Water mains leaks can appear as an internal or external water leak. A unusually high water bill is a symptom of a leaking water main. The most frequent location of a water supply leak is outside where the water mains is damaged by ground movement which causes pipes to fracture or fittings to become damaged. Our engineers conduct a water meter leak test to determine whether the leak is internal or external, then conduct a leak detection investigation to detect the leak.
Underground water leaks originate from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, corroded pipes, tree root damage or poor installations. We locate underground water leaks by first identifying which pipes are below the ground. Our non destructive leak detection method is used to find 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, substandard installation, damage to the pipes, age or a insufficient maintenance routine. Our technicians identify leaks on underfloor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks develop in the roof, wall or foundations of a building due to settlement of building materials, subsidence, poor construction or overdue maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team detect leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a array of leak detection approaches including tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks range from slight water intrusion causing damp to a major flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water ingress occurs where there are cracked tiles, damaged flashing, degraded mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, improper construction, insufficient maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older.

Drainage leaks occur on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include damaged pipes, deteriorated seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement.
