Water supply leaks can present as an internal or external water leak. A high water bill is a sign of a leaking water supply line. The most likely location of a water supply leak is outside where the water mains is damaged by ground movement which causes pipes to break or fittings to become worn. Our engineers carry out a water meter leak test to confirm whether the leak is internal or external, then undertake a leak detection investigation to detect the leak.
Underground water leaks come from water supply lines, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, degraded pipes, tree root damage or poor installations. We find underground water leaks by firstly establishing which pipes are beneath the ground. Our non-invasive leak detection method is used to locate the location of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under floor heating leaks regularly appear on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on underfloor heating circuits include damaged pipework, poor installation, damage to the pipes, age or a poor maintenance routine. Our specialists detect leaks on underfloor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks happen in the roof, wall or foundations of a building due to settling of building materials, subsidence, poor construction or insufficient maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team pinpoint leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a array of leak detection methods including tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks range from slow water intrusion causing damp to a heavy flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water entry occurs where there are loose tiles, damaged flashing, degraded mortar or damage around a chimney.
