Signs of a Water Leak

Many people assume that water leaks are very obvious and easy to spot, but this isn't always the case. Some leaks, particularly leaks that emerge in ceilings and walls, can cause steady damage to your property before you even notice any dampness. Signs of water leaks in your property include damp patches on ceilings and walls, mould growth, and unexplained dripping sounds when no taps are running.


If you notice any of these signs on your property, it's important to call professionals to detect and repair a water leak before it causes extensive damage.

Why is Leak Detection important?

If you suspect there's a leak in your property, it's important to identify and repair the leak as soon as possible. When left to worsen, leaks can cause extensive water damage to your home, compromising the stability of floors and walls, damaging electrical goods, and causing damp and mould growth. If you notice a leak in one of your taps or pipes and don't have it repaired as soon as you can, it can cost you a lot more, in the long run, to repair the original leak and any damage later caused by the leak.


At Emerald Beach Plumbing Service, we can identify and repair leaks in pipes and plumbing quickly and effectively, minimising any potential damage to your home and ensuring that your leak is fixed properly, for the long term.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are some common signs of a leak?

Leaks can be a major inconvenience and cause a lot of damage if left unchecked. Fortunately, there are some common signs that might indicate you have a leak in your home. One of the most obvious is water pooling in an area where it shouldn’t be. This could be in your yard, on your floor, or even in your ceiling. If you’re noticing unexplained puddles and water spots, you may have a leak.


Other signs include an unexplained increase in your water bill, a decrease in water pressure, or the sound of running water when no one is using it. You may also be able to smell a musty odour or see mould growing near an affected area. If you notice any of these signs, it’s important to contact a plumber as soon as possible.

What are the most common causes of leaks?

The most common causes of leaks are faulty pipes, worn-out fixtures, and gaps between pipes. Faults and breaks in pipes can occur due to corrosion, freezing temperatures, and high water pressure. Worn-out fixtures can cause leaks in sinks, showers, and toilets. Gaps between pipes can be due to bad sealing or shifting of the pipes over time.

What is the best way to prevent leaks?

The best way to prevent leaks is to regularly inspect your pipes and fixtures for any signs of wear or damage. You should also check for any gaps between pipes or fittings. If you do find issues, it’s important to have it repaired immediately to avoid further damage. Calling a professional is the best way to make sure that you don’t face any leaks in the future.

How do plumbers locate and repair leaks in pipes?

Plumbers use several techniques to locate and repair leaks in pipes. The most common technique is to use a camera to inspect the pipes for any signs of damage or corrosion. Plumbers can also use specialised leak detectors to pinpoint the exact location of the leak. Once the location of the leak is determined, the plumber can then repair the pipe or replace it if necessary.

How much does it cost to have a leak detected?

The cost of having a leak detected and repaired will depend on the type of leak and the amount of work required. Generally, the cost of having a leak detected and repaired can range anywhere from $100 to $500. If the leak is minor and requires minimal repairs, it will obviously cost less than a more serious leak that may have also caused structural damage.


It’s best to consult with a professional to determine the exact cost of having a leak detected and repaired. For a more accurate idea of how much your job will cost, make sure to get in touch with us at Emerald Beach Plumbing. Our friendly team would be happy to give you more advice.
