Leak Detection
Non-Destructive Leak Detection in Boksburg
Hidden leaks are one of the biggest causes of unexpectedly high water bills in Ekurhuleni. Shifting clay soils, old galvanised pipes and pressure surges after water outages all stress the pipes under your floors, inside walls and buried in the garden.
Using acoustic listening equipment, thermal imaging and pressure testing, we pinpoint the leak so we only open up the area that needs repairing. We then fix the pipe and can provide a report for your municipal account query or insurance claim.

Local Plumbing Problems
Boksburg Conditions That Cause These Problems
Plumbing on the East Rand faces its own mix of challenges. These local conditions are behind many of the call-outs we attend:
Shifting Soil & Hidden Leaks
Clay soils and old mining ground on the East Rand move between the wet and dry seasons, stressing underground water and sewer pipes. A high water bill or a damp patch is often a hidden leak, which we find with electronic leak detection.
Old Galvanised & Asbestos Pipes
Many older homes in and around Boksburg still run on galvanised steel or asbestos-cement pipes laid decades ago. They corrode from the inside, cause rusty water and low pressure, and fail without warning. We replace old pipes with modern PEX, HDPE or copper.
Water Outages & Pressure Surges
Ekurhuleni water interruptions and Rand Water maintenance shutdowns are a regular part of life in Boksburg. When the supply comes back on, air locks and pressure surges can burst weak pipes, damage geyser valves and leave taps spluttering. We repair burst lines, fit pressure-control valves and install JoJo backup tanks with pumps.
Winter Frost & Cracked Pipes
Cold Highveld winter nights can freeze exposed pipes, geyser overflow lines and garden taps, which crack and leak when they thaw. We repair burst pipes and lag exposed plumbing to stop it happening again.

Got Questions?
Leak Detection Boksburg FAQs
Tap a question to see the answer.
Close every tap and check the water meter. If the dial keeps moving, water is escaping somewhere. Other signs include damp patches, mould, lifting floor tiles and a sudden jump in your water bill.
Only at the leak itself. Our detection equipment pinpoints the leak, so we open up a small area instead of guessing.
We can find and repair the leak and give you a written report, which you can include with your query to the municipality.
