Common Types of Leaks We Detect in Perth
Water leaks can occur anywhere in your plumbing system. Here are the most common types our Perth plumbers detect and repair:
1. Pipe Leaks: Caused by corrosion, high water pressure, physical damage or poor installation. These leaks often hide behind walls or beneath floors. Our acoustic sensors detect the exact location without opening up your walls unnecessarily.
2. Slab Leaks: Pipes under concrete foundations can crack or corrode over time. Signs include damp patches on floors, unexplained hot spots, or rising Water Corporation bills. We use thermal imaging and acoustic detection to locate slab leaks precisely, minimising the amount of concrete that needs to be removed.
3. Roof and ceiling leaks: Damaged roofing materials, poor flashing or blocked gutters can cause water to track into ceilings and walls. Our plumbers identify the exact entry point.
4. Bathroom and Kitchen Leaks:Worn seals, corroded pipes and faulty faucets are common causes. These can cause extensive cabinet and flooring damage if left untreated.
5. Irrigation and outdoor leaks: Cracked pipes, damaged sprinkler heads or faulty valves waste large volumes of water and can damage your landscaping.
Signs You May Have a Hidden Water Leak
Unexplained rises in your Water Corporation bill, damp patches on walls or ceilings, musty odours, low water pressure, the sound of running water when all taps are off these are all common signs of a hidden leak. Our plumbers use thermal imaging cameras and acoustic listening devices to pinpoint leaks behind walls, under floors and under concrete slabs without breaking your property.
Many leaks are not immediately visible. Watch for these warning signs:
- Your Water Corporation bill has increased without explanation
- You can hear running water when all taps and appliances are turned off
- There are damp patches, staining or bubbling paint on walls or ceilings
- You notice musty or mildew odours in rooms without obvious moisture
- Water pressure at taps has dropped without a known cause
- Warm or soft spots on your concrete floor may indicate a hot water slab leak
If you notice any of these signs call Same Day Trades immediately on 1300 632 094. Early detection prevents structural damage, mould growth and escalating repair costs.
The Importance of Early Leak Detection
Every day a leak goes undetected it compounds the damage. Water weakens structural timbers, corrodes metal fittings and saturates insulation. Mould can begin growing within 24 to 48 hours of sustained moisture, posing health risks particularly for people with respiratory conditions. Prolonged leaks under slabs can undermine foundations and cause serious structural movement that is extremely expensive to fix.
Early leak detection keeps repair costs manageable and protects your property value. Buyers and insurers increasingly inspect for signs of water damage and mould, so prompt attention to leaks protects your investment.

Our process is designed to be fast, thorough and non-invasive. We begin with a full inspection of the suspected area and check your water meter to confirm whether a leak is active. We then deploy our thermal imaging cameras and acoustic listening devices to trace the leak to its exact location.
