Swimming pool leaks come from the pool structure, liner or be present anywhere on the filtration system. The single most typical cause of a swimming pool leak is cracked pipes on the filtration system caused by ground movement, more causes include deteriorated filtration system fittings or damage to the pool structure. Our PADI Accredited divers offer a SPATA recognised swimming pool leak detection service to discover the cause of swimming pool leaks
Water supply leaks can manifest as an internal or external water leak. A increased water bill is a sign of a leaking water main. The most typical location of a water mains leak is outside where the water supply line is influenced by ground movement which causes pipes to split or fittings to become faulty. Our professionals do a water meter leak test to verify whether the leak is internal or external, then perform a leak detection investigation to detect the leak.
Underground water leaks develop from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, corroded pipes, tree root damage or substandard installations. We detect underground water leaks by initially evaluating which pipes are below the ground. Our non-destructive leak detection approach is used to locate the source of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under-floor heating leaks often occur on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on underfloor heating circuits include worn pipework, incorrect installation, damage to the pipes, age or a deficient maintenance routine. Our engineers find leaks on under-floor 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, poor construction or overdue maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team identify 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 extend from gradual water intrusion causing damp to a substantial flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water penetration develops where there are loose 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. Discover the source of your roof leak by choosing our exceptionally expert roof leak investigation experts.
Shower and bathroom leaks develop from hidden pipework inside walls, below the bathtub, shower tray or sink. Causes of shower and bathroom leaks include deteriorated fixtures, fittings, washers and seals along with corrosion of pipes and loose plumbing fixtures. Our plumbing leak detection technicians discover leaks on bathroom pipework including hot and cold feeds to showers, baths, sinks and toilets using non-destructive leak detection equipment. Prevent further water damage to your property!
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. A drain system is not pressurised so leak detection approaches are limited to CCTV assessments inside the drainpipe. Our drainage specialist delivers a detailed inspection to locate the cause of the leak and is typically able to perform a repair on the same day.
