Water main leaks can manifest as an internal or external water leak. A unusually high water bill is a symptom of a leaking water supply line. The most common location of a water supply leak is outside where the water supply pipe is damaged by ground movement which causes pipes to split or fittings to become damaged. Our specialists carry out a water meter leak test to verify if the leak is internal or external, then complete a leak detection investigation to find the leak.
Underground water leaks develop from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, worn pipes, tree root damage or faulty installations. We locate underground water leaks by firstly establishing which pipes are under the ground. Our non-destructive leak detection process is used to pinpoint the location of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under floor heating leaks commonly appear on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on underfloor heating circuits include damaged pipework, poor installation, damage to the pipes, age or a lacking maintenance routine. Our specialists detect leaks on underfloor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks appear in the roof, wall or foundations of a building due to settling of building materials, subsidence, inadequate construction or deferred maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team detect leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a variety of leak detection techniques including tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks extend from slight water intrusion causing damp to a substantial flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water ingress appears where there are damaged tiles, damaged flashing, degraded mortar or damage around a chimney.

Drainage leaks happen on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include broken pipes, broken seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement. A drainage system is not pressurised so leak detection technologies are limited to CCTV investigations inside the pipe. Our drainage engineers provide a comprehensive inspection to find the cause of the leak and are usually able to perform a repair on the same day.
