Leak detection and burst pipe repairs
Expert repairs for burst pipes, leak detection, dripping taps, and emergency water isolation.
Overview
About our leaks & burst pipes service
Not every leak announces itself. A burst pipe is obvious, but a slow leak inside a wall or under a slab often shows up first as a rising water bill, a damp patch, or the sound of water running when every tap is closed.
We repair the leaks you can see and locate the ones you cannot, from dripping tapware and failing fittings through to concealed pipework in ceilings, walls and underfloor spaces. Where a pipe run has failed repeatedly, we can advise on replacing the section rather than patching it again.
Left alone, water damage compounds. Early leak detection is usually cheaper than the repair bill for the damage it causes.

When to call us
The signs that point to this service.
A water bill that jumped
An unexplained increase with no change in usage is one of the most common signs of a concealed leak.
Damp patches or staining
Discolouration on a ceiling or wall, bubbling paint, or a musty smell in a room that should be dry.
The meter moves with taps closed
Turn off every outlet and watch the water meter. Movement means water is escaping somewhere on the property.
Low water pressure
A drop in pressure across the property can point to a failure in the supply line rather than the fixtures.
