Water supply leaks can show as an internal or external water leak. A elevated water bill is a indicator of a leaking water main. The single most common location of a water supply leak is outside where the water supply pipe is impacted by ground movement which causes pipes to break or fittings to become compromised. Our experts do a water meter leak test to establish if the leak is internal or external, then undertake a leak detection investigation to find the leak.
Underground water leaks stem from water supply lines, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, worn pipes, tree root damage or substandard installations. We find underground water leaks by first establishing which pipes are underneath the ground. Our non destructive leak detection process is used to track the cause 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 damaged pipework, incorrect installation, damage to the pipes, age or a poor maintenance routine. Our specialists detect 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 settling of building materials, subsidence, faulty construction or lacking maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team identify leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a suite of leak detection systems including tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks extend from slight water intrusion causing damp to a severe flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water intrusion occurs where there are broken tiles, damaged flashing, failing mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, substandard construction, neglected maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older. Pinpoint the source of your roof leak by choosing our highly skilled roof leak investigation technicians.
Shower and bathroom leaks come from hidden pipework within walls, underneath the bathtub, shower tray or sink.

Our plumbing leak detection experts pinpoint leaks on bathroom pipework including hot and cold feeds to showers, baths, sinks and toilets using non invasive leak detection equipment. Prevent further water damage to your property!
Drainage leaks develop on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include split pipes, damaged seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement. A drainage system is not under pressure so leak detection approaches are limited to CCTV assessments inside the drain pipe. Our drainage expert provides a full inspection to find the cause of the leak and is often able to execute a repair on the same day.
