Signs of a hidden leak include unexplained increases in water bills, damp or discolored spots on walls or ceilings, musty odors, the sound of running water when taps are off, or unusually lush patches of grass in your yard. If you notice any of these signs, it's best to call us for a professional inspection to prevent potential water damage.
We use several non-invasive techniques to locate leaks accurately. These include acoustic leak detection, which uses sensitive microphones to listen for the sound of leaking water; thermal imaging cameras to detect temperature differences caused by leaks; and moisture meters to identify damp areas. For pipe leaks, we also use tracer gas detection. These methods allow us to pinpoint leaks without unnecessary damage to your property.
The duration of a leak detection service can vary depending on the size of your property and the complexity of the plumbing system. For a standard residential property, we can usually complete a thorough inspection within 1-2 hours. More complex cases might take longer. Once we locate the leak, we'll provide you with a detailed report and recommend the best course of action for repairs.
