Frequently Asked Questions

Firstly, check your water meter to determine whether the leak is fast or slow. Start by turning off all fixtures, including the dishwasher and washing machine. Then take note of the meter—if it continues moving, you have a fast leak. If you come back and check in 2 hours and the number has changed, the leak is slow. From there, you have a couple of options. One is to put some food colour into your toilet tank to see if it leaks into the bowl. Slow leaks in toilets are some of the most common ways water is wasted in Darwin households.

This depends entirely on the size of the job, the kind of pipes you are using and the severity of the damage. However, on average, pipe relining can range from as low as $75 to $250 per foot, all the way to $500 and more. The first thing that needs to be done is determining the extent of the job and for that you will need a fully licensed plumbing team.

In Australia, the average price range for fixing a burst pipe is $280 to $1,200. This is quite a large range due to differing levels of severity associated with burst pipe issues. Our team will assess your property, find the cause of the issue and promptly repair it for your convenience. If, however, you are not sure how to proceed—book a free quote today.

Water leaks in homes can result from various factors, including ageing plumbing systems, extreme weather conditions and improper installation. Over time, pipes may corrode, leading to small cracks or holes that allow water to escape. Additionally, high humidity can exacerbate these issues, eventually resulting in leaking water from pipes. Poorly installed or maintained plumbing fixtures, such as taps and toilets, can also contribute to leaks. Contact us for professional leak detection in Darwin.

A sudden spike in your water bill could indicate a hidden water leak on your property. Start by checking visible plumbing fixtures and appliances for any signs of leaks, such as dripping taps, running toilets or damp spots on walls and floors. If you can’t find water leaking from these sources, the issue may lie within your underground pipes or in areas that are not easily accessible. Contact professionals immediately to conduct a thorough inspection. They use water leak detectors to address any potential leaks before they cause further damage or higher costs.

Preventing water leaks in your home involves a combination of regular maintenance and proactive measures. Get old or damaged pipes and fixtures replaced before they fail. Additionally, be mindful of the water pressure in your home. Excessively high pressure can strain pipes and increase the risk of leaks. Scheduling regular professional inspections can help you avoid costly repairs in the long run. Contact us for water leak detection in Darwin.
