It’s so easy to think of a burst water pipe as a gushing torrent of water flooding a room. There’s actually a silver lining to that — at least we’ll know where the damage is. The truth is that most burst pipes occur in areas that are hard to see or access, like under your house or garden, or within a wall.
Burst pipes are a common occurrence in Melbourne – with many old homes and buildings still with original plumbing, and new builds with more complex plumbing systems, burst pipes can happen all too easily.

You can also check your water meter if you suspect a leak or burst pipe. Take note of its reading, avoid using water for an hour, and recheck the reading. If you have a leak, your water meter will give you a higher reading.
Many homes and units built in the last 15 years do not have copper pipes for hot and cold water supply. Instead of copper, modern pipes are made of plastic polybutylene, making them harder to locate.
We use innovative technology to trace the heat of the hot water running through the pipes, ensuring we pinpoint the exact location of the leak.
