Water mains leaks can appear as an internal or external water leak. A high water bill is a indicator of a leaking water main. The most common location of a water supply leak is outside where the water main is impacted by ground movement which causes pipes to split or fittings to become compromised. Our professionals do a water meter leak test to confirm if the leak is internal or external, then undertake a leak detection investigation to pinpoint the leak.
Underground water leaks originate from water mains, 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 firstly determining which pipes are beneath the ground. Our non-invasive leak detection method is used to pinpoint 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 underfloor heating circuits include degraded pipework, substandard installation, damage to the pipes, age or a inadequate maintenance routine.
