If you’re struggling with a kitchen sink leak, toilet leak, or slab leak, keep reading to find out how to catch problems and why routine inspection needs to be a priority for your property.
What Causes Hidden Leaks?
Leaks can be the result of catastrophic failures, but also of gradual wear and tear. Pipes might shift with soil movement, seals can wear down over time, and corrosion eats away at joints. A dripping kitchen sink can even slowly rot the wood beneath the counter, and attract mold or pests. One of the first signs of a hidden leak is a sudden spike in your water bill. If your household habits haven’t changed, and your bills have jumped sky-high, it’s time to call a plumber. Other red flags include:
- Warm spots on the floor
- Water stains on ceilings or walls
- Musty smells near the basement or crawl space
- Low water pressure
- Constantly running toilet or visible moisture around fixtures
The Tools Professionals Use to Detect Underground Leaks
Water can travel far from the source before becoming visible. Professional leak detection technicians use advanced tools to pinpoint leaks without tearing open walls or digging up your yard. Here are a few of the methods used for water leak detection:
- Acoustic listening devices: These pick up the sound of water escaping from pressurized pipes underground.
- Thermal Imaging Cameras: These help detect temperature changes behind walls or under floors caused by leaking water.
- Moisture Meters: These are used to measure how damp materials are, which is helpful when checking damage in drywall or flooring.
- Pressure Testing Equipment: This checks for drops in pressure in your plumbing system, which could be caused by a leak somewhere along the line.
With these tools, a trained plumber can identify the exact location of a slab leak, a pipe leak under your basement, or a hidden fixture issue.
