Water mains leaks can manifest as an internal or external water leak. A rising water bill is a symptom of a leaking water mains. The single most probable location of a water main leak is outside where the water main is impacted by ground movement which causes pipes to split or fittings to become compromised. Our specialists conduct a water meter leak test to establish whether the leak is internal or external, then perform a leak detection investigation to discover the leak.
Underground water leaks arise from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, worn pipes, tree root damage or defective installations. We discover underground water leaks by firstly establishing which pipes are beneath the ground. Our non-destructive leak detection approach is used to pinpoint the location of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under-floor heating leaks regularly happen on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under-floor heating circuits include corroded pipework, improper installation, damage to the pipes, age or a inadequate maintenance routine. Our professionals discover leaks on underfloor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks occur in the roof, wall or foundations of a building due to settlement of building materials, subsidence, defective construction or deferred maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team discover leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a variety of leak detection technologies including tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks extend from slow water intrusion causing damp to a severe flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water intrusion occurs where there are broken tiles, damaged flashing, degraded mortar or damage around a chimney.

Drainage leaks appear on internal and external drain pipework.
