Water supply leaks can appear as an internal or external water leak. A increased water bill is a symptom of a leaking water supply line. The most likely location of a water main leak is outside where the water mains is influenced by ground movement which causes pipes to rupture or fittings to become damaged. Our experts do a water meter leak test to determine whether the leak is internal or external, then conduct a leak detection investigation to identify the leak.
Underground water leaks come from water supply lines, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, corroded pipes, tree root damage or faulty installations. We find underground water leaks by first assessing which pipes are beneath the ground. Our non destructive leak detection approach is used to track the cause of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under floor heating leaks commonly develop on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on underfloor heating circuits include worn 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, walls or foundations of a building due to movement of building materials, subsidence, defective construction or neglected maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team detect leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a selection of leak detection technologies including Tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks extend from slow water intrusion causing damp to a heavy flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water penetration happens where there are cracked tiles, damaged flashing, deteriorating mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, faulty construction, poor maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older. Pinpoint the source of your roof leak by choosing our highly qualified roof leak investigation technicians.
Shower and bathroom leaks arise from hidden pipework within walls, under the bathtub, shower tray or sink.

Our plumbing leak detection specialists detect leaks on bathroom pipework including hot and cold feeds to showers, baths, sinks and toilets using non invasive leak detection equipment. Eliminate further water damage to your property!
Drainage Leaks happen on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include split pipes, deteriorated seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement. A drainage system is not under pressure so leak detection approaches are limited to CCTV surveys inside the drainpipe. Our drainage expert carries out a thorough inspection to locate the cause of the leak and are usually able to undertake a repair on the same day.
