Water supply leaks can manifest as an internal or external water leak. A unusually high water bill is a signal of a leaking water main. The single most common location of a water main leak is outside where the water supply pipe is influenced by ground movement which causes pipes to break or fittings to become damaged. Our specialists carry out a water meter leak test to verify if the leak is internal or external, then perform a leak detection investigation to discover the leak.
Underground water leaks originate from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, rusted pipes, tree root damage or poor installations. We detect underground water leaks by firstly assessing which pipes are beneath the ground. Our non destructive leak detection approach is used to identify the cause of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under-floor heating leaks often appear on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under-floor heating circuits include worn pipework, incorrect installation, damage to the pipes, age or a poor maintenance routine. Our technicians detect leaks on under floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks occur in the roof, walls or foundations of a building due to settling of building materials, subsidence, inadequate construction or overdue maintenance.
