Water main leaks can appear as an internal or external water leak. A increased water bill is a sign of a leaking water main. The single most probable location of a water main leak is outside where the water supply pipe is damaged by ground movement which causes pipes to rupture or fittings to become compromised. Our engineers conduct a water meter leak test to determine if the leak is internal or external, then conduct a leak detection investigation to find 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 defective installations. We find underground water leaks by firstly establishing which pipes are under the ground. Our non destructive leak detection process is used to trace the cause 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 under-floor heating circuits include degraded pipework, poor installation, damage to the pipes, age or a lacking maintenance routine. Our professionals discover leaks on under-floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks occur in the roof, wall or foundations of a building due to settling of building materials, subsidence, substandard construction or lacking maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team find leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a range of leak detection approaches including Tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks extend from slow water intrusion causing damp to a heavy flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water entry develops where there are broken tiles, damaged flashing, degraded mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, substandard construction, poor maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older. Find the source of your roof leak by choosing our highly experienced roof leak investigation technicians.
Shower and bathroom leaks develop from hidden pipework behind walls, beneath the bathtub, shower tray or sink.

Drainage Leaks develop on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include split pipes, faulty seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement. A drainage system is not pressurized so leak detection approaches are limited to CCTV assessments inside the pipe.
