How to tell if you have a leak

Turn off every tap and appliance and check your water meter. If the numbers keep moving, water is going somewhere. Other signs are damp patches, mould, lifting floor coverings and a water bill that jumps for no reason.

Under Queensland rules, many households can apply to the local water retailer for a concession on bills caused by a concealed leak once it has been fixed by a plumber. Keep the plumber's report and invoice.

Fixing it properly

Once we find the leak we explain the repair. That might be a new section of pipe, a new fitting or, for old rusted galvanised pipe, a plan to replace it before it fails somewhere else.

Leak detection and repairs: common questions

Can a leaking toilet waste much water?

Yes. A cistern that runs into the bowl can waste a lot of water every day without any sign other than a higher bill. Put a few drops of food colouring in the cistern; if colour shows in the bowl without flushing, it is leaking.
