Our licensed plumbers use acoustic listening devices, thermal imaging and non-invasive tracer methods to pinpoint a leak's exact location before any digging or demolition begins. Whether it's a spinning water meter, a damp patch on the lawn or an unexplained high water bill, we've seen it before and know how to get to the bottom of it. Local property owners trust us because we explain what we find, quote a fixed price upfront, and leave the site as tidy as we found it.
You'll know the cost of your leak detection before we start, with no hidden surprises on the invoice.
We treat your home with respect and leave your property as clean as when we arrived.

Our plumbers carry two decades of hands-on experience finding leaks that other trades miss.
Avoca Vale Plumbing & Drains provides professional leak detection across Avoca Vale and the broader Somerset region, using acoustic correlators, thermal cameras and pressure testing to find hidden water leaks without unnecessary digging or demolition. From under-slab leaks to pinhole copper pipes hiding inside older hot water loops, our team locates the source quickly so repairs can often begin the same visit. We work on homes, sheds, rural properties and small businesses throughout the local area, so no job is too remote or too tricky.
If your water bill has jumped without explanation, you've noticed a damp patch appearing in the yard, or your water meter keeps spinning even with every tap turned off, don't wait for the problem to get worse. Pick up the phone and speak with our friendly team, and we'll arrange a time to send a qualified leak detection plumber to your Avoca Vale property. Early detection often means a smaller repair, less water wasted and less damage to your home or garden.
A hidden leak rarely announces itself. Instead it shows up as a higher than usual water bill, a soft or spongy patch in the lawn, a musty smell in a particular room, or tiles and skirting boards that feel warm underfoot. Left unchecked, a slab leak or an in-wall pipe leak can undermine flooring, damage timber framing and encourage mould growth long before it's ever visible.
Older copper pipework is particularly prone to pinhole leaks caused by pitting inside the hot water line, while ageing poly and galvanised pipes can fail at joints buried under the slab or lawn. A leaking stop cock, isolation valve or shower waterproofing membrane can also send water travelling well away from where it actually escapes, which is why guesswork and random jackhammering rarely solve the problem.
The good news is that most leaks can be found using non-invasive methods long before they cause structural damage. Acoustic listening equipment, thermal cameras and careful isolation testing let our plumbers narrow down the exact location of the leak, so only the section of pipe that's actually failed needs to be opened up.
Avoca Vale Plumbing & Drains combines proven leak detection technology with straightforward, honest advice, so you know exactly what's happening under your slab or behind your walls before any work begins. Our approach is built to find the leak accurately the first time, saving you unnecessary excavation and repair costs.
Once we've marked the leak, our plumbers can carry out the repair on the spot, whether that's a patch repair, a section of copper replacement, or trenchless pipe relining under the slab. Avoca Vale property owners get a clear explanation of the cause, the fix and the cost before we start, backed by our lifetime workmanship guarantee.
