Understanding where leaks most commonly occur

Leaks are often hidden from plain sight and can go undetected for long periods, leading to serious property damage. Some of the most common locations where leaks occur include:

Underground water lines

The main water line from your meter or pump to your home can develop leaks, leading to water loss and increased utility bills.

Slab leaks

Leaks beneath your home’s concrete foundation (or slab) can cause structural weakening and damage.

Interior plumbing

Leaks within walls, floors, or ceilings can lead to mould growth, water stains, and property deterioration.

Swimming pools

Pool leaks can result in excessive water loss and higher maintenance costs if not promptly addressed.

Every leak detection service includes a detailed report with photos and clear findings. This report is accepted for insurance claims and outlines exactly what repairs are needed.

These are the signs you may have a leak

A leak that goes unnoticed can cause extensive damage over time. Look out for these common warning signs:

Unexplained increase in water bills: If your water bill is climbing without an increase in usage, there could be a hidden leak.
Water meter or pump running continuously: If your water meter continues running when no water is being used, this may indicate a leak.
Sound of running water: Hearing water movement behind walls or under floors without a visible source is a strong indicator of a hidden leak.
Mould, mildew, or musty odours: Persistent dampness can lead to mould growth, which poses health risks and indicates excess moisture.
Wet spots or warm spots on floors or walls: Unexpected damp areas, hot spots, or discoloration can indicate a leak within your plumbing system.
Cracks in walls or flooring: Structural damage caused by water leaks can lead to visible cracking or warping.

If you notice any of these warning signs,

Our advanced protocols and methods

Our team uses a combination of high-tech tools and industry-proven leak detection techniques to pinpoint leaks with precision. We provide our clients with detailed, comprehensive reports that include photographic evidence, findings, and recommendations. These reports can also be used for water loss claims and insurance purposes.

Our detection methods include:

Acoustic and hydrophone leak detection

Using sophisticated listening devices, we detect leaks by isolating the distinct sounds of escaping water, distinguishing them from normal pipe activity.

Pressure testing

We assess water pressure levels to identify inconsistencies that may indicate a hidden leak.

Tracer gas detection

A non-toxic gas (5% hydrogen, 95% nitrogen) is introduced into the system. This gas escapes through leaks and is detected using specialized sensors, allowing us to locate the leak precisely.

Infrared thermal imaging

This method detects temperature changes in walls, ceilings, and floors to identify leaks in hot water lines or hidden moisture pockets.

Moisture meter analysis

When other methods are not enough, moisture meters allow us to trace excess moisture in surfaces, revealing hidden water accumulation and potential leaks.

By integrating these advanced techniques, our specialists can effectively detect leaks in various residential settings, including homes, and underground piping systems.
