Water supply leaks can show as an internal or external water leak. A unusually high water bill is a symptom of a leaking water main. The most probable location of a water mains leak is outside where the water main is affected by ground movement which causes pipes to split or fittings to become damaged. Our engineers complete a water meter leak test to establish if the leak is internal or external, then complete a leak detection investigation to pinpoint the leak.
Underground water leaks originate from water supply lines, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, rusted pipes, tree root damage or faulty installations. We discover underground water leaks by firstly evaluating which pipes are below the ground. Our non-destructive leak detection system is used to find the origin of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Underfloor heating leaks frequently develop on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under-floor heating circuits include deteriorated pipework, faulty installation, damage to the pipes, age or a poor maintenance routine.
