Licensed & Insured Technicians
Every leak detection job is carried out by fully licensed, insured plumbers you can trust.
For two decades, Serviceton Plumbing & Drains has helped homeowners and business owners across Serviceton and greater Ipswich track down hidden water leaks before they cause serious damage. Our technicians use acoustic listening equipment, thermal imaging and non-invasive tracer methods to pinpoint leaks under slabs, behind walls and along underground mains without unnecessary digging. We understand the older copper and poly plumbing common throughout Ipswich homes, along with the concrete slab construction found in many newer builds. That local knowledge, paired with genuine leak detection experience, means we find the source of the problem quickly and explain exactly what needs fixing.
Every leak detection job is carried out by fully licensed, insured plumbers you can trust.
Homeowners across Serviceton rely on us for honest, accurate leak location and repair advice.
Every repair following a leak detection is backed by our lifetime workmanship guarantee.
Our team has spent two decades refining acoustic and thermal leak detection techniques.
Serviceton Plumbing & Drains provides thorough water leak detection for homes and businesses throughout Serviceton and the wider Ipswich region. We locate leaking mains, pinpoint pitted copper pipes, trace cavity pipe leaks behind tiled walls and identify the cause of unexplained high water bills. Every inspection uses non-invasive acoustic and thermal equipment first, so we open up only where the evidence points and avoid unnecessary demolition. Our fixed, upfront pricing means you know the cost before any work begins, and our Tidy Tradie guarantee means your property is left as clean as we found it.
If your water meter keeps spinning with no obvious cause, if you have noticed a damp patch on the ceiling or a soggy corner of the lawn, or if your hot water system seems to be losing pressure, do not wait for the problem to worsen. A hidden leak left undetected can rot timber framing, undermine slabs and drive up your water bill month after month.

Not every leak announces itself with a burst pipe or a puddle on the floor. Many of the leaks we locate in Serviceton are hidden under concrete slabs, inside wall cavities or beneath timber flooring, and they often show up first as an unusually high water bill or a water meter that keeps turning even when every tap in the house is off.
Other warning signs include a warm patch on an otherwise cool tiled floor, a musty smell in a particular room, mould creeping along a skirting board, or a section of lawn that stays green and boggy no matter the weather. A leaking shower waterproofing membrane or a failed pan connector under a toilet can quietly damage joinery and flooring long before any staining becomes visible on the surface.
Left undetected, these issues rarely stay small. What starts as a pinhole leak in an old copper pipe can eventually undermine a slab, damage cabinetry or lead to a much larger repair bill, so it pays to have a suspected leak checked early by an experienced plumber rather than waiting to see if it gets worse.
Serviceton Plumbing & Drains combines proven acoustic leak detection with thermal imaging and, where needed, non-invasive tracer methods to locate the exact source of a leak before any work begins. This approach lets us confirm whether a spinning meter is a mains leak, a fitting failure or simply irrigation running longer than expected, and it means we open up only the section of pipe, wall or slab that actually needs attention.
Once the leak is marked, our plumbers can carry out the repair on the spot, whether that is a copper pinhole patch, a section of pipe relining, or a full written report for your insurer or strata manager. Serviceton homeowners get a clear explanation of what we found, why it happened, and the most practical way to fix it for good.
Leak detection often uncovers other issues within the plumbing system, so our team offers a full range of related services to get your property back in order. From CCTV drain inspections to full pipe relining, we can handle the follow-up work without bringing in another contractor.
We follow a consistent, methodical process on every leak detection job so nothing is left to chance. This structured approach means less disruption to your property, a clearer explanation of the problem and a repair plan you can trust, rather than random digging or guesswork.
We start with a full assessment of your water usage, pressure and plumbing history to narrow down the likely leak area.
Acoustic, thermal and tracer equipment is used to mark the exact position of the leak before anything is opened up.
Once located, we complete the repair or provide a written report detailing the leak source, cause and recommended fix.
