comprehensive leak assessment & General Plumbing solutions
Leaks and moisture issues can originate from a variety of sources, and accurately identifying the root cause is essential to prevent ongoing damage and unnecessary repairs. With professional leak assessment solutions, both visible and hidden moisture issues can be properly diagnosed, avoiding misinterpretation and recurring problems.
At Fire-Fox, we provide advanced leak assessment solutions using specialised diagnostic technology combined with extensive practical expertise, ensuring that both pressurised plumbing leaks and non-pressurised moisture intrusion are correctly identified for targeted and effective remediation.
Advanced Diagnostic Technology
Our in-house services
- Water leak detection
- Gas leak detection
- Moisture meter analysis

- Plumbing repairs on all levels (water and/or drainage reticulation)
Why Fire-Fox?
What sets us apart
Standard leak detection equipment is designed to locate pressurised plumbing failures. While effective in those scenarios, it is often unable to identify non-pressurised leaks causing moisture issues due to probable underlying structural flaws such as:
- Failed or missing damp-proof membranes
- Rising damp and capillary moisture migration
- Drainage or ground moisture intrusion
When equipment cannot identify a pressurised leak, reports are frequently marked as inconclusive, leaving these underlying causes unresolved.
When structural flaws are identified Fire-Fox can provide effective remedial solutions through close collaboration with specialist industry experts. This allows for targeted engineering-level interventions that address the root cause of the issue and significantly reduces the risk of reoccurrence, repeat claims and unnecessary costs.
With over 30 years of building science knowledge combined with hands-on construction and plumbing field experience, we can:
Distinguish between active plumbing leaks and structural moisture ingress
Interpret moisture patterns which instruments alone can’t explain
Identify the true source of moisture before forced drying and building reinstatement commences.
Provide clear evidence-based conclusions suitable for technical review
Ensure that forced drying is targeted, efficient and not compromised by unresolved moisture ingress sources
