Leaks & high water bills
Water bill too high? You could be paying for a leak you can’t see
Most leaks stay hidden. A running toilet, a cracked pipe under the slab or a failing tap connection can waste thousands of litres before you notice. We find the source and fix it with as little mess as possible.

15 to 30 minutes without using any water.

If the reading has moved, water is escaping somewhere. Give us a call.

Common questions
Why is my water pressure low?
It could be a leak, a faulty pressure-limiting valve, a partly closed stop tap or corroded pipes. We test the pressure at the meter and work back from there.
Will you have to dig up my floor?
Not usually. We pinpoint the leak first so any access is as small as possible.
