Water mains leaks can show as an internal or external water leak. A rising water bill is a signal of a leaking water supply line. The most likely location of a water mains leak is outside where the water supply pipe is affected by ground movement which causes pipes to split or fittings to become compromised. Our specialists perform a water meter leak test to establish if the leak is internal or external, then perform a leak detection investigation to detect the leak.
Underground water leaks develop from water mains, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, corroded pipes, tree root damage or inadequate installations. We locate underground water leaks by firstly assessing which pipes are below the ground. Our non-destructive leak detection process is used to find the location of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under floor heating leaks frequently occur on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under-floor heating circuits include damaged pipework, substandard installation, damage to the pipes, age or a deficient maintenance routine. Our engineers find leaks on underfloor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks arise in the roof, walls or foundations of a building due to movement of building materials, subsidence, substandard construction or deferred maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team find leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a array of leak detection techniques including Tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks span from slight water intrusion causing damp to a substantial flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water entry happens where there are missing tiles, damaged flashing, deteriorating mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, incorrect construction, neglected maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older. Pinpoint the source of your roof leak by choosing our exceptionally experienced roof leak investigation team.
Shower and bathroom leaks originate from hidden pipework inside walls, below the bathtub, shower tray or sink. Causes of shower and bathroom leaks include degraded fixtures, fittings, washers and seals along with corrosion of pipes and loose plumbing fixtures. Our plumbing leak detection engineers identify leaks on bathroom pipework including hot and cold feeds to showers, baths, sinks and toilets using non destructive leak detection equipment. Avoid further water damage to your property!
Drainage leaks appear on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include damaged pipes, broken seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement. A drain system is not under pressure so leak detection techniques are limited to CCTV inspections inside the pipe. Our drainage specialist provides a detailed inspection to find the cause of the leak and is usually able to undertake a repair on the same day.
