Water supply leaks can manifest as an internal or external water leak. A unusually high water bill is a indicator of a leaking water mains. The most typical location of a water main leak is outside where the water supply pipe is damaged by ground movement which causes pipes to break or fittings to become faulty.

Underground water leaks originate from water mains, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, corroded pipes, tree root damage or poor installations. We find underground water leaks by first determining which pipes are below the ground. Our non-invasive leak detection approach is used to find the source of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under floor heating leaks regularly arise on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings.
