Aside from the obvious signs of damp spots or pooling water, common indicators of a hidden leak include a sudden, unexplained spike in your water bill, the sound of running water when all taps are off, low water pressure, or a continuously spinning water meter even when no water is being used inside the house.
Most home insurance policies cover damage caused by a sudden and accidental burst pipe (e.g., water damage to plaster, flooring, and furniture). However, they usually do not cover the cost of repairing the pipe itself, especially if the leak was due to gradual wear and tear. We recommend checking your specific policy details or contacting your insurer directly.
The repair time depends heavily on the location and severity of the burst. A straightforward, accessible pipe repair might take only 1-3 hours. A complex, hidden leak that requires extensive detection and wall/floor access could take longer. The Patient Plumber always works efficiently to resolve the issue as quickly as possible while ensuring a high-quality, long-lasting repair.
Sydney's climate and infrastructure contribute to common pipe failure. Causes include old, corroded piping (especially galvanised or very old copper), high water pressure, tree root intrusion into pipes, and sudden temperature changes which can cause pipes to expand and contract rapidly, weakening joints or cracking the pipe material.
