Underground water leaks develop from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, corroded pipes, tree root damage or inadequate installations. We discover underground water leaks by first assessing which pipes are underneath the ground. Our non invasive leak detection system is used to track the origin of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Underfloor heating leaks typically appear on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on underfloor heating circuits include deteriorated pipework, substandard installation, damage to the pipes, age or a insufficient maintenance routine. Our experts detect leaks on under-floor 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 movement of building materials, subsidence, poor construction or neglected maintenance.
