Water supply leaks can show as an internal or external water leak. A elevated water bill is a sign of a leaking water main. The single most likely location of a water main leak is outside where the water supply pipe is impacted by ground movement which causes pipes to rupture or fittings to become defective.

Underground water leaks stem from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, corroded pipes, tree root damage or inadequate installations. We identify underground water leaks by first assessing which pipes are under the ground. Our non-invasive leak detection technique is used to identify the origin of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under floor heating leaks commonly appear on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings.
