Why Professional Leak Detection Matters

Small leaks can quickly turn into major problems if ignored.
Professional detection helps:

  • Prevent costly structural damage and mould growth

  • Save water and reduce utility bills

  • Avoid digging or wall removal through non-invasive technology

  • Restore plumbing performance and prevent future leaks

At Response Plumbing Wellington, we combine local expertise with modern tools — including thermal cameras, acoustic sensors, and pressure testing — to find and fix leaks accurately, without guesswork.

Signs You May Have a Hidden Leak

Not all leaks are visible. If you notice any of the following signs, it’s time to call a professional plumber:

  • Sudden increase in water bills

  • Damp walls, floors, or ceilings

  • Reduced water pressure

  • Sounds of dripping or running water when taps are off

  • Mould, mildew, or musty odours

  • Puddles or soft spots on your lawn

Early detection can save you thousands in property repairs.
