Water mains leaks can appear as an internal or external water leak. A rising water bill is a indicator of a leaking water main. The most common location of a water main leak is outside where the water main is damaged by ground movement which causes pipes to split or fittings to become damaged. Our engineers complete a water meter leak test to confirm if the leak is internal or external, then undertake a leak detection investigation to pinpoint the leak.
Underground water leaks come from water supply lines, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, rusted pipes, tree root damage or substandard installations. We identify underground water leaks by first assessing which pipes are below the ground. Our non destructive leak detection system is used to trace the source of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under floor heating leaks frequently develop on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under floor heating circuits include deteriorated pipework, poor installation, damage to the pipes, age or a deficient maintenance routine. Our specialists discover leaks on underfloor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks arise in the roof, walls or foundations of a building due to settlement of building materials, subsidence, faulty construction or lacking maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team find leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a suite of leak detection systems including Tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks extend from gradual water intrusion causing damp to a heavy flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water intrusion occurs where there are damaged tiles, damaged flashing, deteriorating mortar or damage around a chimney.
