Water main leaks can show as an internal or external water leak. A high water bill is a symptom of a leaking water mains. The most typical location of a water main leak is outside where the water mains is influenced by ground movement which causes pipes to crack or fittings to become compromised. Our engineers perform a water meter leak test to confirm if the leak is internal or external, then complete a leak detection investigation to detect 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 substandard installations. We identify underground water leaks by initially assessing which pipes are under the ground. Our non destructive leak detection process is used to identify the origin of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Underfloor heating leaks often appear on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under-floor heating circuits include corroded pipework, faulty installation, damage to the pipes, age or a poor maintenance routine. Our specialists find leaks on under-floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks happen in the roof, wall or foundations of a building due to settlement of building materials, subsidence, poor construction or neglected 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 significant flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water entry happens where there are missing tiles, damaged flashing, deteriorating mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, substandard construction, poor maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older.
