Water supply leaks can show as an internal or external water leak. A rising water bill is a sign of a leaking water main. The most likely location of a water mains leak is outside where the water supply line is impacted by ground movement which causes pipes to split or fittings to become defective. Our experts carry out a water meter leak test to verify if the leak is internal or external, then complete a leak detection investigation to pinpoint the leak.
Underground water leaks develop from water mains, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, worn pipes, tree root damage or defective installations. We find underground water leaks by first establishing which pipes are beneath the ground. Our non-invasive leak detection system is used to find the location of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Underfloor heating leaks typically arise 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 poor maintenance routine. Our professionals find leaks on under-floor 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 settling of building materials, subsidence, poor construction or lacking maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team find leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a array of leak detection technologies including Tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks vary from slight water intrusion causing damp to a heavy flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water entry happens where there are missing tiles, damaged flashing, degraded mortar or damage around a chimney.

Drainage Leaks appear on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include broken pipes, broken seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement. A drainage system is not under pressure so leak detection methods are limited to CCTV inspections inside the drainpipe.
