Explain where the water is appearing
St Kilda is in Melbourne's Port Phillip council area. For a house, unit or managed building, pinpoint whether water is at a tap, inside a cupboard, through a wall or in a common area. The place where water appears may differ from its source.
If moisture is affecting the ceiling below a bathroom or another dwelling, explain which rooms are involved and who can provide access. Mention whether the water appears during showering or continuously. Do not remove panels or enter an unsafe area to make the enquiry more detailed.
Visible leak or source still unknown?
Choose the closest description and check availability for your St Kilda, Balaclava or St Kilda West address.

Local enquiry question
What if a leak appears to be coming from another apartment?
Tell building management or the relevant property contact and explain what you can see when enquiring. Access and responsibility may need to be established before repairs. Avoid assuming the source is the upstairs fixture solely because water appears below it.
