Water main leaks can appear as an internal or external water leak. A unusually high water bill is a signal of a leaking water supply line. The most probable location of a water mains leak is outside where the water supply line is affected by ground movement which causes pipes to break or fittings to become faulty. Our specialists conduct a water meter leak test to verify if the leak is internal or external, then carry out a leak detection investigation to locate the leak.
Underground water leaks develop 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 determining which pipes are beneath the ground. Our non invasive leak detection system is used to locate the cause of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under floor heating leaks frequently arise on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under floor heating circuits include degraded pipework, improper installation, damage to the pipes, age or a inadequate maintenance routine. Our specialists find 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 settlement of building materials, subsidence, defective construction or neglected maintenance.

Roof leaks vary from gradual water intrusion causing damp to a severe flow of water in heavy rainfall.
