Swimming pool leaks arise from the pool structure, liner or be located anywhere on the filtration system.

Water mains leaks can manifest as an internal or external water leak. A high water bill is a indicator of a leaking water main. The single most typical location of a water mains leak is outside where the water supply pipe is damaged by ground movement which causes pipes to break or fittings to become defective. Our engineers carry out a water meter leak test to determine whether the leak is internal or external, then carry out a leak detection investigation to detect the leak.
Underground water leaks stem 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 pinpoint underground water leaks by first identifying which pipes are under the ground. Our non invasive leak detection system is used to trace the origin of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under floor heating leaks commonly happen on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under floor heating circuits include damaged pipework, incorrect installation, damage to the pipes, age or a poor maintenance routine. Our professionals detect leaks on under floor 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 settling of building materials, subsidence, substandard construction or overdue maintenance.

Drainage Leaks develop on internal and external drain pipework.
