are under the ground. Our non destructive leak detection approach is used to find the location of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Underfloor heating leaks frequently occur on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under-floor heating circuits include deteriorated pipework, incorrect installation, damage to the pipes, age or a inadequate maintenance routine.
