Frequently Asked Questions

  • What are the signs of hidden water leaks?

    Hidden leaks may not be immediately visible but can manifest as higher water bills, damp patches, mould growth, musty odours, cracking or bubbling paint, and unusual sounds of running water when no taps are on. Early signs are often subtle, making regular inspection important. Detecting leaks before visible damage occurs helps prevent structural issues, water wastage, and costly repairs.

  • How is a leak detected without damaging property?

    Modern leak detection uses non-invasive methods such as thermal imaging, acoustic listening devices, and pressure testing to locate leaks without tearing into walls, floors, or ceilings. These technologies pinpoint the exact source, reducing disruption and repair costs. Minimally invasive techniques allow plumbers to diagnose the problem quickly while protecting the property’s integrity.

  • How often should a property be checked for leaks?

    Routine inspections are recommended at least once a year, especially in older homes, properties with slab foundations, or those with visible water pressure issues. 


    Regular checks help identify potential leaks early, maintain water efficiency, and prevent costly damage. Combining professional inspections with attentive monitoring of water usage is the most effective approach to leak management.
