Hidden leak & drain camera detection
Got a water bill that doesn't add up?
If your water bill has crept up and you can't work out why, or you've noticed a damp patch on the lawn or driveway that won't go away, there's a good chance you've got a water main leak. The tricky part is that these leaks often happen underground, or even under concrete, where you can't see a thing.
That's where accurate leak detection makes all the difference. Rather than guessing, or worse, digging up half the yard to find the problem, we use a water leak detector that listens for the sound of water escaping underground. It lets us pinpoint the leak's location with a lot more accuracy, so any repair work is targeted and efficient.
How we find the source of the problem
Every water main leak is a little different, so we start by listening. Our water leak detector picks up on the specific sound leaking water makes as it moves through the ground or under concrete. Once we've got a good idea of where the leak is, we can plan the repair without unnecessary digging or disruption to your property.
Blocked or slow drains? We can see what's really going on
Leaks aren't the only hidden problem. If your drains are blocked, slow, or backing up more than once, it helps to know exactly what's causing it before any work begins. We run a camera through your drain to get a clear look at what's happening inside the pipe.
This tells us whether it's a one-off blockage, like something that shouldn't have gone down the drain, or a recurring issue that points to a bigger underlying problem, such as tree roots, a collapsed pipe, or ongoing wear. Either way, you get an accurate diagnosis before we recommend any fix.
The right gear for the job, big or small
We've got the capability to handle household drains through to full main sewer lines. For bigger or more stubborn blockages, our jetter truck clears the line thoroughly, rather than just pushing the problem further down the pipe.
Why accuracy matters
Finding the actual source of a leak or blockage means less disruption, less cost, and a fix that actually solves the problem rather than a temporary patch. It's part of how we've worked for four generations here in the Bay of Plenty: get the diagnosis right, then do the job properly the first time.
If you've got a water bill that doesn't make sense, a soggy patch in the yard, or a drain that keeps giving you grief, get in touch and we'll take a proper look.
