• Water meter observation

Leaking pipes are often an emergency and cause considerable cost and heartache to you as the owner. Whilst many homeowners carry out maintenance on a regular basis, leaks can go undetected and cause considerable damage. Whether you’re a residential or commercial property owner, leak detection services are necessary to prevent and protect your assets. We always recommend proactive/routine plumbing maintenance to help catch any early signs of possible undetected leaks.

Leak detection, in its basic form, is by way of dye testing, pressure testing, visual inspection, mini cameras, acoustic detection and tracer gas detection. Our job is rarely an easy one but we help by being an all-in-one solution.

Our job is to work until we find a solution. It’s quite rare that our leak detection team would come back without an explanation for your leak problem. Our job is a tough one sometimes and we are your last resort in many cases. We aim to go above and beyond with our communication, keeping you up to date every step of the way, ensuring all questions are answered so you know exactly what is going on.

Industry-wide leak detection base rates will range from $250-$600 and this all depends upon the time on site and the difficulty and scale of the leak detection required. The tougher the leak, the higher the cost. We are upfront with our rates and costs of services, feel free to call our friendly team at Find Leak Detection for more information.

You can use your water meter to see if you’re using water. Best and easiest way to do this is note down your water meter reading number, wait patiently for an hour without using any appliances or household fixtures and then go back to your meter and see if the numbers are different. If the reading has changed, you may have a leak. From here we will be able to come and identify/locate the leak with a variety of detection processes.

We always aim to be a prompt as we possibly can as we understand that water is a precious resource. However, sometime within 7-14 days are pretty standard unless you have an emergency situation.
