Avg. rating of 7 reviewsFor two decades, Bunya Plumbing & Drains has helped homeowners and business owners across Bunya track down hidden water leaks before they turn into costly damage. Our plumbers combine acoustic listening equipment, thermal imaging and pressure testing to pinpoint the exact source of a leak, whether it's hiding under a concrete slab, inside a wall cavity or along the main line running from the meter. We've handled everything from unexplained high water bills to slow leaks beneath timber floors in older Moreton Bay homes, so we understand the plumbing quirks that come with the mix of established and newer properties in the area. This experience means we rarely have to guess, we locate the leak accurately from the outset, saving you from unnecessary digging or demolition.
Every leak detection job is carried out by qualified, licensed plumbers you can trust.
We locate leaks using acoustic and thermal equipment, avoiding unnecessary damage to walls, floors and yards.
Any repair work following a leak detection is backed by our lifetime workmanship guarantee.
Our team understands the common plumbing issues found in Bunya and the wider Moreton Bay area.
A hidden leak rarely announces itself with a burst pipe and a flooded floor. More often, it shows up as a damp patch on the lawn, a musty smell in a spare room, or a water bill that climbs for no obvious reason. In Bunya and across Moreton Bay, Bunya Plumbing & Drains offers upfront fixed pricing on leak detection, so you know the cost before we start and there are no surprises once the job is finished.
If you've noticed your water meter spinning when every tap is off, damp patches appearing on walls or ceilings, or a section of yard that stays soggy no matter the weather, it's worth having it checked sooner rather than later. Left alone, an undetected leak can lead to mould, warped flooring and wasted water. Reach out to our Bunya team and we'll arrange a plumber to locate the source and explain your options in plain language.
Not every leak is obvious. A pinhole in an ageing copper pipe, a failed shower waterproofing membrane or a cracked poly line under the slab can leak for months before anyone notices, often showing up first as a higher than usual water bill or a patch of lifting flooring.
Left unchecked, these small leaks can turn into bigger problems: warped floorboards, mould growing inside wall cavities, or a section of driveway that slowly undermines itself from water pooling underneath. Some leaks are also easy to mistake for something else, a wet patch near the boundary might be stormwater, sewer seepage or a genuine mains leak, and getting that wrong means calling the wrong tradesperson.
Whether it's a hot water copper pipe pitting away inside a wall, a cracked pan connector under the toilet, or a leaking stop cock near the meter box, identifying the exact cause early keeps repair costs and disruption to a minimum.
Rather than guessing where a leak might be, Bunya Plumbing & Drains follows a methodical approach that narrows down the source before any digging or cutting begins. Our Bunya plumbers combine several detection methods depending on the pipe material, its location and the symptoms you've described.
Once we've marked the exact location, we'll talk you through what's involved in the repair, whether that's a simple patch, a section of pipe replacement, or trenchless pipe relining under the slab, so you're never left guessing what happens next.
Finding the leak is only half the job. Depending on what we uncover, Bunya Plumbing & Drains can also handle the repair and any related drainage work needed to get your plumbing back to normal.
We've refined our leak detection process over many years in the field, and it's designed to get to the source of the problem with as little disruption as possible. Rather than opening up walls or breaking concrete on a hunch, we gather evidence first and only cut where the equipment tells us to. This keeps repair costs down and means your home or business stays as intact as possible throughout the job.
We start by talking through what you've noticed, whether it's a high water bill, damp patch or musty smell.
Using acoustic, thermal or tracer gas equipment, we pinpoint the exact location before any digging begins.
Once marked, we repair the affected pipe or fitting and confirm the leak has been fully resolved.
