Water mains leaks can present as an internal or external water leak. A unusually high water bill is a sign of a leaking water main. The single most typical location of a water mains leak is outside where the water supply pipe is impacted by ground movement which causes pipes to fracture or fittings to become faulty. Our professionals conduct a water meter leak test to verify whether the leak is internal or external, then perform a leak detection investigation to pinpoint the leak.
Underground water leaks develop from water mains, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, deteriorated pipes, tree root damage or faulty installations. We discover underground water leaks by firstly identifying which pipes are below the ground. Our non destructive leak detection system is used to identify the origin of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Underfloor heating leaks regularly develop on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under-floor heating circuits include damaged pipework, incorrect installation, damage to the pipes, age or a poor maintenance routine. Our experts discover leaks on under floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks develop in the roof, walls or foundations of a building due to movement of building materials, subsidence, substandard construction or insufficient maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team locate leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a range of leak detection techniques including Tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks range from slow water intrusion causing damp to a major flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water ingress happens where there are damaged tiles, damaged flashing, crumbling mortar or damage around a chimney.

Drainage leaks occur on internal and external drain pipework.
