Water main leaks can manifest as an internal or external water leak. A elevated water bill is a indicator of a leaking water supply line. The single most likely location of a water supply leak is outside where the water supply line is affected by ground movement which causes pipes to split or fittings to become faulty. Our technicians conduct a water meter leak test to verify whether the leak is internal or external, then carry out a leak detection investigation to discover the leak.
Underground water leaks come from water mains, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, deteriorated pipes, tree root damage or poor installations. We pinpoint underground water leaks by firstly identifying which pipes are below the ground. Our non-invasive leak detection approach is used to track the origin of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Underfloor heating leaks commonly arise on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under floor heating circuits include deteriorated pipework, faulty installation, damage to the pipes, age or a insufficient maintenance routine. Our engineers detect 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, inadequate construction or overdue maintenance.
