How a Local Plumber Can Assist with Leak Reports
It can be a surprise when water damage appears in your home. This is common in bathrooms or under floors. Your insurance company usually requests a detailed plumbing report.
At Jet Plus Plumbing, we offer clear and professional leak detection reports. These reports help support your insurance claim and get your home back to normal faster.
Why Is an Insurance Report Important?
If you’re making a water damage claim, your insurer needs solid proof. Our comprehensive reports include:
- A written plumbing and insurance report
- Photos of the affected area (before and after repairs)
- Details on the source and cause of the leak
- A summary of repairs completed or recommended
- Confirmation of any urgent work done on the spot (e.g., stopping a burst pipe)
These clear documents help your insurer process your claim faster. They also make sure you get the right support quickly.
Common Leak Issues We Investigate
As a local Melbourne plumber, we often help homeowners with:
- Leaking bathrooms under showers, behind vanities, or cracked tiles
- Burst pipes hidden in walls or under floors. Learn more in our blog on How to Prevent Burst Pipes During Cold Snaps.

- Leaking taps or fittings especially in older homes or rentals
Even small leaks can cause major damage over time, such as mould, rotten timbers, or high water bills. Read more on Why High Water Pressure is Not Good, as it can also lead to burst pipes and leaks.
