Water supply leaks can show as an internal or external water leak. A unusually high water bill is a symptom of a leaking water supply line. The single most likely location of a water mains leak is outside where the water supply pipe is influenced by ground movement which causes pipes to crack or fittings to become damaged. Our professionals do a water meter leak test to establish if the leak is internal or external, then perform a leak detection investigation to identify the leak.
Underground water leaks come from water mains, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, corroded pipes, tree root damage or defective installations. We detect underground water leaks by initially evaluating which pipes are beneath the ground. Our non destructive leak detection process is used to locate the cause of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under floor heating leaks typically occur on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under floor heating circuits include worn pipework, substandard installation, damage to the pipes, age or a lacking maintenance routine. Our professionals discover 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, poor construction or neglected maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team detect leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a suite of leak detection methods including Tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks extend from minor water intrusion causing damp to a substantial flow of water in heavy rainfall.
