With the help of acoustic detection tools and thermal imaging cameras, we can track down the way how water is moving through drywall and below the concrete slab without causing any damage to your home. In a matter of minutes, we will identify the exact location of the crack or fitting problem for you. We will give you an honest assessment of the situation and the quote as well.
Signs You May Have a Hidden Water Leak
If you detect a leaking pipe in time, you will be able to save thousands of dollars on repairs. Water goes through the line of least resistance. So the leaking pipe may well not be in the vicinity of the water-stained area of your ceiling at all. You have to be extremely careful when you notice the signals that your house gives out. These are often overlooked until a pipe burst occurs. These are the signals to look out for:
Water Bill Increases Suddenly: It involves checking whether there is an increase in your utility bills relative to the previous year at the exact same time. If there is any significant change, then it is evident that you have water running consistently in one place.
Whispering Sounds: You will probably experience a whispering sound in your house while all the water pipes are closed.
Moisture in your Yard: There should be a puddle in the ground if there is a leakage of the underground water pipes.
Earthy Smell: Water contains mildew easily because of its stagnant nature. An earthy smell inside your home is evidence that something is damp.
Hot Area in the Basement Floor: This involves warm spots in the floor of the basement, which may imply leakage of hot water pipes.
Pressure Loss: You could find the shower head losing pressure due to leaks.
Our Leak Detection Services
We do things the smart way. First, our plumbers pinpoint the problem spot without us even picking up the tools. We do all of this to avoid unnecessary hassle for you and cut down on the price of repair overall. Our leak detection services are available in all precise forms:
Acoustic Leak Detection: The use of super-sensitive listening discs to detect leaking pressurized water. This is very effective especially for underground piping that is covered in concrete or any other type of cover.
Thermal Imaging Inspection: We have the equipment required to detect thermal imbalances. Using infrared imaging, we can easily trace the route of either a hot or cold water leakage without tearing up your drywalls at all.
Video Camera Inspection: We insert specially made fiber optic camera probes in your drain lines. We can see in real time on the hi-definition monitor any cracks and tree root invasions in your drain line.
Meter Testing: Through extensive water pressure tests, we are able to verify the existence of an underground water leakage in your property.
Soil Probing: Safe probing of the soil around your property water pipes for underground water accumulation points.
