Water mains leaks can show as an internal or external water leak. A unusually high water bill is a sign of a leaking water mains. The most frequent location of a water supply leak is outside where the water main is impacted by ground movement which causes pipes to fracture or fittings to become faulty. Our professionals carry out a water meter leak test to establish whether the leak is internal or external, then undertake a leak detection investigation to identify the leak.
Underground water leaks arise from water mains, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, degraded pipes, tree root damage or substandard installations. We identify underground water leaks by first establishing which pipes are below the ground. Our non destructive leak detection process is used to locate 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 underfloor heating circuits include corroded pipework, faulty installation, damage to the pipes, age or a inadequate maintenance routine. Our experts identify leaks on under floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks occur in the roof, walls or foundations of a building due to settlement of building materials, subsidence, inadequate construction or deferred maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team locate leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a suite of leak detection approaches including Tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks range from gradual water intrusion causing damp to a significant flow of water in heavy rainfall.
