Finally a plumber in Canberra who can Find Water Leaks and Fix them at the Same Time

During our extensive years of servicing the Canberra area, Fix It Right Plumbing has encountered a diverse range of water leaks, each presenting its unique challenges. Some leaks are immediately apparent, while others require the expertise, specialized equipment, and training of a professional leak detector to pinpoint accurately before any repair work can commence.

At Fix It Right Plumbing, we’ve made significant investments in state-of-the-art leak detection equipment and comprehensive training to ensure that we can uncover even the toughest hidden water leaks. What sets us apart from traditional leak detection services is that we are professional plumbers. This unique advantage means that we not only possess the latest in leak detection technology but also the experience and knowledge of plumbing systems. This combined expertise allows us to quickly identify the source of the leak, reducing costs for you, and conserving both water and time.

Furthermore, because we are a plumbing company, once we’ve successfully identified the water leak, we can proceed to fix the issue on the spot. This is in contrast to many other leak detection companies in Canberra that solely focus on locating the leak, leaving you to seek out a reputable plumber for the repair. With Fix It Right Plumbing, there’s no need for you to run around coordinating various tradespeople; we handle everything for you, ensuring a streamlined process that saves you valuable time, effort, and money. Your peace of mind and the efficient resolution of your water leak issues are our top priorities.

Common Leak Detection Issues in Canberra

Hidden Pipe Leaks

Leaks behind walls or under floors in Canberra homes often go unnoticed until water damage becomes visible. Signs include damp patches, peeling paint, musty smells, or unexplained increases in your water bill.

Slab Leaks

Pipes running beneath concrete slabs can develop leaks due to soil movement, corrosion, or poor installation. These leaks are difficult to detect without specialised equipment and can cause foundation damage.

Underground Water Leaks

Underground supply pipes between the water meter and your Canberra home can leak due to age, ground movement, or tree root damage. Wet patches in the yard or a spinning water meter are common indicators.

Expert Insight

"In Canberra, we use a combination of acoustic listening devices, thermal imaging, and tracer gas to locate hidden leaks with pinpoint accuracy. This means we can find and fix the leak with minimal disruption to your home — no unnecessary holes in walls or digging up gardens." — Fix It Right Plumbing Team, Canberra
