Water main leaks can present as an internal or external water leak. A unusually high water bill is a indicator of a leaking water main. The most probable location of a water mains leak is outside where the water supply line is influenced by ground movement which causes pipes to break or fittings to become faulty. Our professionals perform a water meter leak test to determine whether the leak is internal or external, then carry out a leak detection investigation to find the leak.
Underground water leaks stem from water mains, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, degraded pipes, tree root damage or defective installations. We locate underground water leaks by initially assessing which pipes are under the ground. Our non invasive leak detection approach is used to track the location of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under-floor heating leaks typically occur on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under floor heating circuits include corroded pipework, incorrect installation, damage to the pipes, age or a poor maintenance routine. Our professionals pinpoint leaks on under-floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks happen in the roof, walls or foundations of a building due to settling of building materials, subsidence, defective construction or overdue maintenance.
