    Our Leaking & Burst Pipe Services

    We provide comprehensive pipe repair services for both residential and commercial properties.

    Burst Pipe Repairs

    Burst pipes can release large amounts of water in a short period of time, causing extensive damage to walls, flooring, cabinetry, and foundations. We respond quickly to isolate the issue and carry out reliable repairs to minimise further damage.

    Water Leak Detection

    Not all leaks are easy to find. Hidden leaks behind walls, under floors, or underground can often go unnoticed until significant damage has occurred. We use proven diagnostic methods to identify the source of leaks accurately and efficiently.

    Pipe Repairs & Replacement

    Depending on the condition of the pipework, we can repair damaged sections or recommend replacement where necessary. Our goal is always to provide the most practical and cost-effective solution.

    Underground Pipe Repairs

    Underground water leaks can cause pooling water, soggy lawns, reduced water pressure, and unusually high water bills. We can identify and repair underground pipe issues while minimising disruption to your property.

    Preventative Plumbing Maintenance

    If your property has ageing pipework or recurring leaks, we can assess the condition of your plumbing system and recommend preventative repairs before major issues occur.

    Common Signs of a Water Leak

    Unexpectedly High Water Bills

    A sudden increase in your water usage may indicate a hidden leak somewhere on your property.

    Damp or Discoloured Walls

    Water stains, bubbling paint, peeling plaster, or damp patches can all be signs of a concealed leak.

    Reduced Water Pressure

    A damaged or leaking pipe can affect water pressure throughout your home.

    Water Pooling Around Your Property

    Wet patches in your garden, driveway, or around external walls may indicate an underground pipe leak.

    Sounds of Running Water

    If you can hear water running when no taps or appliances are in use, there may be a hidden leak within the plumbing system.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Have questions about your plumbing issue or our services? We’ve answered some of the most common questions from Central Coast homeowners below to help you better understand how we work, what we offer and what to expect when you contact Craig’s Plumbing.

    How do I know if I have a hidden water leak?

    Common signs of a hidden water leak include unusually high water bills, damp patches on walls or ceilings, mould growth, reduced water pressure, sounds of running water when taps are off, or wet areas in your garden. If you notice any of these signs, it’s best to have the issue investigated before it causes further damage.

    What should I do if a pipe bursts?

    If a pipe bursts, turn off your property’s main water supply immediately to minimise water damage. If it is safe to do so, move valuables away from the affected area and contact Craig’s Plumbing as soon as possible for emergency repairs.

    Can you find leaks behind walls or underground?

    Yes. We can locate hidden leaks in walls, ceilings, under floors, and underground pipework. Early detection helps prevent costly repairs and reduces the risk of significant property damage.

    Can a small leak really cause significant damage?

    Absolutely. Even a small leak can waste thousands of litres of water over time and lead to mould growth, structural damage, timber rot, and increased water bills. Addressing leaks early is usually far more cost-effective than repairing extensive damage later.

    Do leaking pipes always need to be replaced?

    Not necessarily. Many leaking pipes can be repaired if the damage is isolated. However, if the pipework is old, heavily corroded, or has multiple failures, replacement may be the most reliable long-term solution. We will always explain your options and recommend the best approach for your situation.
