Water supply leaks can show as an internal or external water leak. A unusually high water bill is a symptom of a leaking water main. The single most common location of a water supply leak is outside where the water supply line is damaged by ground movement which causes pipes to crack or fittings to become worn. Our professionals perform a water meter leak test to establish if the leak is internal or external, then complete a leak detection investigation to locate the leak.
Underground water leaks arise from water mains, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, rusted pipes, tree root damage or faulty installations. We locate underground water leaks by initially establishing which pipes are below the ground. Our non destructive leak detection method is used to locate the source of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Underfloor heating leaks often develop on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on underfloor heating circuits include degraded pipework, substandard installation, damage to the pipes, age or a inadequate maintenance routine. Our technicians pinpoint 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, defective construction or lacking maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team locate leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a variety of leak detection approaches including Tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks vary from minor water intrusion causing damp to a severe flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water penetration happens where there are damaged tiles, damaged flashing, failing mortar or damage around a chimney.

Drainage Leaks occur on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include split pipes, worn seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement. A Drainage system is not under pressure so leak detection methods are limited to CCTV surveys inside the drainpipe.
