Licensed & Insured Technicians
Every leak detection job is carried out by fully licensed, insured plumbers you can trust in your home or business.
For two decades, Neranwood Plumbing & Drains has helped homeowners and business owners throughout Neranwood track down hidden water leaks before they cause lasting damage. Our licensed technicians combine acoustic listening equipment, thermal imaging and pressure testing to pinpoint leaks under slabs, behind walls and along underground mains, avoiding unnecessary digging wherever possible. We've worked on everything from older Queenslander homes with ageing copper pipework to newer builds around Neranwood, so we understand the plumbing quirks unique to this part of the Gold Coast. That local knowledge, paired with genuine hands-on experience, usually means we find the source of a leak faster than a general plumber working without the right equipment.

We locate leaks using acoustic and thermal equipment first, so only the affected section ever needs opening up.
You'll know the cost of your leak detection before we start, with no hidden surprises on the invoice.
Every repair carried out after leak detection is backed by our lifetime workmanship guarantee.
Neranwood Plumbing & Drains provides thorough leak detection across Neranwood and the greater Gold Coast, using acoustic sensors, thermal cameras and pressure testing to find hidden water leaks in walls, slabs and underground pipework. Whether it's a water meter that keeps spinning for no obvious reason, a damp patch appearing in the yard, or a water bill that's climbed without explanation, our team can locate the exact source before recommending the right fix. We work on homes, units and commercial properties throughout Neranwood, and every job comes with our upfront fixed pricing so there are no surprises once the work begins.
If you've noticed a warm patch on the floor, a musty smell in one particular room, or water pooling where it shouldn't be, don't wait for the problem to worsen. A hidden leak left untreated can undermine a slab, damage flooring, and lead to mould growth that costs far more to fix than the leak itself. Give our Neranwood team a call and we'll arrange a technician to track down the leak and explain exactly what's happening before any work goes ahead.
A hidden leak rarely announces itself. Instead, homeowners in Neranwood often notice an unusually high water bill, a water meter that keeps ticking over even when every tap is off, or a patch of lawn that stays soggy no matter how dry the weather has been. Inside the house, a leak might show up as a warm spot on tiled flooring, bubbling paint, or a musty smell that lingers no matter how much you clean.
Left unchecked, even a small leak under a slab or behind a wall can cause serious structural damage over time. Concrete slabs can crack, timber flooring can warp, and mould can spread through wall cavities long before any visible sign appears on the surface. Older copper pipework is particularly prone to pinhole leaks as it ages, while poly and PEX lines can fail at joints and fittings without warning.
The tricky part is that a plumbing leak can look identical to a stormwater or sewer issue on the surface, and guessing wrong often means digging in the wrong spot entirely. That's where professional leak detection makes the difference. Rather than opening walls or excavating the yard on a hunch, our team uses proven detection methods to confirm exactly what's leaking and where, so any repair work stays targeted and efficient.
Neranwood Plumbing & Drains takes a methodical approach to leak detection, starting with a conversation about what you've noticed and a check of your water meter, before moving to specialised equipment to narrow down the source. We aim to confirm the leak's exact location before any digging or wall removal takes place, saving you time, mess and unnecessary repair costs.
Once we've marked the leak, we'll talk you through the repair options, whether that's a patch repair, a section of pipe replacement, or a broader repipe for older copper systems. Every Neranwood job is quoted upfront, so you'll know the cost of both the detection and any recommended repair before we get started.
Leak detection often uncovers issues that go beyond a single pipe, which is why Neranwood Plumbing & Drains also offers a full range of plumbing and drainage services across Neranwood. From clearing blocked drains to repairing sewer lines, our team can handle the follow-up work once the source of your leak has been confirmed.
We keep our leak detection process straightforward, so Neranwood homeowners always know what to expect. From the first phone call to the final report, our licensed technicians explain each step before moving forward, and nothing gets opened up until we're confident we've found the source. This structured approach means less guesswork, less mess and a quicker path to a lasting repair.
We start by discussing what you've noticed and checking your water meter to confirm whether a leak is present.
