FAQs
What are the most common signs of a hidden water leak in my Seymour home?
Unexplained spikes in your water bill, the sound of running water when no taps are on, damp or discoloured walls, ceilings or floors, and a persistent musty odour are all strong indicators of a concealed leak. If you notice any of these red flags, contact our emergency plumbing team immediately to minimise structural damage and mould growth.
How quickly can your emergency plumbers respond to a hidden leak in Seymour?
We provide a true 24/7 emergency service. Our on-call technicians aim to arrive at any Seymour address within 60 minutes of your call, day or night. Fast response is critical to reducing water damage, so we keep fully stocked vehicles on standby to start repairs as soon as we arrive.
What methods do you use to locate concealed leaks without tearing up my property?
Our plumbers use non-invasive leak detection technology, including acoustic listening devices, pressure testing, thermal imaging cameras and specialised pipe inspection cameras. These tools let us pinpoint the exact leak location behind walls, under slabs or in ceilings, so we only open the smallest possible area for repairs.
Can a hidden leak really cause serious damage if it’s only a small drip?
Yes. Even a slow, steady drip can waste thousands of litres of water and lead to rot, damaged plasterboard, warped flooring and toxic mould growth. Over time, the repair costs can far exceed what you would pay for prompt leak detection and repair, so it’s best to act as soon as you suspect an issue.
Will my insurance cover the cost of emergency leak detection and repairs?
Many home insurance policies cover sudden and accidental water damage, but coverage varies. We provide detailed reports, photographs and invoices that you can forward to your insurer. It’s wise to review your policy or speak with your insurance provider so you know what’s included and whether you have excess to pay.
What preventative steps can I take to avoid hidden leaks in the future?
Schedule annual plumbing inspections, keep an eye on your water meter for unusual readings, install leak-alert devices in high-risk areas, and replace ageing flexible hoses and worn tap washers. Our team can also conduct pressure tests on your plumbing system and recommend upgrades to minimise the risk of future leaks.
