Think You Might Have A Pesky Water Leak?
Most people don’t even know they have a water leak. The W.A. auditing general has reported the Water Corporation loses billions of litres of water every year due to leaks. More than half of these water leaks go undetected.
A regular leak can be irritating and unsightly, but it’s the inaudible leaks that homeowners need to watch for. They have the potential to run up your water bill by hundreds of dollars over the year.
G.X.R.’s water leak detection team specialises in detecting and fixing water leaks. Using their acoustic leak detection tools, they can find even the smallest of inaudible leaks. If you notice any signs of a water leak, call G.X.R. right away, as a leak can cause long-term, expensive structural damage.
While some water leakage is more obvious (flooding, a burst pipe, or a leaky shower head), it’s the hidden, inaudible leaks that are often the most dangerous and costly. This is partly because most water leaks are hidden.
Not just that, but a plumbing leak can cost you big time. Every drop of water that’s leaking is a drop out of your wallet! Don’t waste time or risk structural damage to your home if you suspect a water leak!
Our Perth leak detection specialists will come to you and locate your problem fast and repair any water damage issues:
- hot water system leaks
- shower and bathroom leaks
- toilet cistern leaks
- ceiling or driveway leaks
- leaking balconies
- hidden underground water leaks
- reticulation leaks
- commercial leaks

We’re Equipped With The Latest Ultrasonic Leak Detection Technology
We’ve been servicing the Perth metro area for over 20 years, resolving water leak detection issues. In that time, we’ve seen it all and encountered a wide range of leaks. Some are small and easy to spot, but others require the skill and equipment of a licensed plumber before repairs on the leak can commence.
GXR’s team is equipped with the latest water leak detection equipment and training to find even the toughest hidden water leaks, including mystery leaks that are often hidden in roofs, windows, and faulty tile grout. Our leak detection experts know what to look for to quickly locate the leak, reducing costs for you and saving water and time.
Acoustic water leak detection uses 40 kHz sound waves, which are twice the range of human hearing! These waves allow our expert plumbers to detect water flow outside the usual distribution system.
We’ll hone in on the water leak with a sensitivity that can detect pinhole leaks down to 1 psi. Giving you the peace of mind that your household won’t be suffering from any unnecessary costs or disturbances in future. Your water meter and your wallet will thank you!
