What to Do When You Discover a Leaking Pipe
Discovering a leak can be stressful. Taking these immediate steps can help minimise the damage while you wait for our professional team to arrive:
- Shut Off the Main Water Supply: The most critical first step is to locate your property’s main water shut-off valve (often near the water meter or where the main pipe enters the house) and turn it off completely. This will stop the flow of water and prevent further flooding.
- Drain the System: Open the taps at the lowest point of your property (like a garden tap) and the highest point (like an upstairs bathroom) to drain the remaining water from the pipes.
- Manage the Water: Place buckets and towels to catch any remaining drips. If the leak is significant, move furniture, electronics, and valuable belongings out of the affected area.
- Call Us Immediately: Contact Mid West Leak Experts at 0422 125 707. The sooner you call, the sooner we can be on-site to perform a professional repair.

We are experts in diagnosing and repairing leaks in all types of plumbing systems. Our services are available for residential, commercial, and industrial properties across Orange, Bathurst, Mudgee, Cowra, Lithgow, and the entire Central West region.
Copper Pipe Leak Repair
Copper is a durable and common plumbing material, but it’s susceptible to corrosion over time, leading to pinholes and cracks. We are experts in copper pipe leak repair. Whether it’s a pinhole drip or a larger crack, we provide lasting solutions. Our copper pipe pinhole leak repair techniques focus on not just patching the problem, but assessing the overall condition of the pipe to prevent future failures.
PVC Pipe Leak Repair
Used extensively for drainage, sewer, and some water lines, PVC pipes can crack due to impact, age, or improper installation. Our technicians are skilled in PVC pipe leak repair, using professional-grade primers and cements or replacing damaged sections to ensure a permanent, watertight seal that restores the integrity of your drainage system.
Brass Pipe Leak Repair
Often found in older homes and specific fittings, brass pipes can suffer from dezincification and stress cracks. We have the experience needed for effective brass pipe leak repair, using specialised techniques and replacement parts to fix leaks and ensure the connection is secure.

Understanding the Pipe Leak Repair Cost
The pipe leak repair cost can vary depending on several key factors. We believe in being upfront with our customers about what influences the final price.
Factors include:
- Location of the Leak: A leak in an easily accessible spot (like under a sink) will cost less to repair than a pipe located behind a wall, under a concrete slab, or underground.
- Pipe Material: The cost of materials for a copper pipe leak repair will differ from that of a PVC pipe leak repair.
- Extent of the Damage: Repairing a small pinhole leak is simpler and less expensive than replacing a large section of a burst pipe and repairing the associated water damage.
- Urgency: Emergency, after-hours callouts for a burst pipe may have a different rate than a scheduled appointment for a slow drip.
We provide a detailed quote before starting any work, ensuring you have a clear understanding of the costs involved with no hidden surprises.
Pipe Leak Repair FAQs
What is the absolute first thing I should do if I discover a burst pipe in my home?
The most critical action is to shut off your property’s main water supply immediately. This will stop the flow of water and prevent catastrophic flooding and water damage. The main shut-off valve is typically located near your water meter or where the main water line enters your house. Once the water is off, call us at 0422 125 707 for emergency assistance.
Is it better to repair a single leak or replace the entire pipe?
This depends on the pipe’s overall condition, material, and age. For a newer pipe with an isolated issue, a direct water pipe leak repair is often sufficient. However, if it’s an older copper pipe showing signs of widespread corrosion or multiple pinhole leaks, replacing the entire section is a more durable, long-term solution that prevents future emergencies. Our expert plumbers will assess the situation and provide you with the most practical and cost-effective recommendation.
How much does a typical pipe leak repair cost?
The pipe leak repair cost varies based on several factors: the pipe’s location (is it easily accessible or behind a wall?), the material (e.g., copper vs. PVC), and the extent of the damage. A simple repair on an exposed pipe will cost less than a complex job requiring wall access and significant material replacement. We provide transparent, upfront quotes before any work begins so you know exactly what to expect.
Can you repair leaks in older metal pipes like copper and brass?
Absolutely. Our licensed plumbers are highly experienced in both copper pipe leak repair and brass pipe leak repair, which are common in many homes throughout the Central West.
