Water main leaks can manifest as an internal or external water leak. A unusually high water bill is a signal of a leaking water supply line. The single most likely location of a water main leak is outside where the water mains is influenced by ground movement which causes pipes to split or fittings to become worn. Our engineers carry out a water meter leak test to confirm if the leak is internal or external, then complete a leak detection investigation to pinpoint the leak.
Underground water leaks develop from water supply lines, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, deteriorated pipes, tree root damage or faulty installations. We detect underground water leaks by first assessing which pipes are beneath the ground. Our non-invasive leak detection process is used to pinpoint the cause of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under floor heating leaks commonly arise on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on underfloor heating circuits include corroded pipework, substandard installation, damage to the pipes, age or a lacking maintenance routine. Our technicians discover 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 movement of building materials, subsidence, faulty construction or deferred maintenance.
