Burst & Leaking Pipes Adelaide
A burst or leaking pipe can flood a home in minutes and quietly rot floors and walls over weeks. Whether it's a dramatic burst or a slow, hidden weep, we locate the source and repair it properly — not just patch the symptom.
Adelaide's older homes and reactive clay soils put real stress on pipework, so bursts are common in summer heat and after cold snaps. We repair copper, PEX, poly and galvanised lines and can re-pipe problem sections that keep failing.
$0 call out fee. During normal business hours only. After-hours work excluded. Terms apply.
What we do
Fast leak isolation
We shut off and contain the leak immediately, then dry out and assess the affected area so damage doesn't spread.
Lasting pipe repairs
Damaged sections are cut out and replaced with quality materials to code for a durable repair.
Re-piping problem lines
If corroded galvanised or brittle poly keeps letting go, we'll advise on staged replacement for lasting peace of mind.

Common questions
How do I find a hidden water leak?
Signs of a hidden leak include an unexplained jump in your water bill, damp patches or mould, the sound of running water, or a water meter that keeps ticking over when everything is turned off.
Read the full guideWhen should pipes be replaced?
Older Adelaide homes may still have galvanised steel pipes that corrode and restrict flow over time. Frequent leaks, discoloured water, low pressure and pipe age are all signs that repiping may be worthwhile.
Read the full guideWhy is my water pressure low?
Low water pressure can stem from a partially closed stop tap, a failing pressure limiting valve, blocked aerators, corroded galvanised pipes, or a hidden leak. Sometimes it affects the whole home; other times just one tap.
