The Most Common Causes of Bathroom Leaks

Bathroom leaks are a real pain for Aussie homeowners and businesses. They can pop up anywhere, from your shower to the loo.

Here are the most common causes of bathroom leaks in residential and commercial properties:

​

  • Shower waterproofing gone wrong: Water seeps through shower walls and floors.

  • Worn-out seals: Faulty o-rings and seals around taps and shower heads.

  • Cracked tiles or grout: Small cracks let water in and moisture intrusion.

  • Toilet troubles: Wobbly loo or busted cistern = sneaky leaks.

  • Pipe problems: Corroded or loose pipes in your plumbing system.

  • Blocked drains: Clogged pipes cause water to back up and overflow.

  • Roof and ceiling issues: Sometimes, it's coming from above!

​

If you catch these early, you can save yourself from costly damage and repairs. If you suspect a leak, call in the leak detection specialists.

​

 

Pros use state-of-the-art equipment like thermal imaging cameras to find the source of the leak and fix it fast.

How Do I Know If I Have a Leak from My Shower or Bathtub?

 

Shower and bathtub leaks are common in homes and businesses. Signs of a shower leak are water pooling in the wet area, peeling paint, and mould on the walls or ceiling. You may also notice loose tiles or cracks in the floor or walls, which indicates water damage.

 

Check the showerhead, faucet, or any seals around the tub for leaks. In commercial properties, especially high-traffic bathrooms, undetected leaks can cause significant damage and costly repairs.

 

Our leak detection experts use advanced methods, like thermal imaging, to find leaks behind tiles or walls. Act fast, whether it is a small drip or a big shower leak. A comprehensive inspection will find and fix shower leaks before they become a major plumbing problem and damage the property.

What are the signs of leaks in your toilet?

 

Toilet leaks are hard to detect but can cause serious water damage. Common signs are a constantly running toilet, water pooling around the base, or a musty smell from your bathroom.

 

Worn-out flappers, broken seals, or plumbing problems in the water supply lines can cause these leaks.

 

Small leaks from toilets in commercial properties can increase water bills and cause long-term structural damage. Water leak detection is essential to avoid costly repairs, especially in frequently used bathrooms.

 

A professional leak detection process involves checking seals, inspecting water supply connections and looking for hidden leaks under the floor or behind the walls.

 

Our bathroom leak detection services in Melbourne include inspecting your toilet and fixing any leaks to prevent water damage.

How Do I Know If My Sink or Faucet Is Leaking?

 

Leaks from sinks and faucets are easy to see but often overlooked. A dripping faucet, water stains under the sink, or dampness around the cabinets could all indicate a problem.

 

If not fixed, these leaks can waste water and cause water damage over time.

​

Leaking sinks in commercial bathrooms can also create slippery floors and the risk of injury. Finding and fixing these leaks early will avoid structural damage and higher water bills.

​

Our leak detection services can detect leaks from residential and commercial sinks and faucets. We use the latest technology to inspect your entire plumbing system and fix any leaks before they worsen.

 

Our experts can quickly fix any leak, whether a small faucet leak or a bigger plumbing problem.

How Do I Find Hidden Leaks in the Pipes in My Bathroom?

 

Hidden pipe leaks are the hardest to detect. They can be behind walls, under floors or within ceilings and are invisible until you see severe water damage.

 

Signs of hidden leaks are bubbling paint, water stains, or a sudden increase in your water bills.

​

Pipe leaks can cause major damage to homes and businesses if not fixed immediately. Our bathroom leak detection specialists use thermal imaging and other advanced methods to find potential leaks in your plumbing system, even if hidden from sight.

​

Early water leak detection is key to avoiding costly repairs. By finding and fixing hidden leaks in your bathroom pipes, we can prevent damage to your walls, floor or ceiling and save you money in the long run.

FAQs: Melbourne Gas Detection Melbourne

 

How do I know where my bathroom is leaking from?

 

Look for visible signs like water stains, mould or damp spots. Check around taps, toilets and shower areas. Listen for dripping sounds. If you can't see the source or suspect hidden leaks, get a professional leak detection expert to do a full inspection.

How do I find where a leak is coming from?

Turn off all taps, watch your water meter, and check your water usage patterns. If your meter is still ticking or your water bill spikes, check visible areas for puddles, drips or damp areas. Stains, moulds and physical signs may point to the source; call a plumber if needed.

What's the most common bathroom leak?

The dunny is usually the culprit, often due to worn-out parts like flappers or fill valves. Dripping taps come second. Shower leaks are common, too, especially in older homes with lousy waterproofing.

How do plumbers find leaks in walls?

Plumbers use flash gear to find hidden leaks. They may also use thermal imaging cameras to see temperature variations, acoustic devices to hear water flow, and moisture meters to find damp spots.
