Water mains leaks can appear as an internal or external water leak. A high water bill is a symptom of a leaking water supply line. The most typical location of a water main leak is outside where the water supply pipe is influenced by ground movement which causes pipes to split or fittings to become faulty. Our experts do a water meter leak test to identify whether the leak is internal or external, then undertake 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, deteriorated pipes, tree root damage or inadequate installations. We identify underground water leaks by first establishing which pipes are underneath the ground. Our non invasive leak detection technique is used to track the origin of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Underfloor heating leaks frequently appear on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under-floor heating circuits include corroded pipework, improper installation, damage to the pipes, age or a lacking maintenance routine. Our professionals locate leaks on under-floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks appear in the roof, wall or foundations of a building due to settlement of building materials, subsidence, defective construction or neglected maintenance.

Roof leaks span from slight water intrusion causing damp to a heavy flow of water in heavy rainfall.
