Government Facilities

Public buildings, schools, hospitals, and municipal facilities requiring non-invasive slab leak detection.

School building assessment
Hospital facility scanning
Government office buildings
Community centre foundations

Residential & Strata

Apartment buildings, condominiums, and strata complexes with concrete slab construction and under-slab plumbing.

Basement slab detection
Parkade floor scanning
Unit floor assessment
Common area foundations

Non-Invasive Detection Technology

Locate slab leaks without breaking concrete using three complementary technologies.

Thermal Imaging

High-resolution infrared cameras detect temperature differentials caused by water movement under concrete, revealing leak locations and migration paths.

Visualise hidden leaks

Acoustic Detection

Sensitive acoustic sensors detect the sound signature of water escaping from pressurised pipes embedded in or under concrete slabs.

Pinpoint precision

Ground Penetrating Radar

GPR imaging reveals pipe locations, void formation, and moisture accumulation within and beneath concrete slab structures.

Non-destructive scanning

Common Causes of Slab Leaks

Understanding what causes slab leaks helps property owners identify risk factors early.

Pipe Corrosion

Copper and galvanised pipes corrode over time, especially in aggressive soil conditions, leading to pinhole leaks.

Ground Movement

Seismic activity, soil settlement, and freeze-thaw cycles stress embedded pipes causing cracks and joint failures.

Poor Installation

Improper pipe installation during construction creates weak points that eventually develop into leaks.

High Water Pressure

Excessive water pressure stresses pipe joints and fittings, accelerating wear and causing premature failure.

Chemical Attack

Aggressive soil chemistry and water quality can accelerate pipe degradation from the outside or inside.

Age & Wear

All piping materials have a finite lifespan. Older buildings are particularly susceptible to slab leak issues.

Warning Signs

Signs You May Have a Slab Leak

Slab leaks are hidden but rarely silent. Watch for these warning signs that indicate a potential leak under your concrete foundation.

Hot spots on concrete floor
Sound of running water under floor
Unexplained increase in water bills
Damp or wet spots on flooring
Mould or mildew smell
Cracks in foundation or walls
Low water pressure
Warm areas on floor (hot water line leak)

The Cost of Ignoring Slab Leaks

Slab leaks worsen over time. What starts as a small leak can cause:

Foundation damage requiring $10,000+ in repairs
Mould growth creating health hazards
Structural instability and safety concerns
Flooring and interior damage
Significantly increased water bills
