Water supply leaks can present as an internal or external water leak. A increased water bill is a sign of a leaking water mains. The most likely location of a water main leak is outside where the water supply line is influenced by ground movement which causes pipes to split or fittings to become defective. Our engineers conduct a water meter leak test to establish whether the leak is internal or external, then complete a leak detection investigation to pinpoint the leak.
Underground water leaks originate from water supply lines, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, worn pipes, tree root damage or poor installations. We pinpoint underground water leaks by initially determining which pipes are under the ground. Our non destructive leak detection method is used to identify the location of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under-floor heating leaks typically arise on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on underfloor heating circuits include damaged pipework, faulty installation, damage to the pipes, age or a inadequate maintenance routine. Our experts locate leaks on underfloor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks happen in the roof, walls or foundations of a building due to settlement of building materials, subsidence, defective construction or overdue maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team identify leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a variety of leak detection methods including tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks extend from gradual water intrusion causing damp to a severe flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water intrusion happens where there are cracked tiles, damaged flashing, worn mortar or damage around a chimney.
