Leak detection & quality assurance testing

Testing is how a liner is proven. We test seams with our own testing equipment and record every test, so the results go straight into the project's QA/QC and CQA documentation. Calibration certificates for our testing equipment are available on request.

Non-destructive testing

  • Vacuum box testing: a box with a transparent top is sealed over the wetted seam, and any leak shows as bubbles under vacuum
  • Spark testing of welds for pinholes
  • Non-destructive testing practice in line with ASTM D4437

Destructive testing

Trial welds and seam samples are tested in peel and shear with our on-site tensiometer. Third-party validation is available on request.

Repairs and records

Every repair is documented and retested. Seam, test-location and repair records feed the as-built drawings, the detailed daily reports and the handover documentation.

Leak location surveys

Where a project specifies a leak location survey after cover placement, we coordinate it with specialist survey providers.
