What's usually behind it in Craigieburn
In newer Craigieburn 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. For Craigieburn customers, that usually means same-day service.
Most Craigieburn homes are recent estate builds, so plumbing is modern, but early failures in flexi hoses, shower bases and hot water units are common.
When to call
- A water bill much higher than usual
- The water meter moving with all taps off

Leak Detection in Craigieburn: 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.
