Water mains leaks can present as an internal or external water leak. A unusually high water bill is a sign of a leaking water mains. The single most likely location of a water mains leak is outside where the water main is impacted by ground movement which causes pipes to fracture or fittings to become defective. Our engineers perform a water meter leak test to establish whether the leak is internal or external, then undertake a leak detection investigation to identify the leak.
Underground water leaks stem from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, worn pipes, tree root damage or defective installations. We identify underground water leaks by firstly establishing which pipes are below the ground. Our non-invasive leak detection technique is used to find the cause of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under-floor heating leaks often arise on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under-floor heating circuits include corroded pipework, poor installation, damage to the pipes, age or a insufficient maintenance routine. Our technicians find leaks on under-floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks occur in the roof, wall or foundations of a building due to settling of building materials, subsidence, faulty construction or deferred maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team detect leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a suite of leak detection systems including Tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks vary from gradual water intrusion causing damp to a significant flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water ingress happens where there are missing tiles, damaged flashing, crumbling mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, incorrect construction, inadequate maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older.
