Signs You May
Have a Leak
Here are some signs that could indicate that you have a hidden leak.
Significant increase in your water bill with no change in usage
Damp walls, skirting boards or mould patches
Constant sound of running water when taps are off
Wet ground or soggy lawn areas near the house
Drips or pooling of water under floors or around fittings
Our Plumbing Leak Detection Methods
We use industry-standard tools and techniques to pinpoint leaks accurately:
Acoustic and sound listening devices to detect escaping water underground
Pressure testing of pipes to confirm leaks
Thermal imaging to find moisture hidden behind walls and under floors
CCTV camera inspection in drain and sewer lines
Pool Leak Detection
Losing water from your swimming pool can be more than just a nuisance — it could be a sign of a serious leak that, over time, damages the structure, landscaping or pool equipment.
Professional leak detection means finding the problem quickly and precisely, so water loss stops before it becomes costly.
Our water leak detection service uses advanced, non-invasive technology to quickly locate leaks without damaging your property.
Why Professional Pool Leak Detection Matters
DIY tests, such as bucket or meter comparisons, can indicate water loss, but they rarely pinpoint the exact source.
Professional pool leak detection:
Saves time and money by finding leaks accurately
Minimises damage to your property
Reduces waste and lowers water bills
Protects the structural integrity of buildings and pools
Early detection prevents costly damage and unnecessary water loss.
Whether it’s your home or business, we’ll find the leak fast and efficiently.

Our Pool Leak Detection Process
We combine a range of specialised non-evasive techniques to find leaks both in pools:
Pressure testing of suction/return lines
Acoustic leak detection to listen for escaping water
Dye testing around fittings and cracks
Tracer gas detection to find underground pipe leaks
These methods allow us to locate leaks precisely without unnecessary excavation or pool draining.
