One of the best defenses against extensive water damage is knowing how to spot a leak. If you notice a leak soon enough, you can take action and avoid costly repairs.

Some common signs to look for when searching for a water leak include:

• A sudden spike in your water bill
• Mold growth on your walls or ceiling
• The sound of rushing water in your walls
• Cold spots on the walls or floor

• Meter testing– This method involves using a special tool to measure the water pressure in your pipes. The pressure is compared against a healthy pipe to determine if there is a leak.
• Infrared cameras– We use advanced infrared cameras to search the pipe for leaks, oftentimes with immediate feedback.
• Hydrostatic testing– We will insert an inflatable ball into the main line. Once the ball has been inflated, we will pour water into the line and monitor the water level to determine if there is a leak.
• Dig and drill– By far the most invasive technique, this is very effective when we already have a good idea of where the leak is. As the name implies, we dig and drill into your walls or floor to expose the leak. This method is best for quick repairs.

A leak in your house can cause significant damage to your floors, walls, and valuables. Even a minor water leak can lead to the growth and spreading of mold in your home. To avoid unexpected issues, as soon as you detect a water pipe leak or some other cause for flooding, it’s time to call a professional.

As soon as you detect a water leak in your home, it is critical to get it repaired as soon as possible to avoid damage to your belongings and expensive water bills.
