Detecting a water leak requires advanced technology and expertise. At 24/7 SERVICE PROS, we use reliable methods to quickly find leaks in walls, pipes, slabs, and even underground systems. Our leak detection methods include:

1. Thermal Imaging :  We use infrared thermal cameras to detect temperature changes caused by water leaks, allowing us to scan walls, ceilings, and floors for hidden issues.
2. Moisture Meters:  Moisture meters help us measure moisture levels in materials like drywall, wood, and flooring, which can reveal hidden leaks.
3. Pressure Testing: We isolate sections of the plumbing system and pressurize the pipes with air or water to detect drops in pressure, which indicate leaks.
4. Acoustic Leak Detection:  By using specialized microphones and listening devices, we listen for the sounds of water escaping pipes, allowing us to pinpoint the exact location of the leak.

Leaks often present themselves in subtle ways before causing major damage. Look out for these warning signs:

• Water Staining:  Check for water stains, drips, or puddles around sinks, toilets, dishwashers, and washing machines.
• Unusual Water Usage: A sudden spike in your water bill or unusual readings from your water meter can indicate a hidden leak.
• Acoustic Noises: Dripping or hissing sounds may suggest water is escaping from pipes behind walls or under floors.
• Damp & Musty Odors: A musty smell, particularly in basements or crawl spaces, could signal hidden water or moisture accumulation.
• Mold Growth: Mold and mildew thrive in damp environments. Their presence in places like bathrooms or under sinks can indicate a water leak.

We offer comprehensive leak detection services for various types of water leaks:

• Slab Leak & Repair:  These leaks occur beneath the concrete foundation of a property, often hidden and difficult to detect without specialized tools.
• Pipe Leak:  Leaks can occur in water supply lines, drain pipes, or sewer lines, causing water damage and requiring professional repairs.
• Roof Leak: Roof leaks penetrate roofing materials, leading to ceiling stains, mold growth, and insulation damage.
• Basement Leak: Water leaks in basements can result from cracks in the foundation, poor drainage, or high water pressure.
• Ceiling leak: This is caused by roof leaks or plumbing issues on the upper floors. Ceiling leaks result in water stains and damage to ceilings and fixtures.
• Wall Leak:  Water infiltrates the walls of the building, leading to structural damage and mold growth.
• Crawl Space Leak:  Leaks in crawl spaces can result from high humidity, plumbing issues, or poor ventilation, often leading to mold and foundation problems.
• Sewer Leak: These leaks can cause foul odors and health hazards, requiring immediate repair to prevent contamination.
• Gas Line Leak: Gas leaks are hazardous and require immediate attention for safety reasons.
• Water Heater Leak: Leaks in water heaters can cause water damage and pose electrical hazards if the system is electric.
