On this watermain repair, we had excavated to the suspected leak location, but the hole was rapidly filling with water, making it difficult to determine exactly where the leak was coming from - or which direction we needed to keep digging.
So we used our leak detection equipment again while on site to track the leak and pinpoint its location๐Ÿ’ง

This is one of the advantages of having leak detection and repair specialists in the same team - we can investigate, locate and repair the leak without having to bring someone else back out when things get complicated.

Addressing groundwater and stormwater ingress in Glenfield.

This garage had ongoing water ingress during heavy rainfall, but the underlying cause wasn't immediately obvious. After a thorough assessment, we identified that groundwater from beneath the main dwelling was migrating towards the garage due to incorrect drainage levels and ground levels that were higher than the garage floor.

Our team is carrying out excavation and installing a new subsoil drainage system at the correct depth to intercept groundwater before it reaches the structure. Once complete, the new drainage will help direct groundwater safely away from the property and provide a long-term solution to the ongoing moisture issues.

๐Ÿ”Ž Leak Found! A small leak can cause a surprisingly big problem underground.
This watermain connection was leaking under pressure, allowing water to escape into the surrounding ground. Once located, we can expose the pipe and carry out a targeted repair - without digging up the entire area.

Protecting a Hillcrest home from stormwater ingress.

Heavy rainfall was allowing water to enter the lower level of this home, causing moisture to track in along the foundation walls. After assessing the property, we found the existing drainage wasn't installed deep enough to effectively intercept groundwater before it reached the building.

Our team is carrying out excavation around three sides of the home to install a new compliant subsoil drainage system, complete with a new cesspit and overflow connection. We're also working alongside our trusted waterproofing partner to help provide a long-term solution and protect the home's foundations from future water ingress.

Stormwater drainage upgrade in progress!

This home was experiencing a wet subfloor, and our CCTV drain inspection identified the cause. An existing roof downpipe had been connected into an old subsoil drainage system instead of a sealed stormwater drain, allowing rainwater to soak into the surrounding ground rather than being carried safely away.

Our team is installing a new sealed stormwater drain to correctly divert roof water away from the property, helping protect the home's foundations and improve long-term drainage performance.

Replacing ageing Dux Qest pipework in Murrays Bay.

During a recent leak investigation, we identified a hidden leak caused by ageing black Dux Qest (polybutylene) pipework. This type of plumbing has now exceeded its expected service life and is well known for developing leaks as it ages.

Our team is replacing the affected pipework with a modern, reliable plumbing system and installing a pressure limiting valve to help protect the new pipework for years to come. Replacing failing pipework before multiple leaks occur can help prevent costly water damage and ongoing repairs.

Have black Dux Qest pipework and experiencing constant plumbing leaks? Contact Your Local Plumber for expert pipe repair/replacement and plumbing solutions throughout Auckland.
