Water mains leaks can present as an internal or external water leak. A unusually high water bill is a warning of a leaking water supply line. The most likely location of a water supply leak is outside where the water supply line is damaged by ground movement which causes pipes to split or fittings to become defective. Our engineers complete a water meter leak test to confirm if the leak is internal or external, then complete a leak detection investigation to pinpoint the leak.
Underground water leaks originate from water mains, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, corroded pipes, tree root damage or inadequate installations. We find underground water leaks by first determining which pipes are underneath the ground. Our non-destructive leak detection system is used to pinpoint the origin of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under-floor heating leaks regularly appear on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under floor heating circuits include degraded pipework, improper installation, damage to the pipes, age or a insufficient maintenance routine. Our engineers pinpoint leaks on underfloor 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 settlement of building materials, subsidence, defective construction or overdue maintenance.
