What we do

Our Leak Detection Services

We locate and repair the full range of hidden plumbing leaks in residential homes, using non-invasive acoustic and thermal tools that protect floors, walls, and gardens while our licensed local team pinpoints the exact source:

Hidden Water Leaks

Our acoustic listening equipment pinpoints hidden water leaks behind walls, in ceilings, and under floors of the home, locating the exact source point before any access work begins on site.

Slab Leak Detection

Concrete slab leaks in older brick homes get located using acoustic and thermal imaging tools, avoiding the cost of breaking up the entire slab just to find one failure point.

Gas Leak Detection

Suspected gas leaks at the meter, inside the home, or on appliance lines get traced with acoustic and pressure-test tools, with licensed [gas-fitter](/gas-fitting/) repair completed safely on the same call.

Acoustic and Thermal Location

Specialist acoustic listening and thermal imaging detect temperature differentials and pressure noise from active hidden leaks, locating the exact leak source behind sealed walls, floors, and slab surfaces with precision.

Leak Repair After Detection

Once the leak is located, our team performs the repair to AS/NZS 3500 plumbing standards, with minimal access work and our full Lifetime Labour Warranty backing the finished repair job.

Why it matters

Why Leak Detection Choice Matters for Older Homes

Hidden leaks waste water, damage property, and inflate bills for months before they get found. Detection done properly saves real money and avoids confusion with [blocked drains](/blocked-drains/) or surface plumbing issues across the older home:

  • Undetected leaks add up on the quarterly water bill
  • Wall and ceiling damage compounds the longer the leak runs
  • Slab moisture leads to mould, rot, and rising-damp problems
  • Insurance claims need timely action to limit the damage
  • Non-invasive tools save the cost of speculative excavation
Emergency

When a Hidden Leak Becomes an Emergency

Not every leak is urgent, but the scenarios below are. If any of these are happening at home, call us straight away rather than waiting for a routine appointment:

Call now if any of these are happening. We aim to be on-site within the hour where availability allows. Turn the water off at the mains while waiting for us.
Common faults

Common Hidden Leak Problems We Fix in Older Homes

The hidden leak calls we take across the area follow predictable patterns. These are the recurring issues our team locates and repairs most often for homeowners around the suburb:

01

Corroding galvanised water lines in pre-war cottages

Belair's oldest cottages around the station precinct often still run galvanised water lines that corrode from the inside, dropping flow at the taps and developing pinhole leaks inside the walls.

02

Slab leaks under concrete floors

Slab leaks under concrete floors hide failed plumbing joins that are difficult to find without specialist tools. Acoustic and thermal detection locate the source before any concrete cutting work begins on site.

03

Hidden bathroom and laundry wall leaks

Leaks inside walls behind showers, baths, and laundry tubs cause damp damage that often gets blamed on condensation. We diagnose the actual source and repair from the cleanest access point available.

04

Pressure-side service line leaks

Leaks on the pressure side of the water meter often go unnoticed until the bill jumps. We pressure-test the system and locate the failed [burst pipe](/burst-pipes/) section for repair without excavating the entire line.

We have set the leak detection process up to be non-invasive and predictable. From the first call to the final repair, here is what to expect when you book us in:

FAQs

Common Questions About Hidden Leak Detection

These are the questions we hear most often from homeowners who suspect a hidden leak somewhere in the house, the slab, the garden, or on a gas appliance line at home.

How quickly can you find a hidden leak in Belair?

For urgent leaks we aim to be on-site within the hour where availability allows. Acoustic and thermal detection usually pinpoints the exact source in a single visit, day or night.

Do you offer 24/7 emergency leak detection?

Yes. Hidden leaks behind walls or under slabs are answered as urgent priority. Our team is set up for around-the-clock response, every day of the year for serious leak situations.

How does leak detection pricing work?

We use Fixed Upfront Pricing on detection and repair. You get a quoted price before any work starts, so there are no hourly rates and no bill shock when the job is finished.

How do you find a leak without digging or cutting walls?

We use acoustic listening equipment, thermal imaging, and pressure testing to locate hidden leaks non-invasively. Walls and floors stay intact while our team pinpoints the exact source for the repair.

Our leak repair workmanship is backed by our Lifetime Labour Warranty. If the repair fails due to our installation work, our team returns and fixes it at no cost to you.

Can you find leaks in galvanised water pipes in older Belair homes?

Yes. Pre-war cottages around the station precinct and the village's older streets often still run galvanised water lines that develop pinhole leaks, and our acoustic tools find them without unnecessary wall cutting.
