Accurate Acoustic Leak Detection in Perth
Hidden water leaks can be difficult to locate, especially when they occur beneath concrete, behind walls, or underground. Without specialised equipment, finding the exact source can lead to unnecessary excavation, disruption, and costly guesswork.
At G.X.R Plumbing & Gas, we use advanced acoustic leak detection technology to accurately locate hidden leaks by detecting the sound of water escaping from pipes.
This allows us to pinpoint the exact location of the leak without digging up large areas of your property.
Our non-invasive approach helps to:
- Reduce unnecessary excavation
- Minimise disruption to your home or business
- Lower overall repair costs
- Ensure the leak is fixed correctly the first time
With the right tools and experience, we take the guesswork out of leak detection, delivering fast, accurate results across Perth.

How You Know There’s a Hidden Water Leak
Hidden leaks can go unnoticed for long periods, especially when they occur underground or behind surfaces. Many property owners only realise there’s an issue once damage or higher water bills begin to appear.
To avoid costly repairs, keep an eye out for these warning signs:
- Unexplained increase in your water bill
- The sound of running water when no taps are on
- Damp patches on floors, walls, or outdoor areas
- Low water pressure throughout your property
- Cracks in concrete, paving, or foundations
- Soggy areas in your yard or around your property
If you notice any of these signs, there’s a strong chance you have a hidden leak that requires professional detection.
