Hydrostatic Pressure Testing

Waikato Leak Detection Specialists

If you need accurate testing to confirm a leak in your plumbing, pool, spa, or pipework, hydrostatic pressure testing is one of the most reliable methods available. The Leak Detection Company provides clear, fast testing for homes, rentals, commercial buildings, and industrial sites across the Waikato.

We focus on finding the source of the problem quickly so you know exactly what needs fixing.

What is Hydrostatic Pressure Testing?

Hydrostatic pressure testing checks the strength and condition of pipes by filling them with water and applying controlled pressure.
If the pressure drops, it means water is escaping somewhere in the system.

It’s ideal for:

  • Pools and spas

  • Plumbing lines

  • New builds and renovations

  • Commercial pipework

  • Reticulation systems

  • Underground pipe networks

Terms & Conditions

Disclaimer – Please Read Before Engagement

This agreement outlines the terms under which The Leak Detection Company provides underground water leak detection services to the person or organisation engaging us (“you”).

You acknowledge that our services are designed to assist with the identification of potential underground water leaks and buried services. While The Leak Detection Company utilises the latest technology and industry-accepted best practices for underground leak detection, we cannot guarantee a detection survey will result in the positive location of any/all leaks. This is subject to several factors that are out of our control, including but not limited to ground conditions, external noise sources, pipe/leak depth and leak size/volume. 

No assurance can be given about the exact location of any underground leak or utility identified by The Leak Detection Company. The only way to confirm any such finding is through visual verification. (Refer: AS 5488.1.2019 – Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE), Quality Level A).

The accuracy of our detection tools and techniques can vary. Any positions or depths indicated should not be considered exact. You are responsible for confirming all positions and depths using hand digging or hydro excavation methods prior to any mechanical excavation.

The Leak Detection Company accepts no responsibility for any damage, disruption, or harm caused to underground services, or for any injury, financial loss, or other consequences resulting from such incidents—whether affecting you or any other party such as contractors, owners, customers, service providers, councils, or others. You agree to fully indemnify The Leak Detection Company against all such claims, damages, and associated costs.

If, despite the above, any liability does arise on the part of The Leak Detection Company (in contract, tort, or otherwise), that liability will be limited to the total amount paid by you for our services. We are not liable for loss of income, contracts, business opportunities, or any indirect or consequential damages.

These limitations and protections extend to all staff, agents, officers, and contractors of The Leak Detection Company.

You acknowledge that this document forms the entire agreement between you and The Leak Detection Company, and no other terms, representations, or assurances—unless documented here—are part of the agreement.
