Water rarely appears where it enters. A stain on your ceiling might come from a shower two metres away, a balcony door sill or a roof penetration. Guessing leads to unnecessary demolition and leaks that keep coming back.
Our leak detection service uses methodical testing and moisture measurement to find the true source, so the repair is targeted and effective.
Signs you need leak detection & repair
- Ceiling stains with no obvious cause
- Leaks that only appear in certain weather
- Damp walls or skirting next to wet areas
- Rising water bills (plumbing leak suspected)
- Mould returning after cleaning
- Previous repairs that didn't work
Our leak detection methods
- Moisture mapping — non-invasive meters to trace the spread of moisture in walls, floors and ceilings
- Isolated water testing — testing one element at a time (shower, screen, waste, door, window) to pinpoint the source
- Flood testing — for balconies, showers and roof areas
- Visual inspection — of sealants, grout, flashings, outlets and penetrations
When it's a plumbing leak
If testing points to a pressurised water pipe or drain, we will let you know and recommend engaging a licensed plumber. Once the plumbing is fixed, we can repair the waterproofing and finishes.
From detection to repair
Once the source is confirmed, we provide a clear quote for the repair — whether that is a new shower membrane, balcony threshold detail, roof penetration seal or window perimeter sealant.
