Why You Need a Pre-Purchase Plumbing Inspection

Hidden plumbing issues are one of the most common causes of property damage and unexpected costs for new homeowners. A detailed plumbing and leak inspection can help you:

  • Avoid costly surprises such as burst pipes, leaking showers, or corroded gas lines
  • Identify hidden water or gas leaks that may not be visible during a standard building inspection
  • Negotiate with confidence, armed with a clear understanding of the property’s true condition
  • Ensure plumbing and gas systems comply with current Australian standards
  • Protect your property’s long-term value and safety

What Our Inspection Includes

Our licensed technicians perform a full, non-invasive inspection using thermal imaging, acoustic listening, tracer gas detection, and moisture mapping to locate leaks with pinpoint accuracy.

We check all major plumbing and gas systems, including:

  • Water and gas supply lines for hidden or active leaks
  • Bathrooms, kitchens, and laundries for water ingress or drainage issues
  • Ceilings, walls, and slabs for moisture or pipe failures
