Hidden Leaks or Rusty Water in Petaling Jaya?
Air Selangor bill spikes from leaks under the porch
The bill doubles with no change in usage, yet nothing is dripping inside the house.
Why it happens here: In sections built from the 1950s to the 1970s, such as Section 14 and SS2, the supply pipe from the meter often runs under the porch and is decades old. Air Selangor is only responsible up to the meter, so that buried run is for the owner to find and fix.
How we fix it: Our water leak detection visit starts with a meter test, then traces the buried line acoustically so only a small section of porch is opened before re-piping.

A burst pipe after midnight
Close the main stopcock at your meter and call the 24/7 line. We stop the water first, then quote the permanent repair.
A water bill that suddenly jumped
A running toilet or a concealed pipe is the usual culprit. Leak detection finds it without trial-and-error hacking.
A ceiling stain that keeps coming back
We test the roof, the pipes and the waterproofing so the real source gets fixed, not just the stain.
Choked toilets and floor traps
Cleared mechanically, not with harsh chemicals, then we check the trap and line so the choke stays gone.

Local Re-Piping Knowledge You Can Trust
Petaling Jaya began in 1952, and its older sections show their age underground. In SS2, Section 14 and Section 17, original galvanised iron supply lines cause rusty water, low pressure and hidden leaks under porches and driveways.
Air Selangor bill spikes are one of the most common reasons homeowners here call us. Pipes on the house side of the meter belong to the owner, so we confirm the leak with a meter test, trace it acoustically and only open what we must.
We reach Kelana Jaya and Taman Megah via the Federal Highway and the LDP, and condos along the LRT Kelana Jaya Line get the same team for bathroom seepage and booster pumps.

Petaling Jaya Plumbing FAQs
Local answers for homeowners, landlords and tenants.
Why does my SS2 house get rusty water?
SS2 was first built in the 1970s, and many homes still have original galvanised iron pipes that rust from inside. If the water clears after a minute of running, your pipes are the likely cause. We survey and replace only the runs that are failing.
My water bill doubled. What should I check?
Close every tap and watch the Air Selangor meter for 30 to 60 minutes. If the dial moves, there is a leak. Air Selangor can also log your usage with a smart meter for three days. Running toilets and underground pipes are the usual causes, and we can pinpoint which.
Which Petaling Jaya sections do you cover?
All of them, including SS2, Section 14, Section 17, Kelana Jaya and Taman Megah, as well as neighbouring Damansara and Subang Jaya.
Will you dig up my whole porch to fix an underground leak?
No. We trace the leak first so only a small section is opened. For badly corroded lines, laying a new HDPE pipe along a better route can be the longer-lasting option.
How much does a plumber charge here?
A call-out begins with a RM30 diagnosis, dropped once you say yes to the repair. Standard jobs typically cost RM80 to RM500, while leak detection and re-piping are quoted after inspection.
Is there a 24-hour plumber for Petaling Jaya?
Yes. Call +6010-526 0000 any time for a burst pipe or flooding, and close the stopcock at your meter while we come in via the Federal Highway or the LDP.
Still have a question?
Send us a photo of the problem on WhatsApp and we will tell you what it likely is and what it costs to check.
