Burst and Leaking pipes
At Buick Plumbing & Gas, we can locate and repair burst and leaking pipes throughout Williamstown, Yarraville, Newport, Altona North, Altona, Point Cook, Hoppers Crossing, Werribee, Seddon, Footscray and surrounding areas. Whether the leak is underground, inside wall cavities, under concrete or in the roof space, we trace the source, diagnose the cause and repair it properly. From sudden bursts to slow hidden leaks, we provide same-day response, isolate the damage, repair or replace pipework, pressure test the pipework and ensure everything complies with Victorian plumbing regulations.
The photos above are from a job where we located a hidden leak under a concrete driveway. These types of leaks often go unnoticed until you see rising water bills, damp patches, or pooling. Our team was able to diagnose the problem, pinpoint the location beneath the slab, and provide a repair plan to access and fix the damaged pipe.
Some common signs of leak include-
-Rising water bills
-Damp smells or musty odors
-Wet patches or stains on walls and ceilings
-Water meter moving when taps are off
This photo illustrates an eroded section of copper pipe we removed during a repair. Corrosion like this can form slowly inside walls, under driveways, or underground, eventually causing leaks, loss of pressure, and water damage.
