What's usually behind it in Docklands
In Docklands apartments, a leak often shows up in the unit below. We trace it to the source so the right owner is responsible.
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.
Docklands buildings are newer, but pressure valves, hot water plant and floor wastes in high-rise towers still need regular attention.
When to call
- A water bill much higher than usual
- The water meter moving with all taps off
- Damp patches, bubbling paint or mould
- The sound of running water when nothing is on
- Warm spots on the floor (a hot water leak)

Leak Detection in Docklands: 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.
