Tiny Leak, Big Problem! Hidden Water Leak Under Kitchen Sink

A homeowner noticed unusually high water bills and called Plumbdog for help. On this double-story Perth home, the leak was tiny — just 250 mL per minute — but causing major problems.

The Problem
Hidden leaks can be deceptively damaging. In this case:
•Small leak under the kitchen cupboard
•Copper pipes and sleeves feeding the sink
•Double-story access made detection tricky
Even tiny leaks like this can add up, resulting in high water bills and potential damage if left untreated.

The Investigation & Fix
Rich tackled the leak using precision tools and techniques:
•Compressed air and advanced leak detection equipment
•Carefully traced the leak without unnecessary damage
•Inspected copper pipes and sleeves feeding the kitchen sink
•Pinpointed the exact source of the tiny but tricky leak
💬 “Sometimes the smallest leaks are the hardest to find, but tracking them down saves the homeowner time, money, and stress.”

The Result
Leak located and confirmed
Minimal disruption to the kitchen area
Homeowner reassured and water bills under control
Tips provided for spotting early signs of hidden leaks
Professional detection = peace of mind and long-term savings.
