Water Pipe Leak Detection & Repair

Professional leak detection often begins with a visual inspection, including testing the water meter and the home’s water pressure. Some situations may call for camera inspections, and we may be able to locate leaks through those steps alone.

In cases where we can’t, we’ll employ more advanced strategies. Our team has listening devices that can help us zero in on leaks by the noise they create. Our system can even analyze the audio feedback and provide data. Leaks generate heat, and we can find them through walls using infrared sensors. We also have sensors to measure the moisture content in sheetrock and other surfaces.

Signs You Have a Plumbing Leak

Many leaks are relatively small, and you may not notice them until you get your water bill. A high bill or an alert from your water company is a clear sign you may have a leak. If you pull up old carpet and find stains, you should schedule leak detection to be safe. It’s also important not to ignore mustiness and other signs of mildew and mold. Be mindful that mold can be present in your home for weeks or longer before you ever see visual evidence.

Monitor for the signs you may have a plumbing leak:

High water bill

Noisy plumbing

Running water sounds

Reduced water pressure

Wet or stained sheetrock

Bubbling paint or wallpaper

Frequently Asked Questions About Leak Detection

If you’re dealing with a leak, you may have many questions. Here are answers to two of the most common questions our customers have.

How do plumbers detect leaks?

Plumbers often use a series of tests, including water meter and pressure checks. Beyond visual inspections, they also have access to advanced water leak detection techniques. That includes equipment that can measure thermal radiation, acoustic feedback, and moisture.

How do I find out where my water is leaking from?

Determine if you actually have a leak by turning off all water and checking the water meter. If the meter shows movement, check your appliances, toilets, and indoor and outdoor faucets. Look for wet spots and stains on ceilings, walls, and floors. You should also check your landscape for soggy patches.
