Water mains leaks can present as an internal or external water leak. A rising water bill is a symptom of a leaking water main. The most probable location of a water main leak is outside where the water main is damaged by ground movement which causes pipes to break or fittings to become compromised. Our specialists do a water meter leak test to determine if the leak is internal or external, then complete a leak detection investigation to detect the leak.
Underground water leaks arise from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, rusted pipes, tree root damage or inadequate installations. We find underground water leaks by initially evaluating which pipes are underneath the ground. Our non invasive leak detection approach is used to trace the location of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Underfloor heating leaks frequently occur on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on underfloor heating circuits include damaged pipework, improper installation, damage to the pipes, age or a lacking maintenance routine. Our technicians pinpoint leaks on under floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks appear in the roof, wall or foundations of a building due to movement of building materials, subsidence, substandard construction or deferred maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team identify leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a selection of leak detection techniques including tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks extend from slight water intrusion causing damp to a heavy flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water penetration develops where there are cracked tiles, damaged flashing, degraded mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, faulty construction, lacking maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older.

Drainage Leaks happen on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include cracked pipes, damaged seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement. A drainage system is not pressurized so leak detection technologies are limited to CCTV investigations inside the drainage pipe.
