RESIDENTIAL WATER LEAK DETECTION
Stop Hidden Leaks Before They Drive Up Your Bill
Residential Water Leak Detection and Repairs
Unexplained water usage, a higher-than-normal municipal bill, or damp that won’t go away can point to a hidden leak.
Amptex provides residential leak detection across Johannesburg and surrounding areas, including Randburg, Sandton, Midrand, and Pretoria.

Leak Detection Protects Your Property
The Real Cost of Ignoring a Hidden Leak
A small leak can cause long-term damage when it’s left untreated, especially if it’s under a slab, inside a wall, or on an underground line.
Delaying can lead to:
Ongoing high water usage and unexpected bills
Damage to ceilings, walls, floors, and built-in cupboards
Damp, mould, and timber rot
Foundation movement or erosion in severe cases
Quick check:
If your meter runs when all taps are off, there is likely a leak on the property. Leak detection is usually the fastest way to confirm the source before any repairs are attempted.
Amptex locates the fault accurately, then advises the most practical repair approach based on access and urgency.
