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?

What’s Causing Your Plumbing Leak?

There are a few common sources of plumbing leaks, but that doesn’t mean they’re easy for homeowners to find. There may, however, be a handful of small symptoms you can watch out for. This includes things like a sudden increase in your water meter reading reflected in your monthly bills, damp spots in areas of your home, the sound of rushing water when no appliances are on, or even wet spots in the yard indicating sewer line damage. Should you notice any of these symptoms, it’s worth a call to our Havertown, PA service professionals. We’ll be able to find the source of the leak or even rule out this possibility. We also provide sump pump services to protect your basement from flooding. It’s always better to be safe than sorry!

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!
