Water mains leaks can present as an internal or external water leak. A increased water bill is a symptom of a leaking water main. The most common location of a water main leak is outside where the water supply line is impacted by ground movement which causes pipes to break or fittings to become faulty. Our professionals do a water meter leak test to establish whether the leak is internal or external, then carry out a leak detection investigation to discover the leak.
Underground water leaks develop from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, rusted pipes, tree root damage or substandard installations. We detect underground water leaks by first determining which pipes are under the ground. Our non-invasive leak detection method is used to trace the origin 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 under-floor heating circuits include deteriorated pipework, incorrect installation, damage to the pipes, age or a poor maintenance routine. Our professionals locate leaks on underfloor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks appear in the roof, wall or foundations of a building due to movement of building materials, subsidence, faulty construction or deferred maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team locate leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a suite of leak detection technologies including Tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks extend from slow water intrusion causing damp to a significant flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water intrusion appears where there are damaged tiles, damaged flashing, crumbling mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, incorrect construction, poor maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older. Locate the source of your roof leak by choosing our highly qualified roof leak investigation experts.

Drainage leaks appear on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include cracked pipes, deteriorated seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement. A drain system is not pressurized so leak detection methods are limited to CCTV surveys inside the drainage pipe. Our drainage engineer carries out a thorough inspection to pinpoint the cause of the leak and are typically able to complete a repair on the same day.
