Water mains leaks can appear as an internal or external water leak. A unusually high water bill is a indicator of a leaking water main. The single most frequent location of a water supply leak is outside where the water main is impacted by ground movement which causes pipes to crack or fittings to become worn. Our specialists conduct a water meter leak test to confirm whether the leak is internal or external, then conduct a leak detection investigation to identify the leak.
Underground water leaks originate from water supply lines, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, deteriorated pipes, tree root damage or defective installations. We pinpoint underground water leaks by initially determining which pipes are underneath the ground. Our non-invasive leak detection technique is used to locate the location of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Underfloor heating leaks regularly arise on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on underfloor heating circuits include corroded pipework, poor installation, damage to the pipes, age or a poor maintenance routine. Our professionals locate leaks on under floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks happen in the roof, wall or foundations of a building due to settlement of building materials, subsidence, substandard construction or neglected maintenance.
