What's usually behind it in Cobblebank
In newer Cobblebank homes, leaks often come from shower bases, push-fit joints and flexible hoses that failed early. We find them without ripping out tiles.
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.
Cobblebank is one of Melbourne's newer growth areas, with most homes built in the last 20 years. Jobs here are more often hot water, gas appliances, blocked fixtures and builder defects than worn-out pipes.
When to call
- A water bill much higher than usual

Leak Detection in Cobblebank: 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.
