For two decades, Kiamba Plumbing & Drains has helped homeowners and business owners across Kiamba track down hidden water leaks before they cause lasting damage.

We've located everything from pitted copper pinholes in ageing hot water pipework to slab leaks hiding beneath concrete floors, and we back every job with upfront fixed pricing so there are no surprises on your invoice. Whether you're chasing an unexplained water bill or a damp patch that refuses to dry out, our experience means we get to the answer quickly and accurately.

Kiamba Plumbing & Drains provides professional leak detection throughout Kiamba and the wider Sunshine Coast, using acoustic correlators, thermal cameras and pressure testing to find leaks without unnecessary digging or demolition. We locate leaking mains, hot water copper pinholes, in-wall risers and slab leaks, then hand you a clear report on what we've found and what it will take to put right. Because we work on upfront fixed pricing, you'll know the cost before any work begins, and our lifetime workmanship guarantee means the repair is built to last.
If you've noticed a spike in your water bill, a damp patch on the lawn or driveway, or a musty smell in a room that shouldn't be wet, it's worth having a proper look before the damage spreads further. Homes and businesses across Kiamba trust our Tidy Tradie plumbers to work cleanly and respectfully in their space, whether it's a house, a shop or a strata unit. Give us a call today and we'll help you get to the bottom of it.
A hidden leak rarely announces itself straight away. Instead, it shows up as a water bill that's crept up for no obvious reason, a water meter that keeps ticking over when every tap in the house is off, or a patch of lawn or driveway that stays soggy no matter the weather. A shower recess that never quite dries out can also point to a wet wall or waterproofing failure behind the tiles, and left alone, these small signs can point to a much bigger problem brewing beneath your slab or inside a wall cavity.
Underground and under-slab leaks are particularly tricky because the water often travels before it surfaces, meaning the damp patch on your ceiling might be a long way from the actual leaking pipe. Hot water systems with older copper, poly or PEX pipework are also prone to pinhole leaks that pit the pipe from the inside out, gradually weakening the line until it fails. In commercial buildings and strata units, a hidden leak can affect multiple tenancies before anyone notices, driving up water usage and raising questions from insurers or body corporates.
Left undiagnosed, these leaks can lead to mould, warped flooring, cracked slabs and even structural movement, none of which are cheap to put right. Catching the problem early with proper leak detection is almost always the more sensible path.
Rather than breaking open walls or slabs on a guess, Kiamba Plumbing & Drains uses proven, non-invasive leak detection technology to pinpoint exactly where a pipe has failed. This means less mess, less disruption, and a repair that targets only the section of pipe that actually needs it.
Once we've marked the leak, our plumbers can carry out the repair straight away, whether that's a patch repair, a section of pipe relining, or a full copper replacement where the pipework has had its day. It's one team, one visit, and one fixed price for the whole job.
Leak detection often uncovers other plumbing issues that need attention, so Kiamba Plumbing & Drains offers a full range of related services to get your property back in order. Here are a few ways we can help once the leak has been found.
We follow a methodical process for every leak detection job in Kiamba, so you get an accurate answer instead of a guess. It starts with listening and testing, moves to precise location, and finishes with a straightforward repair plan you can act on with confidence.
We start with isolation tests, meter checks and acoustic listening to narrow down where the leak is likely to be.
