Water mains leaks can appear as an internal or external water leak. A rising water bill is a sign of a leaking water mains. The most frequent location of a water supply leak is outside where the water main is influenced by ground movement which causes pipes to rupture or fittings to become defective. Our technicians conduct a water meter leak test to identify if the leak is internal or external, then undertake 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, degraded pipes, tree root damage or defective installations. We discover underground water leaks by first establishing which pipes are under the ground. Our non-invasive leak detection technique is used to locate the source of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under floor heating leaks often occur on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under-floor heating circuits include worn pipework, incorrect installation, damage to the pipes, age or a insufficient maintenance routine. Our technicians detect leaks on under floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks appear in the roof, walls or foundations of a building due to settling of building materials, subsidence, inadequate 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 methods including Tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks span from minor water intrusion causing damp to a heavy flow of water in heavy rainfall.
