Water main leaks can show as an internal or external water leak. A high water bill is a indicator of a leaking water mains. The most common location of a water supply leak is outside where the water supply line is affected by ground movement which causes pipes to break or fittings to become damaged. Our technicians carry out a water meter leak test to establish if the leak is internal or external, then perform a leak detection investigation to find the leak.
Underground water leaks stem from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, degraded pipes, tree root damage or faulty installations. We pinpoint underground water leaks by first evaluating which pipes are under the ground. Our non invasive leak detection system is used to locate the source of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under floor heating leaks regularly develop on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under floor heating circuits include deteriorated pipework, improper installation, damage to the pipes, age or a deficient maintenance routine. Our technicians locate leaks on under floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks arise in the roof, wall or foundations of a building due to settlement of building materials, subsidence, inadequate construction or insufficient maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team detect leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a range of leak detection technologies including tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks range from minor water intrusion causing damp to a severe flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water entry appears where there are loose tiles, damaged flashing, deteriorating mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, incorrect construction, inadequate maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older. Identify the source of your roof leak by choosing our highly professional roof leak investigation professionals.

Eliminate further water damage to your property!
Drainage leaks appear on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include cracked pipes, broken seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement. A drain system is not pressurized so leak detection methods are limited to CCTV examinations inside the pipe.
