Usually, the first sign of a burst pipe includes: water dripping or seeping, soft or muddy areas even though it hasn't rained. Unexplained wet patches in or around slabs or paved areas. Rising damp or sometimes there are signs on the neighbouring property.
Do The Test: Turn off the water and make sure no one uses any taps or flushes the toilets. Take a photo from your water meter, wait 10 minutes, and compare. If the reading has changed, you have a water leak.
-
Burst pipes occur when an underground water supply pipes break or leak, either alongside its length or elbows and other fittings. Leaks and breaks can occur because of invasive roots, shifting ground, or freezing or corroding pipes.
Building standards have also changed over the years with plumbing lines placed in underground conduit and therefore know how and specialist tools are required in these challenging environments.

Hidden wall and floor leaks are usually in plumbing lines and fixtures that are inaccessible unless accessed invasively. Non compliant roof plumbing, failed waterproofing, faulty or incorrectly installed doors, windows and wall cladding is also a major problem. Hidden water leaks in underfloor slabs and walls can be very costly if not found immediately. Apart from water loss, the damage it will cause to concrete, timber flooring, wall framing, plaster, skirting boards, etc. is extensive.
How to check for leaks using your water meter
Turn off all taps and isolate water supply to toilets, dishwasher, washing machine, hot water service and irrigation .
Locate your water meter. It's usually at the front of your property.
Write down or take a picture of the numbers on the water meter dials. On most meters, the last two dials are red.
Don’t use any water for the one hour.
Check if the last two numbers on the dial have changed. If they do, you have water a leak. The greater the change, the bigger the potential leak.

Health & Safety

Mould & Mildew
Mould and mildew are two of the most dangerous hazards than can be the result of a hidden water leak. They can cause serious harm to your health. When inhaled, airborne mould spores can trigger allergic reactions, asthma attacks and can even cause respiratory infections, particularly in vulnerable members, such as the young, elderly or those with pre-existing health conditions. When left untreated, mould can grow, spread and it can be very difficult to remove.
-
Contaminated Water
Another potential health risk of a leaking water pipe is the chance that your main water supply of your home or business can become contaminated. If your water pipes are damaged, this can result in a change in the velocity and water pressure within, which can cause the pipe to take in water externally. This external water can contaminate the quality of your drinking water and cause harm to your health when consumed.
-
Fire Hazard
One of the most serious dangers that a hidden water leak can lead to is a fire. If leaking water reaches your electrical supply or loose wires, it can cause your electricity to short circuit and create a spark which can then ignite a fire. Not only can this cause serious damage to your home but potential be fatal. If you notice a water leak forming close to any electrical wiring, turn off your electrical supply immediately and call us on 1-300-FINDLEAK.
