Joel Hunter
Water leaks lead to thousands of gallons of water waste each day. Not only is this sorry news for the environment, but it can increase your water bill and lead to damage in the structure of your property. If you live in the Port Kennedy area and you suspect that your home may have a water leak, Drip Hunters will locate the water leak and repair it without delay.
How to tell if you have a water leak?
An obvious indication of a water leak is a wet floor that is not caused by any spillage. However, sometimes the problem is less obvious. Here are other indications of a possible leak in your plumbing system:
- Sounds of running water when taps are not turned on
- A sudden increase in your water bill
- Water stains or peeling paint on your ceiling or walls
- Appearance of mould and mildew around the kitchen, laundry and bathroom areas
- A sagged ceiling
Main causes of water leaks
Leaks can be caused by the following reasons:
- Wear and tear or corrosion of the pipes
- Excessively high water pressure
- Loose or broken water connectors
- Pipe burst caused by blocked drains
- Broken pipe joints or seals
- Mistakes in pipe installation
- Pipes damaged by tree roots
Whatever the cause, our highly skilled plumbers will conduct a thorough inspection and find the cause of the leak. They will recommend the best repair method whilst considering your budget.
How to prevent water leaks?
There are simple things that you can do to reduce the risk of water leaks at home:
- Inspect your sinks and drains on a regular basis for cracks and leaks.
- If your property is prone to water leaks, install a leak detector. If there is a leak, it will set off an alarm and alert you so you can take immediate action.
- If you plan to be away from home for an extended period of time, shut off the water main to avoid leaks from damaging your home while you are away.
- If there is a decrease in water pressure over a couple of days or more, check the website of the Water Corporation to see if there are any known water issues. Follow their instructions on conducting a water pressure test.

Drip Hunters is always responsive and professional. I always use Drip Hunters and I highly recommend them.
Very professional service. Joel doesn't mess about. Diagnosed and resolved our plumbing issues very quickly. Will use again.
...the last time Joel came for a job, he even brought home-made play dough and placemats as a gift for the children.
I needed someone to come and put in a "renters" air con, even though not technically in his wheelhouse, I needed a handyman and Joel was the MAN!
