Water mains leaks can present as an internal or external water leak. A high water bill is a signal of a leaking water mains. The most frequent location of a water main leak is outside where the water supply line is affected by ground movement which causes pipes to break or fittings to become compromised. Our experts perform a water meter leak test to identify whether the leak is internal or external, then conduct a leak detection investigation to find the leak.
Underground water leaks develop from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, worn pipes, tree root damage or inadequate installations. We find underground water leaks by first assessing which pipes are below the ground. Our non-invasive leak detection technique is used to find the source of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under-floor heating leaks frequently appear on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under-floor heating circuits include degraded pipework, substandard installation, damage to the pipes, age or a deficient maintenance routine. Our professionals pinpoint leaks on under-floor 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 settlement of building materials, subsidence, faulty construction or insufficient maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team detect leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a array of leak detection systems including tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks extend from slight water intrusion causing damp to a substantial flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water intrusion 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, insufficient maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older.

Drainage Leaks arise on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include cracked pipes, deteriorated seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement.
