Water main leaks can manifest as an internal or external water leak. A elevated water bill is a sign of a leaking water main. The most frequent location of a water main leak is outside where the water supply line is impacted by ground movement which causes pipes to crack or fittings to become defective. Our professionals complete a water meter leak test to determine whether the leak is internal or external, then complete a leak detection investigation to find the leak.
Underground water leaks stem from water supply lines, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, rusted pipes, tree root damage or defective installations. We discover underground water leaks by first establishing which pipes are underneath the ground. Our non-destructive leak detection system is used to trace the cause of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Underfloor heating leaks frequently arise on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under-floor heating circuits include degraded pipework, poor installation, damage to the pipes, age or a deficient maintenance routine. Our engineers locate 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, substandard construction or lacking maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team detect leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a range of leak detection systems including tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks extend from slight water intrusion causing damp to a heavy flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water penetration develops where there are cracked tiles, damaged flashing, failing mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, faulty construction, poor maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older.
