Hidden water leaks affect Ipswich properties of every age, from older Queenslanders with ageing pipework to newer homes with services beneath concrete slabs. Warning signs can include an unexplained rise in your water bill, damp plaster, mould, warm or discoloured flooring, low pressure, or the sound of water running when every tap is off.
We understand how frustrating this can be. Leaks can cause ongoing damage, create mess, and lead to costly repairs if not found early. Many property owners worry about how long it will take to locate the problem, how much damage has already been done, and whether the issue will keep coming back.
Leak detection is a specialised service that not all plumbers are equipped to carry out properly. At Jetset Plumbing, our team is made up of fully licensed plumbers who have completed years of training and real-world experience across a wide range of leak situations, from leaking taps and pipes in walls to cracked, corroded, or damaged pipes.
We provide a modern solution using advanced, non-invasive leak detection equipment to locate leaks quickly and accurately. Once the source is identified, we assess the condition of your pipes and recommend the most suitable repair options. Our focus is on reliable, long-term solutions for residential and commercial properties, carried out properly with minimal disruption, so you can have confidence the issue has been resolved.

Underground and in-wall leak detection locates water escaping behind plaster, beneath concrete slabs, under driveways or below garden areas. Across Ipswich, a concealed supply-pipe leak can waste significant water before it becomes visible, so an unexpected meter reading or consistently damp ground should be investigated.
Using specialised, non-invasive leak detection technology, including high-frequency ultrasonic listening devices and thermal imaging, we can pinpoint exactly where the leak is coming from. This allows leaks to be found through walls and concrete without cutting or drilling, so the issue can be fixed with minimal disruption.
With the right tools and experience, our team ensures the problem is located accurately and fixed properly.
Pipe, shower and roof leaks can allow water to travel along framing, masonry or ceiling cavities before a stain appears. Ipswich's summer downpours can make roof and flashing leaks intermittent, while failed shower waterproofing or pressurised pipework may cause damage even in dry weather. We test likely sources methodically before recommending repairs.
You might notice damp patches, water stains, dripping sounds, or areas that stay wet longer than they should. Using specialised, non-invasive tools, the source of the leak is traced and identified without unnecessary damage to walls, tiles, or roofing materials.
Our team delivers accurate leak detection that finds the problem properly and ensures it is fixed right the first time.
A burst or split pipe can release water quickly into an Ipswich home, garden or commercial property. The source is not always directly below the visible water. We isolate the affected service, locate the failed section and explain the safest repair needed to bring the plumbing back under control.
You may notice a sudden drop in water pressure, water pooling, or visible flooding, but the source is not always clear. Using advanced detection equipment, the burst pipe is located and isolated so the repair can be carried out quickly and with minimal disruption.
With fast response and proven methods, our team ensures the issue is fixed properly and your plumbing is brought back under control.
Step 1
Your licensed plumber reviews the symptoms, water usage and affected areas, then checks the meter and accessible plumbing to narrow down the likely leak zone.
Step 2
Suitable non-invasive equipment, such as acoustic listening devices and thermal imaging, is used according to the pipe material, location and property conditions.
Step 3
Once the source is confirmed, we explain what was found and provide an upfront price for the recommended repair before work proceeds.
Step 4
Where access is required, we keep the repair area as targeted as possible and discuss reinstatement requirements with you.

There are several signs you may have a water leak on your property. You might notice higher water bills, damp patches on walls or ceilings, water pooling in unusual areas, or grass that stays wet. Some leaks are hidden and harder to detect. A simple way to check is your water meter. If it continues moving when no water is being used, there may be a hidden leak.
If you can see signs of water damage but cannot find the source, the leak is likely hidden behind walls, under floors, or underground. A plumber can locate the issue using non-invasive tools, helping find the leak without cutting into walls or digging up your property unnecessarily.
Plumbers use specialised tools to locate the source of a leak. This can include advanced, non-invasive equipment such as listening devices and thermal cameras, which help detect leaks through walls, floors and concrete without causing unnecessary damage.
The best way to detect a water leak depends on its location and severity. A plumber will use advanced, non-invasive tools, including listening devices that pick up the sound of escaping water and thermal cameras that detect temperature changes. These methods help locate leaks behind walls, under floors and underground without unnecessary damage.
In most cases, no. Modern leak detection uses non-invasive methods, so there is usually no need to cut into walls, drill into concrete, or dig up your property. The goal is to pinpoint the leak so repairs can be completed with minimal disruption.
Water leaks can occur for many reasons, including old or worn pipes, tree roots entering pipes, cracks, ground movement, worn plumbing fixtures and pressure issues. Identifying the cause ensures the problem is repaired properly and helps prevent future leaks.
The time required depends on where the leak is located and how easy it is to access. Many leaks can be identified during the same visit, while more complex issues, such as underground leaks or leaks on larger properties, may take longer.
Yes, leak detection should always be carried out by a licensed plumber. A qualified professional has the training and equipment to accurately locate the leak and ensure it is repaired safely and correctly.
