The most frequent location of a water main leak is outside where the water supply pipe is damaged by ground movement which causes pipes to fracture or fittings to become compromised.

Underground water leaks develop from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, degraded pipes, tree root damage or inadequate installations. We find underground water leaks by initially determining which pipes are under the ground. Our non destructive leak detection process is used to identify the cause of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Underfloor heating leaks often arise on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under-floor heating circuits include deteriorated pipework, faulty installation, damage to the pipes, age or a poor maintenance routine. Our engineers identify leaks on under floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks occur in the roof, walls or foundations of a building due to settlement of building materials, subsidence, inadequate construction or deferred maintenance.
