Watertight Plumbing Limited — plumbers, gasfitters and drainlayers hunting hidden watermain leaks across Auckland. Acoustic detection, fixed upfront pricing, most repairs done the same day.
Acoustic listening and pressure testing to pinpoint hidden leaks — no exploratory digging.
Burst or weeping mains repaired from meter to house, pressure-tested before we leave.
Repairs, replacements and upgrades — gas and electric, sized to your household.
Certified gasfitters for cooktops, heating and hot water, with compliance paperwork.
Blocked drains cleared and flushed; camera inspection when blockages recur.
Taps, toilets, vanities, pipework and appliance installs for the whole house.
Most leaks we find are invisible from the surface. The bill creeps up, a patch of lawn stays suspiciously green, or the meter ticks over at 2am. Our job is to turn those clues into a precise location — usually within a metre.
Detection starts from $199 + GST for a standard residential section. You approve the number before we roll the van, and you see the pressure reading before we quote the repair. No hourly meter running while we "take a look".
Detection and repair are scheduled together whenever possible. Find it in the morning, fix it by the afternoon, pressure-test it before we leave — with a written summary for your records.
Damp patch, spinning meter, high bill — tell us the symptoms at (555) 010-2030 and we book a fixed-price visit.
Acoustic equipment and pressure tests narrow the leak to a small patch of ground. You see the reading.
Targeted dig, repair, backfill and a pressure test after. Written summary included.
Meter stops spinning, lawn dries out, next bill drops. If it doesn't, we come back.
Describe the problem and your suburb. We reply with a fixed price before the van rolls — no hourly surprises.

Auckland's clay soils shift with the seasons and mature tree roots hunt for moisture at every joint. The failures we see most: split poly pipe at fittings, corroded galvanised runs in pre-1990s homes, and root intrusion at old clay joints — usually silent until the bill spikes.
Warning signs: a meter that creeps with everything off, a lawn patch that never dries, or a bill that jumps with no change in usage.
A pressurised leak makes a distinct hiss that travels along the pipe wall. Acoustic sensors pick up what no eye can see, typically locating the leak within a metre or two — which is why we can quote a targeted repair instead of exploratory trenching.
Early detection is the difference between a half-day repair and a full main replacement.
