Drain Leaks

Drain Leaks

Drain leaks are like water supply leaks in that they discharge water in locations that are not connected with the source.

Often these leaks can travel 100’s of meters from the leaking drain. There is a method for locating them which involves cutting and testing. Putting dye down the drains can assist sometimes.

A drain camera will locate tree roots and large breaks but not small cracks. In most cases large sections of drain will need replacement. Drain cameras will not fix drains but are useful in locating the position of the drain and seeing its general condition.

Sewerage can discharge from stormwater drains when they are both broken.
