Find Hidden Leaks Before Damage

A hidden water leak can quietly increase bills, damage walls and floors, and create ongoing moisture problems around your property. At On Call Plumbing Solutions, our leak detection service accurately locates suspected plumbing leaks, reducing unnecessary disruption and guesswork. Whether you have noticed damp patches, unexplained water usage, reduced pressure or unusual sounds, we can investigate the cause and recommend an appropriate solution. Our practical approach helps homeowners and businesses address leaks early, protect their property, and quickly restore confidence in their plumbing system.
  • Unexpected Water Bills: A sudden increase in water usage without changes in daily habits could indicate a concealed leak somewhere within your plumbing system.
  • Damp Walls or Floors: Unexplained moisture, staining, or soft areas around walls and flooring may suggest that water is escaping from nearby concealed plumbing.
  • Reduced Water Pressure: Noticeably weaker water pressure across taps or showers can sometimes signal leaking pipework that requires professional investigation and appropriate repairs promptly.
  • Unusual Plumbing Sounds: Hearing dripping, hissing or running water when fixtures are switched off may indicate a hidden leak requiring further professional assessment immediately.
  • Mould and Mustiness: Persistent musty smells or unexpected mould growth can develop where concealed water leaks create ongoing damp conditions behind surfaces inside your property.
  • Water Meter Movement: If your water meter continues moving while fixtures and appliances are off, an undetected plumbing leak could be responsible somewhere within the property.
