Leak Detection & Repair

Unexplained increases in your water bill often indicate hidden leaks. Other warning signs include the sound of running water when nothing is on, wet spots on walls, floors, or ceilings, musty odors indicating hidden moisture, warm spots on floors (hot water line leaks), and cracks in your foundation. Even small leaks can cause significant damage over time.

Professional leak detection uses technology to find leaks without destructive exploration. Acoustic listening devices amplify the sound of water escaping pipes. Thermal imaging cameras detect temperature differences from water infiltration. Pressure testing identifies leaks in the system. Video pipe inspection shows exactly where problems exist inside your pipes.

Once located, leaks are repaired based on their type and location. Accessible pipe leaks are repaired or sections replaced. Slab leaks may be repaired by accessing through the floor, rerouting pipes around the slab, or epoxy pipe lining. Wall leaks require opening the wall for access but are straightforward repairs. The repair method depends on leak location, pipe material, and cost considerations.
