Burst Pipes
Burst Pipes
A burst or leaking water pipe can happen suddenly, but not every problem is immediately visible. Some leaks remain hidden underground, behind walls or beneath floors until you notice an unusually high water bill, reduced water pressure, damp areas or a persistent wet patch outside despite dry weather. Acting early can help minimise water waste and reduce the risk of further damage to your property.
If you suspect a hidden leak, turn off all taps and water-using appliances and check your water meter while no water is being used. If the reading continues to change, it may indicate a leak somewhere on your property and should be investigated by a licensed plumber.
Wild Water Plumbing provides burst pipe detection, repairs, pipe replacement and pipe relining Sydney, with services available across North Sydney, the North Shore, Northern Beaches and Central Coast. Our experienced plumbers use appropriate diagnostic and repair methods to locate the problem and recommend a long-term solution.

Leak Detection
Water pooling around your property during dry weather can be an obvious sign of a burst pipe, but many leaks are hidden underground, behind walls or beneath floors. Other warning signs can include unexplained increases in water usage, reduced pressure or persistent damp areas. Wild Water Plumbing uses specialist leak detection equipment to help locate the source of the problem with minimal disruption. Our plumbers service North Sydney, the North Shore, Northern Beaches and Central Coast, providing accurate diagnosis before recommending the most appropriate repair.
Pipe Relining & Pipeline Renewal
Where a damaged underground pipe is suitable for relining, pipe renewal can provide a long-term repair without the need for extensive excavation. The process involves creating a new lining within the existing pipe, helping restore its integrity while avoiding unnecessary digging around your property. Wild Water Plumbing provides pipe relining Sydney and can inspect the damaged line first to determine whether relining, sectional repair or replacement is the most suitable solution.
Burst Pipe Replacement
Sometimes a damaged pipe is better repaired by replacing the affected section or, where deterioration is extensive, replacing a larger portion of the line. Above-ground pipework is generally easier to access, allowing our plumbers to identify and replace damaged sections efficiently. Whether you need a plumber North Shore, plumber Northern Beaches or Central Coast plumber, Wild Water Plumbing can assess the condition of your pipework and explain the available repair options before work begins.
Emergency Burst Pipe Repairs
A burst pipe can release a significant amount of water in a short period of time, making fast action important. If you notice sudden flooding, a major loss of water pressure or water escaping from a pipe, turn off your water supply if it is safe to do so and contact Wild Water Plumbing. Our team provides emergency plumbing across North Sydney, the North Shore, Northern Beaches and Central Coast, helping contain the problem, locate the damaged pipe and carry out the necessary repairs.
Burst Pipes
A burst water pipe can happen suddenly, and often remain undetected for a prolonged period of time, until you receive an expensive water bill. An easily recognisable sign that can identify if you have a burst water pipe is if you have a constant wet patch on your lawn and the weather has been clear.
If you have concerns that you may have a burst water pipe or a leak along your water mains, an easy way to confirm this is by turning your water main off overnight, then checking the meter both that night and again the following morning. If the meter is reading water usage, then you have a burst pipe or a leak and need to contact your North Shore pipe renewal and replacement experts at Wild Water Plumbing. At Wild Water Plumbing we offer a complete service of pipe relining sydney to diagnose, repair or replace burst water pipes.

Leak Detection
While water build-up around your home or business when there has been no rainfall is an obvious indication that you have a leak or burst water pipe, it may not always be this easy to recognise a leak. Without the right equipment, finding a burst water pipe or leak can be as difficult as trying to find a needle in a haystack. That is when you need the services of water leak specialists, Wild Water Plumbing.
Our North Shore plumber are equipped with drain cameras and CCTV, so that they can find your burst pipe or leak without delay, and repair or replace it for you.
Pipeline Renewal
If you have a burst water pipe or water leak you need to contact Wild Water Plumbing to repair or replace it for you urgently, so you don’t end up with an expensive water bill. Depending on your pipeline concern, whether it is underground or above ground, there are different methods we use to repair the pipe. For underground pipelines, the main method we use is pipeline renewal, as it avoids trenching. Pipeline renewal involves relining the existing pipe, strengthening it to as new condition..
Pipe Replacement
For burst water pipes that occur in above ground pipelines, replacing sections of the line is a more viable alternative than pipeline renewal, as this type of pipeline is much easier to access.

Pipeline & Guttering Clearing & Gutter Guard Installation
Debris, tree and plant roots and organic matter can block up your pipelines and guttering, resulting in costly repairs, if not regularly cleaned. You can help to alleviate damage to your pipelines by having Wild Water Plumbing clean these using hydrojetting. Hydrojetting directs a high powered water stream along your lines, flushing out any debris that has built-up inside these. We can also arrange scheduled pipeline maintenance for your home or business, to keep your pipelines clear all year round. Another service we offer at North Shore Plumbers is gutter guard installation. Gutter guard works as a filter which helps to stop debris being collected by your guttering and causing damage, or becoming a fire hazard.
