Water main leaks can manifest as an internal or external water leak. A elevated water bill is a signal of a leaking water main. The most common location of a water mains leak is outside where the water mains is affected by ground movement which causes pipes to fracture or fittings to become faulty. Our experts conduct a water meter leak test to establish if the leak is internal or external, then undertake a leak detection investigation to discover the leak.
Underground water leaks arise from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, worn pipes, tree root damage or substandard installations. We pinpoint underground water leaks by initially assessing which pipes are beneath the ground. Our non-destructive leak detection method is used to find the source of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under-floor heating leaks typically happen on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under floor heating circuits include worn pipework, poor 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 arise in the roof, wall or foundations of a building due to settling of building materials, subsidence, inadequate construction or deferred maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team pinpoint leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a array of leak detection techniques including Tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks span from slow water intrusion causing damp to a severe flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water entry develops where there are loose tiles, damaged flashing, failing mortar or damage around a chimney.
