BURST PIPES & WATER LEAKS

Leaking water costs money and wastes wate

A major burst pipe with gushing water is a common enough plumbing problem. The solution is to stop the water flow and repair or replace the section of burst pipe. A more complicated plumbing problem occurs when the location of the water leak is less obvious.

Unidentified, buried or enclosed pipe leaks can cause extensive property damage and high costs in water usage. Leaks are usually found to be underground, under concrete and within building structures. Particularly in apartment buildings, the location of the leak may be difficult to determine with the eventual escaping water appearing far away from the cause.

We have state-of-the-art technology to locate leaks which reduce the guess work of sourcing leaks and helps to reduce the cost of repairs by establishing more clearly where the leak is rather than by extensive excavation or demolition.

This minimises damage repairing and replacing tiles, concrete paths and driveways. So now there's no need to have a plumber cut a hole in a tiled wall to locate a water leak only to find he is in the wrong place and has to start over again causing more damage.
