Professional Water Leak Detection Across Wiley Park
Don't waste money tearing up walls and floors searching for leaks. Panther Plumbing Group uses state-of-the-art technology to locate water leaks with precision, saving you thousands in unnecessary demolition and repair costs.
Whether you're a homeowner dealing with rising water bills, a property buyer needing pre-purchase assurance, or a strata manager investigating building leaks, we provide comprehensive detection services with detailed reports suitable for insurance claims and property transactions.
Our leak detection plumbers use a combination of acoustic listening devices, thermal imaging cameras, tracer gas systems, and moisture metres to locate hidden water leaks with pinpoint accuracy. Once found, our licensed plumbers repair the leak on the spot - saving you from paying for a second callout and preventing further water damage to your property.
Acoustic Correlation Detection
Sensitive digital correlators listen for leak sounds through concrete, tiles, and walls. Pinpoints leaks to within 5-10cm accuracy.
Thermal Imaging Technology
Infrared cameras detect temperature variations as small as 0.1°C caused by escaping water.
Tracer Gas Systems
Safe hydrogen-nitrogen gas introduced into pipes escapes at leak points where sensitive detectors reveal even tiny failures.
Comprehensive Reporting
Every detection includes detailed reports with thermal images, photos, GPS coordinates, and repair recommendations.

Root Causes
What Causes Water Leaks in Wiley Park
Understanding the source helps prevent future problems
Pipe Corrosion
Metal pipes corrode over time, especially in coastal areas where salt air accelerates deterioration. Copper and galvanised steel commonly fail after 20-50 years.
High Water Pressure
Excessive pressure stresses pipes, joints, and fixtures. Sydney mains can supply 500+ kPa, well above the recommended 350 kPa maximum.
Ground Movement
Shifting soil, tree roots, nearby construction, and reactive clay soils place stress on underground pipes causing joints to separate.
Poor Installation
Incorrectly installed pipes, inadequate support, wrong materials, or substandard jointing techniques create weak points.
Temperature Fluctuations
Repeated heating and cooling causes pipes to expand and contract. Hot water pipes are particularly vulnerable.
Tree Root Intrusion
Tree roots seek moisture and can penetrate pipe joints. Once inside, roots expand causing blockages and failure.
When To Book
Common Leak Detection Scenarios
Know when professional leak detection saves money and prevents damage
Unexplained Bill Increases
Your water bill has suddenly doubled. Hidden leaks can waste thousands of litres monthly.
Pre-Purchase Inspections
Buying a property? A $400 inspection can uncover thousands in hidden repair costs.
Damp Walls & Mould
Water stains, peeling paint, or musty odours indicate moisture intrusion.
Strata Buildings
Detailed reports for body corporate meetings, insurance claims, and maintenance planning.
Insurance Claims
Insurers require proof of leak location, cause, and extent. Our reports are accepted by all major companies.
Water Metre Running
Turn off all taps and check your metre. If it's still running, water is escaping somewhere.

FAQs
Leak Detection FAQs for Wiley Park
Common questions from Wiley Park residents
Will leak detection damage my property?
No. Our leak detection methods are 95%+ non-invasive. Acoustic listening, thermal imaging, moisture metres, and tracer gas all work without drilling, cutting, or demolition. You'll often save thousands compared to traditional 'dig and search' methods.
How accurate is acoustic leak detection?
Modern digital acoustic correlators are extremely accurate, often pinpointing leaks to within 5-10cm. The technology uses two sensors placed on pipes either side of the suspected leak to calculate the exact position.
Can you detect leaks in slab-on-ground homes?
Absolutely. Slab leaks are one of our specialties. We use acoustic correlation to listen through concrete, thermal imaging to see temperature variations, and tracer gas to pinpoint exact positions.
How long does leak detection take?
Standard residential leak detection typically takes 2-3 hours including consultation, isolation testing, technology deployment, and reporting. Complex properties may take 3-5 hours.
Do I receive a written report?
Yes, every leak detection includes a comprehensive written report with thermal images, photos, leak location descriptions, GPS coordinates, moisture readings, and detailed repair recommendations.
Can you fix the leak once you find it?
Yes. Our leak detection technicians are licensed plumbers carrying equipment to repair most leaks immediately. Same-day repairs eliminate extra callout fees.
How much does leak detection cost in Wiley Park?
Standard residential leak detection costs $250-$450. Advanced slab leak detection costs $450-$750. Pre-purchase inspections cost $350-$600. All prices include technology deployment and written reports.
Is leak detection worth it for small bill increases?
Yes. Small bill increases often indicate hidden leaks wasting hundreds of litres monthly. A $350 leak detection can uncover leaks wasting $500+ annually while preventing thousands in hidden damage.
What are the signs of a hidden water leak?
Signs of a hidden water leak include unexplained increases in water bills, damp patches on walls or ceilings, musty or mouldy smells, the sound of running water when taps are off, warm spots on floors (hot water leaks), and your water metre running when no water is being used.
Can you detect leaks under concrete slabs?
Yes, slab leak detection is one of our specialities. We use acoustic correlation technology to listen through concrete, thermal imaging to detect temperature changes caused by escaping water, and tracer gas that escapes through the slab at the leak point. This allows precise location without unnecessary demolition.
How much does burst pipe repair cost in Wiley Park?
Burst pipe repair costs in Wiley Park typically range from $250-$800 depending on the pipe material, location, and accessibility. Emergency after-hours repairs may cost more. We provide fixed-price quotes before starting work and can assist with insurance claims for burst pipe damage.
Is thermal leak detection accurate?
Yes, modern thermal imaging cameras detect temperature variations as small as 0.1 degrees Celsius. This allows us to see water escaping behind walls, under floors, and in ceilings without opening anything up. Combined with acoustic detection, we achieve pinpoint accuracy in most situations.
Customer Reviews
What Our Wiley Park Customers Say
Real reviews from local residents and businesses
“Water bill doubled for no reason we could see. Panther Plumbing Group found a leak under our slab using some kind of listening device - never would have found it ourselves. Saved us from months more of water waste. Really clever gear they have.”
Karen Murphy
Leak Detection
“Damp patch appeared on the ceiling. They used thermal imaging to find the exact spot - a pinhole leak in the pipe above. Minimal damage to the ceiling to fix it. Much better than ripping the whole thing apart.”
Steven Lee
Leak Detection
“Swimming pool losing water - thought it was evaporation but it was too much. Panther Plumbing Group did a pressure test and found a tiny crack in one of the inlet pipes. Proper diagnosis saved us from guessing and wasting money.”
