Water mains leaks can show as an internal or external water leak. A unusually high water bill is a indicator of a leaking water mains. The single most frequent location of a water mains leak is outside where the water main is impacted by ground movement which causes pipes to rupture or fittings to become defective. Our technicians perform a water meter leak test to confirm whether the leak is internal or external, then perform a leak detection investigation to locate 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 inadequate installations. We discover underground water leaks by firstly identifying which pipes are under the ground. Our non-invasive leak detection approach is used to identify the source of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under-floor heating leaks commonly develop on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on underfloor heating circuits include corroded pipework, incorrect installation, damage to the pipes, age or a insufficient maintenance routine. Our technicians discover leaks on under floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks develop in the roof, walls or foundations of a building due to settling of building materials, subsidence, faulty construction or insufficient maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team detect leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a range of leak detection methods including tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks extend from slight water intrusion causing damp to a major flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water intrusion develops where there are loose tiles, damaged flashing, degraded mortar or damage around a chimney.
