Water mains leaks can show as an internal or external water leak. A elevated water bill is a signal of a leaking water main. The single most frequent location of a water main leak is outside where the water mains is affected by ground movement which causes pipes to break or fittings to become damaged. Our technicians complete a water meter leak test to determine whether the leak is internal or external, then carry out a leak detection investigation to find the leak.
Underground water leaks arise from water supply lines, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, rusted pipes, tree root damage or inadequate installations. We find underground water leaks by first establishing which pipes are under the ground. Our non invasive leak detection process is used to trace the source 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 degraded pipework, substandard installation, damage to the pipes, age or a lacking maintenance routine. Our professionals identify leaks on under floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks appear in the roof, walls or foundations of a building due to settling of building materials, subsidence, poor construction or insufficient maintenance.

Roof leaks vary from slight water intrusion causing damp to a significant flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water entry appears where there are loose tiles, damaged flashing, crumbling mortar or damage around a chimney.

Drainage leaks occur on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include broken pipes, deteriorated seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement. A drainage system is not under pressure so leak detection methods are limited to CCTV examinations inside the drainage pipe. Our drainage specialist provides a detailed inspection to pinpoint the cause of the leak and is generally able to carry out a repair on the same day.
