Leak Detection Pakuranga - FAQs
Common questions about thermal imaging leak detection in Pakuranga
Q:How does thermal imaging leak detection work?
A: Thermal imaging leak detection uses specialised FLIR infrared cameras that detect temperature differences created by water leaks. Escaping water changes the temperature of building materials such as concrete, timber, and plasterboard. Our cameras display these temperature variations as detailed colour images, allowing us to pinpoint the exact leak location in Pakuranga properties without cutting into walls or lifting floors.
Q:Can you detect leaks under concrete slabs in Pakuranga?
A: Yes, we specialise in under-slab leak detection throughout Pakuranga and neighbouring Howick, Botany, and Half Moon Bay. Many Pakuranga homes were built on concrete slab foundations during the suburb's development boom, and we use acoustic leak detection combined with thermal imaging to locate leaks beneath concrete floors and driveways without any destructive investigation.
Q:Do you provide insurance reports for leak detection in Pakuranga?
A: Yes, we provide fully detailed, insurance-approved leak detection reports for all Pakuranga properties. Our reports include high-resolution thermal images, moisture meter readings, precise leak location details, and professional repair recommendations. These comprehensive reports are accepted by all major New Zealand insurance companies and help fast-track your water damage claim.
Q:Can I get a Watercare refund for a hidden leak in Pakuranga?
A: Yes! We provide Network Utility Operator (NUO) reports accepted by Watercare Auckland for claiming refunds on excess water charges caused by undetected leaks. Pakuranga property owners have recovered significant sums after we detected and documented their hidden leaks. We handle all the documentation needed for your Watercare refund application.
Q:How much does leak detection cost in Pakuranga?
A: Leak detection in Pakuranga typically costs between $350-$800 depending on property size and investigation complexity. This includes thermal imaging inspection, moisture testing, and a comprehensive written report. Most Pakuranga clients recover the cost through insurance claims or Watercare refunds, and save considerably by avoiding unnecessary demolition. We provide fixed-price quotes with no surprises.
Q:How quickly can you respond to a leak detection call in Pakuranga?
A: We provide same-day leak detection services in Pakuranga for enquiries received before midday. For emergency situations with active water damage, we offer priority response and can typically be on-site within 1-2 hours. Our team services Pakuranga, Howick, Botany, and Half Moon Bay regularly, ensuring consistently fast response times throughout the area.
Q:Are 1970s and 1980s homes in Pakuranga at higher risk of hidden leaks?
A: Yes, many Pakuranga homes built during the 1970s and 1980s development period have original galvanised steel or copper plumbing that is now 40-50 years old. These ageing pipe systems are increasingly prone to pinhole leaks, corroded joints, and deteriorating fittings. Our thermal imaging technology excels at finding these slow, hidden leaks in older Pakuranga homes before they cause extensive water damage to floors, walls, and foundations.
