Underground water leaks originate from water mains, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, degraded pipes, tree root damage or faulty installations. We pinpoint underground water leaks by first evaluating which pipes are underneath the ground. Our non-destructive leak detection system is used to find the source of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Underfloor heating leaks commonly develop on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under-floor heating circuits include corroded pipework, incorrect 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, inadequate construction or insufficient maintenance.
