What's usually behind it in Brunswick West
Brunswick West terraces often have pipes running under timber floors, where leaks rot joists before anyone sees water.
A high water bill or a damp patch with no obvious cause usually means a hidden leak in a wall, under a slab or in the yard. We use thermal cameras, acoustic listening gear and pressure tests to pin it down before opening anything up.
Many Brunswick West homes are workers' cottages and Victorian or Edwardian houses, often still on original clay sewers and galvanised water pipes.
When to call
- A water bill much higher than usual
- The water meter moving with all taps off

Leak Detection in Brunswick West: common questions
Can you find a leak without breaking walls?
Usually, yes. Thermal and acoustic tools let us pinpoint the leak, so we only open the small area needed.
Will I get a report for insurance?
Yes. We can provide a written leak report with photos for your insurer.
Can I get a rebate on my water bill?
Water authorities may offer a leak allowance once the leak is repaired. Our report helps with that claim.
How do I check for a leak myself?
Turn off every tap, note the water meter reading, wait 30 minutes without using water and check again. If it moved, call us.
