We are a local family owned business that operates on the Sunshine Coast, Australia. We have over 25 years of combined experience and we specialise in leak detection and repair.
If you have signs of leaks that may include excess water or a high water bill, get in touch.
We pride ourselves in providing a service of excellence to our clients, making sure their problem is our priority.
Based Sunshine Coast, our goal is to save the property owner money by quickly tracing leaks, eliminating unnecessary digging and damage to property. By using specialised leak detection equipment we will accurately determine the location of the leak. This allows us to ensure that only the localised area is opened up in order to repair that leak.
In addition to our Sunshine Coast based leak detection service, we also specialise in:
Leak detection involves the use of hi-tech non-invasive equipment to pinpoint your leak. There is no damage to your property, i.e. no drilling, excavation, dirt or disruption.
The Sunshine Coast team will record all activity, along with photographs where appropriate.
Upon detection of the leak we will discuss with you how best it can be fixed. The majority of fixes can be done same day at a standard cost, including pipes buried in concrete screed. A complex leak may need to be capped on the day and would therefore require a return visit which we will arrange with you at an agreed cost.
Once the leak has been fixed it will be tested. When finished, we will complete a report.
The report will be reviewed before releasing it to you for your approval.
If you have suffered water damage from the leak, we will discuss next steps with you. Our team based in Sunshine Coast includes water damage specialists who can prepare detailed schedules of repair work and cost estimates.

We could not be more delighted by the company Water Leak Detective Leak Detection for the work they have done on our property. Our water bills in the past have increased significantly suspecting, well you guessed it; LEAKING. The team of Steven and Quentin did a very thorough investigation regarding our concerns. With their high tech equipments they were able to identify the source which we have been suspecting all along. The location was dug out with precision and repaired. The hole was backfilled so neatly you could not tell. That said we hope not to get any surprises with our water bills in the future. With the professionalism and service that I have experienced with the company, Steven and Quentin in particular I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone in need of the same services.
