Leak Detection in Havertown, PA
Do you know how to find water leaks? Waiting until they’ve actually caused visible damage is certainly not the answer, but how else do you know you have one? After all, leaks can form anywhere within your plumbing system, for a number of different reasons, and they’re rarely obvious when they first start. More often than not, nothing more than a very small symptom will appear to alert the average homeowner to a leak.

From standard water leaks from a faucet to thorough slab leak detection, we’re the team to call.

What’s Causing Your Plumbing Leak?
How Professional Leak Detection Works
The most common type of leak detection is video pipe inspection. This helps our professional plumbers investigate pipes such as your sewer line and any plumbing that runs underneath the foundation of your home to determine where in the system water is coming from. Infrared technology is another method used, enabling us to check between walls and ceiling panels for damp or warm spots.
Once we’ve adequately located the leak, it’s time to repair it. While it may be tempting for you to fix a leak on your own, this may only provide a temporary resolution, or you might be missing other small pinholes along the pipes that can lead to more problems later on. When you count on our pros to fix a leak, you can rest assured we’ll do everything we can to help you avoid that problem again.
Beware the Slab Leak
One type of leak where both of the above mentioned methods can come in very handy is a slab leak. Slab leaks are the worst possible kind of leak you can have, which is why professional slab leak detection is so critical. This refers to leaks that occur beneath the foundation—the slab—of your home.
They can lead to mold growth, foundation damage, and other related problems. Slab leak repair isn’t something you can tackle on your own, either—you need a trained and experienced service professional on your side. Fortunately, that’s what we’re here for!
