Water supply leaks can manifest as an internal or external water leak. A elevated water bill is a indicator of a leaking water supply line. The most likely location of a water main leak is outside where the water supply line is damaged by ground movement which causes pipes to rupture or fittings to become damaged. Our technicians conduct a water meter leak test to determine if the leak is internal or external, then complete a leak detection investigation to identify the leak.
Underground water leaks arise from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, worn pipes, tree root damage or inadequate installations. We discover underground water leaks by initially evaluating which pipes are under the ground. Our non invasive leak detection system is used to identify the source of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under-floor heating leaks typically happen on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on underfloor heating circuits include worn pipework, poor installation, damage to the pipes, age or a poor maintenance routine. Our professionals identify leaks on underfloor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks arise in the roof, walls or foundations of a building due to settlement of building materials, subsidence, substandard 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 techniques including tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks vary from slight water intrusion causing damp to a heavy flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water entry appears where there are cracked tiles, damaged flashing, failing mortar or damage around a chimney.

Drainage Leaks develop 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.
