Suspect a Leak?

Speak With Warner's Leak Detection Specialists Today

A hidden leak rarely announces itself loudly. It might show up as a slightly higher water bill, a damp patch on the lawn, or a musty smell in a room that shouldn't be humid. At Warner Plumbing & Drains, we specialise in tracking down these hard-to-find leaks across Warner and the wider Moreton Bay region using acoustic listening equipment, thermal cameras and pressure testing. Our approach is thorough and methodical, so you get a definitive answer rather than a guess.

If you've noticed an unexplained spike in water usage, a spinning meter with everything turned off, or damp walls and ceilings, don't wait for the problem to worsen. Give our team a call and we'll arrange a technician to assess your property, locate the leak with precision, and explain your repair options in plain language. With upfront fixed pricing and our Tidy Tradie guarantee, you'll know exactly what to expect before any work begins.

Facing an Issue?

Could You Have a Hidden Water Leak?

Many leaks develop slowly and out of sight, hiding beneath concrete slabs, inside wall cavities or underground between the meter and the house. By the time you notice a wet patch, stained ceiling or lifting floorboards, the leak may have been running for weeks. Left unchecked, this kind of damage can lead to mould growth, warped flooring and, in the worst cases, structural issues.

Other warning signs are less obvious but just as telling. An unusually high water bill, a water meter that keeps ticking over when every tap is off, or a warm patch on an otherwise cool floor can all point to a leak somewhere in your plumbing. Older copper pipework is particularly prone to pinhole leaks, while poly and PVC lines can develop cracks at joins or fittings over time.

Knowing there's a problem is one thing, finding the exact source without pulling up your entire yard or bathroom is another. That's where professional leak detection makes all the difference.

    Our Solution

    How Warner Plumbing & Drains Pinpoints Leaks Across Warner

    Rather than relying on guesswork, Warner Plumbing & Drains uses a combination of proven, non-destructive techniques to locate the exact position of a leak before any repair work begins. This means less mess, less disruption and a faster path to a lasting fix.

    • Acoustic leak detection using ground microphones and correlators to listen for escaping water
    • Thermal imaging to trace hot and cold water trails through walls, ceilings and slabs
    • Nitrogen and pressure testing to isolate which section of pipe is losing pressure
    • Tracer gas methods for plastic pipe or noisy sites where acoustic testing is inconclusive
    • Meter-to-house tracing to confirm whether a spinning meter points to a mains leak

    Once we've marked the exact location, we'll walk you through the findings and the repair options available, whether that's a straightforward patch repair, a section replacement or trenchless pipe restoration. You'll always know the fixed price before we start, and every repair is covered by our lifetime workmanship guarantee.

      Frequently Asked Questions

      Leak Detection Questions Warner Locals Ask

      Leak detection can feel like a mystery if you've never needed it before. Below, our experienced team answers some of the questions we hear most often from Warner homeowners and business owners.

      We rely on non-invasive methods wherever possible, including acoustic listening equipment that picks up the sound of pressurised water escaping underground, and thermal imaging cameras that trace temperature changes caused by hot or cold water moving through walls and slabs. These tools allow us to narrow down the leak's location to a small, specific area before any opening up takes place, so repairs stay targeted rather than exploratory.
      Look out for an unexplained rise in your water bill, a water meter that keeps spinning even when every tap and appliance is switched off, damp or musty smelling patches on walls, ceilings or carpet, and unusually soft or wet areas in the lawn or driveway. Warm patches on flooring can also indicate a hot water leak running beneath a slab. If you notice any of these signs, it's worth having a professional take a closer look.
      Each system behaves differently and leaves different clues. A water supply leak typically shows up as a spinning meter or a wet patch near a pressurised line, while sewer seepage often comes with an unpleasant odour and slower drainage. Stormwater issues tend to appear after rain and follow surface contours. Our team assesses these signs carefully so we can direct the right specialist to the right problem, rather than starting with the wrong assumption.
      This is one of the most common reasons people call us. The leak may be running underground between the meter and the house, hidden beneath a concrete slab, or occurring inside a wall cavity behind a shower or bathroom fitting. We use isolation testing alongside our detection equipment to narrow down which section of your plumbing is responsible, even when there's no visible sign on the surface.
      Yes, we can supply a written report outlining where the leak was found, how it was located, and photographic evidence to support your claim. Insurers and restoration companies generally look for clear, professional documentation before approving repair work, and our reports are prepared with that process in mind.
      Absolutely. Once we've pinpointed the source, we'll talk you through the most suitable repair option, whether that's a straightforward patch repair, replacing a section of pipe, or a more permanent solution such as trenchless pipe restoration. There's no need to bring in a separate contractor, our team handles the entire process from detection through to a lasting repair.
