Our Leak Detection Services
Leaking Shower Repair Merewether
A leaking shower in Merewether will often start small, but it can quickly grow to cause damage to your walls, ceilings and timber frames. Moisture trapped behind tiles creates mould and makes your grout weaker, leading to expensive repairs if ignored.
We’ll fix your leaky shower without pulling out your tiles!
Our team uses non-invasive tools to locate the source of the leak, whether it is old or broken waterproofing, cracked grout, or a faulty shower screen. We provide specific, targeted repairs that protect your bathroom without unnecessary demolition, saving you both time and money. Because our team are all licensed plumbers, we make sure we check the entire shower for any hidden issues others might miss.
Warning signs of a leaking shower
Musty smells in your bathroom

Professional shower leak repairs in Merewether keep your bathroom safe, dry and looking great.
Leaking Pool Repair Merewether
Pool leaks in Merewether can lead to you losing thousands of litres of water in as little as a week, wasting your money and potentially damaging the surrounding paving or gardens. Many Merewether homeowners will start to notice higher water bills, but can’t seem to find where the leak might be coming from.
At Leak Hunters, we make finding pool leaks simple. Using advanced methods like dye testing, pressure testing, and thermal imaging, we can pinpoint the issue without having to drain your pool or dig up the garden. Once we find the leak, our local Merewether team repairs the cracked shells, plumbing issues, or damaged tiles to get your pool back in perfect shape.
Whether it’s in a hot Aussie summer or a cooler winter, when leaks go unnoticed, acting fast can save you money and unneeded stress.

Our team will visit your property to check your balcony and find where the leak might be coming from. It could be anything from worn tiles, broken grout, to a failing waterproof membrane. Once we know what’s causing the leak, we fix it with the right solution for your Merewether home, replacing membranes, resealing, or repairing tiles, so your balcony stays dry and safe.
