Water main leaks can present as an internal or external water leak. A high water bill is a indicator of a leaking water mains. The single most frequent location of a water main leak is outside where the water main is influenced by ground movement which causes pipes to crack or fittings to become compromised. Our engineers perform a water meter leak test to determine if the leak is internal or external, then carry out a leak detection investigation to pinpoint the leak.
Underground water leaks stem from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, degraded pipes, tree root damage or substandard installations. We detect underground water leaks by first determining which pipes are underneath the ground. Our non-invasive leak detection approach is used to find the origin of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Underfloor heating leaks often happen on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under-floor heating circuits include deteriorated pipework, substandard installation, damage to the pipes, age or a poor maintenance routine. Our technicians identify leaks on under floor 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, substandard construction or insufficient maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team discover leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a variety of leak detection approaches including tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks range from gradual water intrusion causing damp to a substantial flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water entry develops where there are damaged tiles, damaged flashing, deteriorating mortar or damage around a chimney.
