Unsure which leak detection service you need? Many clients contact ALD after noticing a high water bill, damp ceiling, leaking pool, or water damage without knowing where the problem starts. ALD specialises in precise, non-invasive leak detection for leaks behind tiles, underground, or inside walls. We locate the source, provide a written report, and give your contractor the information needed to repair the right area the first time. Choose the service closest to your issue, or contact us and we'll guide you.
All services use non-invasive technology. We detect — we don't repair. Every inspection includes a written report. Most jobs are booked and completed within 48 hours.
High water bill? Mysterious damp spot? Slow drip inside the walls? We use acoustic listening and tracer gas technology to locate water leaks precisely, without breaking concrete, tiles, or drywall. Full written report included, with repair guidance for your plumber.
View ServiceFor single-storey buildings: we locate the source of roof water ingress without pulling apart your ceiling or removing tiles. Thermal imaging reveals moisture paths. Acoustic scanning finds cracks in gutters and valleys. We identify whether the problem is membrane failure, gutter damage, or internal plumbing.
View ServicePools naturally lose about 2mm of water per day to evaporation. Anything more signals a leak. We use pressure testing, dye injection, and pipe scanning to pinpoint the exact location — in the plumbing or the structure. Reports help you plan repairs and contact pool specialists.
View ServiceMains, service lines, and irrigation supply leaks underground waste enormous amounts of water. We trace pipes acoustically and with tracer gas, locating the exact breach without trenching the entire run. Saves digging, saves landscaping, saves time.
View ServiceWater behind bathroom tiles is a structural threat. It rots timber, causes mould, and spreads silently. We find the leak — whether in plumbing, waterproofing, or grout — before the damage spreads. Early detection saves thousands in structural repairs.
View ServiceOrnamental features and water features need specialist detection — our equipment and expertise covers those too. We find leaks in circulation systems, structural features, and custom installations. We save you water costs while protecting your landscape investment.
View ServiceWaterproofing failures in balconies damage the units below and compromise structural integrity. We pinpoint the breach in membranes or joints, giving owners and building managers clear repair direction and cost estimates.
View ServiceCan't figure out where the water is coming from? That's our favourite type of case. We have the full range of tools and experience to solve detection problems that others have given up on. If there's water, we'll find it.
View ServiceThe only repair service we offer. For pools only. Once we've located your leak, we can handle the repair as well — seamless handoff, no coordination required. We take you from detection to completion.
View ServiceInfrared cameras reveal hidden moisture, heat loss, and structural issues invisible to the eye. We use this technology alongside acoustic and tracer gas methods to build a complete picture of what's happening in your property.
View ServiceInert gas (nitrogen/helium) pressure testing for pipe integrity checks. We test newly installed systems, repaired lines, or existing infrastructure to confirm system integrity. Complies with AS3500 standards and provides documentary proof for councils and builders.
View ServiceCCTV camera inspection for drainage, blockages, root intrusion, and pipe condition assessment. We provide footage and a detailed written report you can share with plumbers or councils for planning repairs.
View ServiceKnow exactly where every pipe runs before you dig, drill, or build. We map water, gas, electrical, and drainage lines using ground-penetrating radar and acoustic location — preventing costly and dangerous mistakes.
View ServiceKnow what you're buying before you sign. We provide a full plumbing condition report that covers supply lines, drainage, hot water systems, and major fixtures. Reports satisfy conveyancers and building inspectors. Essential for due diligence before purchase.

That's it. No surprises. No additional visits required. No hidden costs. The whole thing is transparent and straightforward from start to finish.
If you're comparing leak detection services, you'll notice some specialists still use the old approach: exploratory digging, breaking through surfaces, and hoping to stumble on the leak. It's cheaper upfront. It's also destructive, time-consuming, and often inaccurate. You end up paying for repairs you didn't need and still might not find the actual leak.
Non-invasive detection costs more because it uses technology — acoustic listening devices, thermal imaging cameras, tracer gas systems — instead of guesswork.
We invest in the technology so you don't have to invest in unnecessary repairs. The cost difference between invasive and non-invasive detection is usually recovered in the first repair because you're not paying for exploration or multiple failed attempts.
You don't need to know whether it's in the wall, underground, or under your slab. Just tell us what you've noticed, and ALD will take it from there.
