What we see

Common problems we're called for

Burst flexi hoses

They fail without warning, usually 5–10 years in. If yours are original and the house is over a decade old, replacement is cheap insurance.

Split copper or poly pipes

Age, movement, frost on exposed runs and dodgy old joins — we repair properly with press-fit or soldered copper, not tape and hope.

Hidden leaks

High bills or damp patches with no obvious cause. We isolate, test and trace before anything gets opened up.

Leaking property mains

The run from the meter to the house — older galv and poly mains fail with age; renewal restores pressure at the same time.

How we work

Straight answers, done properly

Burst braided flexi hoses under sinks and vanities are the single biggest cause of home water damage in Australia — the stainless braid frays, the rubber lets go, and a laundry becomes a swimming pool in minutes. We repair the damage and, more importantly, replace ageing flexis through the house before the next one goes.

Not every leak announces itself. Unexplained water bills, damp patches, the sound of running water with everything off — we trace and repair hidden leaks in walls, under slabs and along property mains, with clear pricing agreed before repair work starts.

Questions

Burst Pipes & Water Leaks — FAQs

What should I do the moment a pipe bursts?
Turn the water off at the meter (usually at the front boundary), open a low tap to drain pressure, kill power to any soaked areas, and call us on 0413 947 906. Photos help your insurance claim.
Will insurance cover it?
Sudden burst damage is commonly covered — the resulting damage more so than the worn part itself. We document what failed and provide the paperwork insurers ask for.
How do I prevent the classic flexi hose flood?
Replace flexis roughly every 5–10 years, use quality hoses, and consider isolating valves or turning water off when leaving a holiday home empty — something we fit all the time down here.
