Water supply leaks can appear as an internal or external water leak. A rising water bill is a sign of a leaking water mains. The most probable location of a water mains leak is outside where the water supply line is influenced by ground movement which causes pipes to split or fittings to become worn. Our engineers carry out a water meter leak test to establish whether the leak is internal or external, then perform a leak detection investigation to pinpoint the leak.
Underground water leaks develop from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, rusted pipes, tree root damage or defective installations. We pinpoint underground water leaks by firstly evaluating which pipes are below the ground. Our non-invasive leak detection approach is used to find the cause of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Underfloor heating leaks typically occur on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under-floor heating circuits include corroded pipework, faulty installation, damage to the pipes, age or a poor maintenance routine. Our specialists locate leaks on underfloor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks develop in the roof, walls or foundations of a building due to settling of building materials, subsidence, faulty construction or overdue maintenance.
