When to Call Us About Water Leak Detection
Some leaks show themselves straight away. Most don't, and the first clue is usually your water bill or a spot that never quite dries out. Watch for these signs.
- The meter still ticks over with everything in the house switched off
- A rising water bill you can't otherwise explain
- A damp patch, mould smell or lifting flooring with no visible cause
- Warm patches on a slab floor, often a sign of a hot water line
- A hissing sound from a wall or under the floor
Water Leak Detection, From Assessment to Fix
Finding a hidden leak takes the right approach, not guesswork. Here's how we narrow it down and fix it.
- Check the meter and isolate different sections of the property.
- Use listening and tracing equipment to narrow the leak's location.
- Confirm the exact point before any wall, slab or garden is disturbed.
- Repair the pipe or fitting causing the leak.
- Check nearby fittings for early signs of the same wear.
- Confirm the fix by re-checking the meter before we leave.
What Affects the Price of Water Leak Detection
Tracing a leak is a different job to fixing one, and both affect the number. Here's what goes into it.
- Where the leak sits, slab, wall cavity or somewhere in the yard line
- The overall footprint of the property that needs checking
- Access, including gardens, paving or tiled areas
- Whether it's tracing only or tracing plus repair
- Attending overnight versus during business hours
Either way, you get one fixed figure before we start tracing anything, not an open-ended hourly bill.
What We See in Marayong Homes
Brick-veneer and fibro are the two materials that dominate Osborne Road and the streets around it, both common across Marayong's original building wave.
Slab-on-ground homes from that era often ran copper hot and cold lines straight through or under the slab, and copper doesn't stay leak-free forever.
When one of those lines starts weeping, it shows up as a damp patch or a mysteriously warm section of floor, long before any water reaches the surface.
The Process, From Quote to Warranty
- Step one, you call and we take down the water leak detection details.
- Step two, a licensed plumber assesses the job in person.
- Step three, you get a fixed water leak detection quote and decide.
- Step four, we complete the water leak detection and back it for life.
For a straightforward trace, most jobs are done in one visit. Where a leak's running under a slab like the ones common around Osborne Road, tracing alone can take a little longer before we even start the repair.
Standards and Safety, Explained Simply
Leak detection itself doesn't require breaking anything open, but the repair that follows does need a licensed plumber under NSW law, especially where it involves gas hot water lines or backflow-prevention devices.
If a leak's affecting a shared wall or a common area in a strata property, body corporate rules can also come into play, and we'll flag that clearly rather than assume.
Lic #465156C keeps us covered for the detection work and whatever repair follows it.
What Sets Our Work Apart
Leak detection is where cutting corners costs you the most, an open-and-guess approach means holes in the wrong wall and a bigger bill. We trace properly before we touch anything.
You'll know the price before we start, and you can call us about it any hour, not just during business hours.
Servicing Nearby Homes Too
If what you've got is a dripping tap rather than a hidden leak, that's a simpler fix covered on our leaking tap repair page. Should tracing uncover a genuine burst instead, that shifts to our burst and leaking pipes team.
We're regularly working in Kings Langley and Doonside as well as Marayong itself.

Common questions
Questions We Get About Water Leak Detection
Is water leak detection a quick job or a long one?
It depends on where the leak is. A leak in an accessible spot can be traced in under an hour, while one under a slab takes longer to pin down properly.
Will it be safe to use straight after water leak detection?
Yes, once we've confirmed the fix and rechecked the meter, the water supply is safe to use as normal straight away.
Is water leak detection something a licensed plumber has to do?
The tracing itself doesn't legally require a licence, but any repair that follows does under NSW law, so it makes sense to use a licensed plumber for both.
Do you offer free quotes for water leak detection?
Yes, we'll assess what's involved and give you a free, no-obligation quote before any tracing or repair work starts.
Is water leak detection different in a strata building?
Sometimes. Shared walls and common-area pipework can mean body corporate approval is needed first, and we'll say so upfront rather than assume.
Does the $65 first-service offer apply to water leak detection?
Yes, new customers get $65 off their first service, and that includes water leak detection.
