Water supply leaks can present as an internal or external water leak. A rising water bill is a indicator of a leaking water main. The single most probable location of a water supply leak is outside where the water supply pipe is damaged by ground movement which causes pipes to split or fittings to become damaged. Our technicians do a water meter leak test to verify whether the leak is internal or external, then complete a leak detection investigation to locate the leak.
Underground water leaks come from water mains, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, degraded pipes, tree root damage or faulty installations. We pinpoint underground water leaks by firstly evaluating which pipes are underneath the ground. Our non destructive leak detection method is used to pinpoint the source of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Underfloor heating leaks commonly occur on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under floor heating circuits include deteriorated pipework, incorrect installation, damage to the pipes, age or a poor maintenance routine. Our engineers pinpoint leaks on under floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks occur in the roof, walls or foundations of a building due to settling of building materials, subsidence, substandard construction or neglected maintenance.
