Flexi-hoses are the braided connectors under sinks, behind toilets, and connecting appliances. Flexi connectors are the leading cause of internal flooding in Australian homes and need replacing every ~10 years.


We use thermal imaging cameras and acoustic sensors to locate the source of a burst or leak without unnecessary damage to walls, floors, or foundations, including pipes inside walls and under slabs.


Where a section of pipe has failed due to corrosion, pressure, or physical damage, we remove it and replace with new fittings and pipework that meet Australian Standards (AS3500).


If a pipe has failed near an obstacle (tree root, a driveway, or a structural element) we reroute new pipework around it rather than repeatedly repairing the same location.


One of the main causes for pipe bursts is high water pressure. We pressure test the system to confirm it is running within manufacturer specifications, which can be relevant for warranty and insurance.
Burst pipes can be caused by ageing pipework, corrosion, tree root intrusion, ground movement, high water pressure, poor installation, or accidental damage during construction work. Identifying the cause is important to prevent the issue from happening again.
Yes. A burst pipe can release large amounts of water in a short period, causing significant damage to your home or property. If you suspect a burst pipe, it’s important to turn off your water supply and contact an emergency plumber as soon as possible.
Our plumbers use a combination of visual inspections, pressure testing, acoustic listening equipment, and leak detection technology to accurately locate burst pipes while minimising disruption to your property.
In many cases, yes. Depending on the location and condition of the pipe, a plumber may be able to repair only the damaged section. If the pipe is severely deteriorated or multiple failures are likely, a full pipe replacement may be the most cost-effective long-term solution.
