Water mains leaks can manifest as an internal or external water leak. A elevated water bill is a warning of a leaking water mains. The most frequent location of a water main leak is outside where the water supply pipe is affected by ground movement which causes pipes to rupture or fittings to become faulty. Our specialists do a water meter leak test to determine whether the leak is internal or external, then carry out a leak detection investigation to pinpoint the leak.
Underground water leaks arise from water mains, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, worn pipes, tree root damage or defective installations. We discover underground water leaks by first identifying which pipes are underneath the ground. Our non destructive leak detection system is used to pinpoint the cause of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Underfloor heating leaks often arise on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under floor heating circuits include damaged pipework, improper installation, damage to the pipes, age or a inadequate maintenance routine. Our technicians pinpoint leaks on under floor 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 insufficient maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team locate leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a selection of leak detection methods including tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks extend from slight water intrusion causing damp to a significant flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water intrusion appears where there are loose tiles, damaged flashing, crumbling mortar or damage around a chimney.

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