Avg. rating of 7 reviewsFor 20 years, Springfield Plumbing & Drains has helped homeowners and business owners across Springfield and greater Brisbane track down hidden water leaks before they cause serious damage. Our licensed plumbers use acoustic listening devices, thermal imaging and non-invasive tracer methods to pinpoint leaks under slabs, behind walls and along underground mains without unnecessary digging or demolition. We've located everything from pitted copper pinholes in older hot water systems to spinning water meters pointing to a leak nobody could see. That experience means we know where to look first, saving you time, mess and money.
Every leak detection job is carried out by fully licensed, qualified plumbers you can trust.
We locate leaks using acoustic, thermal and tracer technology, keeping demolition to a minimum.
You'll know the cost before we start, with no hidden fees or surprise call-out charges.
Our plumbers know Springfield's homes and plumbing systems inside and out.
Whether it's a spinning water meter, a damp patch spreading across the lawn, or a musty smell coming from behind a wall, Springfield Plumbing & Drains has the tools and training to find the source fast. We offer acoustic leak detection, thermal camera scanning and meter-to-house main tracing, along with written leak detection reports that insurers and restoration companies can act on. Our team services homes and businesses throughout Springfield and greater Brisbane, including surrounding pockets of the growth corridor.
If you've noticed an unexplained rise in your water bill, a wet patch that never dries out, or ceiling staining that keeps returning, don't leave the problem to get worse. Call us and one of our leak detection plumbers will book a time to get to the bottom of it, with a fixed price agreed before any work begins.
Not every leak announces itself with a burst pipe or a flooded floor. Many of the leaks we find in Springfield homes are quiet ones: a hot water copper pipe pitted with pinholes, a shower mixer weeping inside a cavity wall, or a poly pipe cracking slowly under a concrete slab. Left alone, these hidden leaks can lift tiles, rot timber flooring, grow mould behind plasterboard and push your water bill higher every quarter.
Other signs are easier to spot but harder to explain: a soggy patch on the lawn that won't dry out, a water meter that keeps spinning even when every tap is off, or a damp ceiling with no obvious roof leak above it. Sewer seepage and stormwater issues can look similar to a mains water leak from the surface, which is why an accurate diagnosis matters before anyone starts digging.
Springfield Plumbing & Drains uses proven leak detection methods to locate the exact source of a problem first, keeping guesswork and unnecessary demolition to a minimum. Our approach typically includes:
Once the leak is marked, we can carry out the repair on the spot, whether that's a section of copper replacement, an under-slab reline, or a straightforward fitting repair, so you're not left waiting on a second visit.
Leak detection often uncovers issues that go beyond a single pipe, so Springfield Plumbing & Drains offers a full range of plumbing and drainage services to match. Here's how else we can help once your leak has been found and fixed.
We follow a clear, methodical process on every leak detection job, so you understand what's happening and why.
