Water supply leaks can manifest as an internal or external water leak. A elevated water bill is a signal of a leaking water main. The most likely location of a water main leak is outside where the water supply pipe is damaged by ground movement which causes pipes to fracture or fittings to become damaged. Our specialists do a water meter leak test to determine whether the leak is internal or external, then perform a leak detection investigation to detect the leak.
Underground water leaks originate from water mains, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, degraded pipes, tree root damage or poor installations. We locate underground water leaks by firstly identifying which pipes are underneath the ground. Our non invasive leak detection technique is used to find the origin of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under floor heating leaks often develop on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on underfloor heating circuits include corroded pipework, substandard installation, damage to the pipes, age or a inadequate maintenance routine. Our specialists detect leaks on under floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks appear in the roof, wall or foundations of a building due to settlement of building materials, subsidence, inadequate 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 technologies including tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks span from slow water intrusion causing damp to a significant flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water ingress develops where there are damaged tiles, damaged flashing, degraded mortar or damage around a chimney.
