Water mains leaks can appear as an internal or external water leak. A rising water bill is a indicator of a leaking water mains. The single most frequent location of a water mains leak is outside where the water supply pipe is damaged by ground movement which causes pipes to crack or fittings to become faulty. Our engineers complete a water meter leak test to determine whether the leak is internal or external, then complete a leak detection investigation to discover the leak.
Underground water leaks develop from water mains, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, degraded pipes, tree root damage or defective installations. We detect underground water leaks by first evaluating which pipes are beneath the ground. Our non-invasive leak detection approach is used to pinpoint the location of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under floor heating leaks often arise on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under floor heating circuits include degraded pipework, incorrect installation, damage to the pipes, age or a inadequate maintenance routine. Our technicians detect leaks on under-floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks happen in the roof, walls or foundations of a building due to settlement of building materials, subsidence, poor construction or neglected maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team pinpoint leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a selection of leak detection techniques including Tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks extend from slight water intrusion causing damp to a severe flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water entry occurs where there are broken tiles, damaged flashing, degraded mortar or damage around a chimney.
