The starting point

Unexpected water use, a damp cabinet or a recurring wet patch can justify a closer look. Explain when you first noticed the change and whether it happens continuously or only when a fixture is used. The goal is to identify the source before agreeing on the repair.

Follow the evidence

Check accessible areas without opening walls or disturbing equipment: beneath sinks, around toilets and near exposed connections. Note what is wet and when. A higher bill can have several explanations, so it should be treated as a clue rather than proof of a hidden pipe leak.

Repair options depend on location and access

A leaking supply connection may be accessible, while a concealed pipe can require more investigation. Discuss how the source will be located, the plumbing work proposed and any access openings needed. Confirm whether restoration work is included or will be handled separately.

Address repeat leaks as a system question

If different sections of pipe have failed over time, bring that history to the visit. A targeted repair and a broader repiping plan solve different problems. An assessment can help you compare the scope and disruption of each approach.

Questions people ask before calling

Does a higher water bill always mean a hidden leak?

No. Changes in use, irrigation and other factors can affect consumption. A leak is one possible cause that should be investigated alongside those changes.

Will leak repair require opening a wall?

Access depends on where the leak is located. Ask what investigation and access work may be needed before repair begins.

When should I ask about repiping?

If leaks recur in several places or the pipe system has broader problems, ask whether a larger assessment would help compare repair and replacement options.
