Water supply leaks can manifest as an internal or external water leak. A rising water bill is a signal of a leaking water supply line. The most frequent location of a water main leak is outside where the water mains is impacted by ground movement which causes pipes to crack or fittings to become compromised. Our professionals do a water meter leak test to identify if the leak is internal or external, then undertake a leak detection investigation to discover the leak.
Underground water leaks stem from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, deteriorated pipes, tree root damage or poor installations. We locate underground water leaks by firstly determining which pipes are beneath the ground. Our non destructive leak detection technique is used to track the source of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Underfloor heating leaks often occur on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on underfloor heating circuits include degraded pipework, poor installation, damage to the pipes, age or a poor maintenance routine. Our specialists locate 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 settlement of building materials, subsidence, poor construction or lacking maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team discover leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a variety of leak detection technologies including tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks extend from gradual water intrusion causing damp to a significant flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water intrusion occurs where there are broken tiles, damaged flashing, deteriorating mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, faulty construction, inadequate maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older.
