Why leaks are hard to find in Victoria Point

Victoria Point is a bayside suburb in the City of Redland, about 37 km south-east of the Brisbane CBD. About 15,100 people live here. It is mainly residential, with several retirement villages, a large shopping centre, and a ferry to Coochiemudlo Island.

Most homes and villas sit on concrete slabs, so leaks in hot or cold pipes and failed shower waterproofing can run unseen. In retirement villages and townhouse complexes, shared pipes mean one leak can affect several homes. The first sign is often a higher water bill, a stain on a ceiling or wall, loose shower tiles or a meter that never stops. We find the exact source, so only a small area needs to be opened for the repair.

High Redland water bill?

Redland City Council supplies water in Victoria Point. Leaks on your side of the meter are the owner's responsibility. If a hidden leak has pushed up your bill, council's concealed leak remission can reduce the water consumption charges for eligible customers, with more help for eligible pensioners. A licensed plumber's report of the leak and repair is needed. Our report shows where the leak was and what caused it, which supports your application. Download our free leak credit claim checklist.

Victoria Point leak detection FAQs

How much does leak detection cost in Victoria Point?

It starts from $398 inc. GST for the first hour on site, including thermal imaging, acoustic and tracer gas equipment and an insurance-ready PDF report. Extra time, if needed, is $168 per hour. Most single leaks are found within the first hour, and we give you a free phone quote before we book.

How do I know if I have a hidden water leak?

Turn off every tap and water-using appliance, then check your water meter. If the dial is still moving, water is escaping somewhere. Other signs include a higher Redland water bill, damp walls or skirting boards, a musty smell, mould or warm spots on a tiled floor.

Do you offer emergency leak detection in Victoria Point?

Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 on 1300 346 353. Same-day appointments are often available across Victoria Point, Thornlands, Redland Bay and the Redlands Coast.

Can you work with a retirement village or body corporate manager?

Yes. We arrange access with residents and the manager, find the leak without making a mess, and send a clear report on the source and who is responsible for the repair.

Can you find a leak under a concrete slab without digging it all up?

Yes. We use thermal imaging, acoustic ground microphones and tracer gas to pinpoint the leak through the slab, then mark the exact spot. Only a small area needs to be opened for the repair.

Will my report help with an insurance claim or a high water bill?

Yes. Every job includes a PDF report with photos, readings and the cause of the leak. Insurers use it to assess resultant damage claims, and it supports an application to Redland City Council for help with a bill caused by a hidden leak.
