Water supply leaks can present as an internal or external water leak. A high water bill is a sign of a leaking water supply line. The most frequent location of a water supply leak is outside where the water main is damaged by ground movement which causes pipes to rupture or fittings to become faulty. Our specialists do a water meter leak test to establish whether the leak is internal or external, then perform a leak detection investigation to find the leak.
Underground water leaks come from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, deteriorated pipes, tree root damage or faulty installations. We discover underground water leaks by initially determining which pipes are beneath the ground. Our non-invasive leak detection process is used to locate the source of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Underfloor heating leaks typically happen 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 poor maintenance routine.

Building leaks appear in the roof, walls or foundations of a building due to movement of building materials, subsidence, poor construction or neglected maintenance.
