Water mains leaks can appear as an internal or external water leak. A unusually high water bill is a indicator of a leaking water supply line. The single most typical location of a water mains leak is outside where the water supply line is damaged by ground movement which causes pipes to rupture or fittings to become worn. Our engineers complete a water meter leak test to verify whether the leak is internal or external, then complete a leak detection investigation to pinpoint 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 faulty installations. We identify underground water leaks by first establishing which pipes are underneath the ground. Our non-destructive leak detection approach is used to pinpoint the origin of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Underfloor heating leaks commonly happen on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under floor heating circuits include degraded pipework, improper installation, damage to the pipes, age or a deficient maintenance routine.
