How do I know if I have a hidden water leak?

Common signs include unusually high water bills, damp or discoloured walls, mould growth, low water pressure, water pooling around your property, or hearing running water when no fixtures are in use.

Can you locate leaks without digging up my property?

In many cases, yes. We use specialised leak detection equipment to identify the location of leaks with minimal disruption and unnecessary excavation.

What types of leaks can you detect?

We can locate leaks in underground water pipes, walls, ceilings, floors, gardens, driveways, hot water systems, and other concealed plumbing infrastructure.

Why has my water bill suddenly increased?

A hidden water leak is one of the most common causes of unexpected increases in water usage and utility bills.

Can small leaks cause major damage?

Absolutely. Even a small leak can lead to structural damage, mould growth, timber deterioration, foundation issues, and costly repairs if left untreated.

What happens after the leak is located?

Once we’ve identified the source of the leak, we’ll explain the issue, provide repair options, and recommend the most effective solution.

How long does leak detection take?

The timeframe depends on the complexity and location of the leak, however many leaks can be located during a single visit.

Do you also repair leaks once they are found?

Yes. Our team can often carry out repairs following leak detection, helping resolve the issue as quickly as possible.

Just wanted to say thanks to Ryan Baum for orchestrating amazing repair and new installs on my three residential properties. His plumbers were polite informative, punctual and very tidy. Even in my absence they didn’t hesitate to explain everything to my wife in great detail. Can’t thank the team enough.
