The single most probable location of a water mains leak is outside where the water main is influenced by ground movement which causes pipes to fracture or fittings to become defective. Our professionals carry out a water meter leak test to establish whether the leak is internal or external, then conduct a leak detection investigation to detect the leak.
Underground water leaks come from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, degraded pipes, tree root damage or faulty installations. We locate underground water leaks by firstly identifying which pipes are beneath the ground. Our non destructive leak detection system is used to identify the origin of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under floor heating leaks often appear on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on underfloor heating circuits include degraded pipework, incorrect installation, damage to the pipes, age or a inadequate maintenance routine. Our professionals locate leaks on underfloor 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 movement of building materials, subsidence, poor construction or neglected maintenance.
