    Cairns professional and pleasant leak detection specialist. After a whopping $1k water bill 3 days after xmas too, we quickly turned off mains and phoned him. Torential wet season too, so had to wait for a clear pocket so he could use his tools to hear pipes clearly. Fast, reliable and excellent communicator. Thanks again Tyron. Regards Sarah

    My plumber couldn’t find where the leak was coming from so recommended Kara leak detection. He did pressure testing and heat detection with his camera. He found no internal wall leak so we eventually identified where the problem was. That was very reassuring Tyron was very professional and prompt. Highly recommended

    Tyron is awesome! I called him late in the arvo when I got the leak notification from council and he was promptly here the next morning 8am. He found the leak and was able to repair it himself. He was very knowledgable and professional. Will most certainly use Kara Leak Detection again if required. Thanks again!!!

    Tyron was great to work with from start to finish. He travelled to gordonvale, was on time, no cancellations and fixed our leak in minimum time. Would highly recommend.

Frequently asked questions

How much do plumbers typically charge?
Plumbing costs vary significantly depending on the type of job and its complexity. Simple fixture repairs are generally much less than jobs involving pipe replacement, excavation or gas appliance work. Most quotes include a call-out fee, hourly labour and parts, with after-hours or emergency attendance usually attracting higher rates. This page shows live pricing for jobs in your area.
Do plumbers charge call-out fees?
Call-out fees are common and are often used to cover travel and the initial assessment. Plumbers typically add hourly labour and any materials or replacement parts to the call-out fee. After-hours, weekend or emergency attendances are usually charged at higher rates and some small jobs may have a minimum charge.
Do plumbers need a licence in Australia?
Yes. Plumbing work must be carried out by a licensed plumber in every Australian state and territory, and in NSW the regulator is NSW Fair Trading (Building Commission NSW). Plumbers will generally provide their licence number and should be able to supply compliance certificates for regulated work. Look for an ABN, public liability insurance and relevant industry memberships as additional trust signals.
