Water main leaks can show as an internal or external water leak. A elevated water bill is a warning of a leaking water mains. The single most probable location of a water mains leak is outside where the water supply line is damaged by ground movement which causes pipes to break or fittings to become worn. Our experts carry out a water meter leak test to verify whether the leak is internal or external, then carry out a leak detection investigation to detect the leak.
Underground water leaks arise from water mains, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, degraded pipes, tree root damage or poor installations. We detect underground water leaks by initially establishing which pipes are underneath the ground. Our non invasive leak detection method is used to locate the source of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under floor heating leaks regularly develop on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings.
