Leak repair in Singapore — dripping joints, damp patches and concealed pipe runs
A joint that won't stop dripping, a damp patch that grows, or a water bill that jumped? We trace what's wet, patch it properly and quote first where a wall has to be opened.
Leaks come in two flavours: the ones you can see, and the ones you can't. Visible leaks — a dripping joint under the sink, a seeping valve, a wet patch at a pipe entry — are the straightforward ones. Concealed leaks behind a wall or under a floor take longer to confirm, so we survey first and quote before opening anything.
Bring your last two water bills to the visit if consumption has risen. That single comparison often tells us whether we're chasing a slow drip on a pipe or a running cistern that never stops.

Questions we get on this job
How do I know if it's a leak or a running cistern?
Check the water meter with everything switched off: if it still moves, something is running or leaking. A cistern that keeps refilling is the most common culprit — see toilet and cistern repair.
Will you open my wall without telling me the cost?
No. Concealed work starts with a site survey from $50 and a clear price. If opening up is needed, you approve the number first — and where the scope changes after opening, we stop and re-quote rather than carry on.
Do you repair leaks in condos and commercial buildings?
Yes, including works arranged through MCST and facilities-management contracts. Where common property or a riser is involved, we'll tell you which approvals apply before we start.
