Professional Water Leak Detection Services
Calling Bert Black for professional water leak detection is a smart move when you suspect plumbing troubles. It’s difficult to nail down the exact location of a hidden leak. Our plumbers use professional location tools to find the source. That way, they can cut into the wall right where the leak is located without guessing and making unnecessary cuts. We use advanced tools and offer lasting repairs for leaks.
Signs of Hidden Water Leaks
Hidden water leaks can start small, which makes them difficult to detect. You won’t see the water dripping since the pipes are hidden behind walls or floors, but you might notice changes in your plumbing system. Never ignore those signs. Waiting allows the leak to get worse and cause more water damage behind the walls.
Signs of a water leak include:
- Lower water pressure
- Higher water bills
- Increased moisture or mustiness
- Mold growth
- Dripping or rushing water sounds
- Wet patches in the lawn
Advanced Leak Detection Methods
Finding a leak quickly and accurately often requires special tools that plumbers use. Acoustic listening devices allow your plumber to hone in on the sound of water flowing through pipes, while infrared thermal imaging helps them detect moisture in your walls or ceilings.
Other options include tracer gas, pressure testing, and video inspections. The team at Bert Black will use the most effective leak-detection methods for your situation and develop a plan for long-lasting repairs.
