Our engineers complete a water meter leak test to confirm whether the leak is internal or external, then complete a leak detection investigation to locate the leak.

Below Ground Water Leaks

Underground water leaks develop from water supply lines, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, worn pipes, tree root damage or substandard installations. We identify underground water leaks by initially identifying which pipes are under the ground.

Causes of leaks on underfloor heating circuits include degraded pipework, improper installation, damage to the pipes, age or a inadequate maintenance routine. Our specialists pinpoint leaks on under-floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.

Building Leaks

Our structural leak investigation team locate leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a suite of leak detection techniques including tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
