Water main leaks can show as an internal or external water leak. A unusually high water bill is a sign of a leaking water mains. The single most common location of a water main leak is outside where the water main is damaged by ground movement which causes pipes to crack or fittings to become defective. Our professionals do a water meter leak test to confirm whether the leak is internal or external, then complete a leak detection investigation to identify the leak.
Underground water leaks come from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, corroded pipes, tree root damage or defective installations. We identify underground water leaks by first assessing which pipes are below the ground. Our non-destructive leak detection approach is used to locate the origin of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under floor heating leaks frequently appear 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 detect leaks on underfloor 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, faulty construction or deferred 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 range from slow water intrusion causing damp to a substantial flow of water in heavy rainfall.

Drainage Leaks arise on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include split pipes, worn seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement.
