Water leak detection and repair in the Illawarra

A higher water bill, a damp patch or the sound of running water? We track down hidden leaks and repair them.

Not every leak is obvious. Sometimes the first sign is a water bill that is higher than usual, a damp patch on a wall or ceiling, a soft spot in the floor, or the faint sound of water running when every tap is off.

Finding the leak

We start with the simple checks, such as reading the water meter with everything turned off to confirm there is a leak at all. Then we work through the likely spots: taps, toilets, hot water connections, pipes in walls and under floors, and the line between the meter and the house. We aim to find the source with as little disruption to your home as possible.

Repairing it properly

Once we know where it is, we explain what we found and give you a written quote to fix it. We repair the leak, test the system, and tell you if anything else looks like it could cause trouble later.

FAQ

Questions about this service

Still unsure? Call us on 0490 972 304.

How can I tell if I have a hidden leak?

Turn off every tap and water appliance, then watch your water meter for a few minutes. If it keeps moving, water is going somewhere it should not.

Will you need to cut into walls?

Sometimes access is needed, but we narrow the location down first so any opening is as small as we can make it. We will talk you through it before we start.

Is a burst pipe an emergency?

Yes. Turn off your water at the meter and call us on 0490 972 304. We offer a 24/7 emergency call-out.
