Water Leak Detection
Dealing with an unexplained water stain or dampness without any obvious signs can be frustrating and puzzling. That’s where our expertise shines. Our team, equipped with advanced water leak detection technologies and years of hands-on experience, employs a systematic approach to identify and resolve leaks, no matter how elusive they may seem.
From the initial pressure test to sophisticated moisture mapping, we cover all bases to ensure no stone is left unturned. Our services extend beyond simple detection; we aim to provide solutions that are not only immediate but also preventative, safeguarding against future issues and keeping repair costs to a minimum.
General Water Leak Detection
Our approach to leak detection is thorough and systematic, utilizing a range of advanced techniques and technologies. Often, a client will come to us with a mystery water stain on a wall, ceiling, or floor, and none of the usual indicators of a leak, such as a high water bill or the sound of running water.
Our technicians apply years of experience and a deep understanding of sophisticated tools to address each leak detection challenge uniquely. When addressing mystery leaks, especially in the kitchen, bathroom, HVAC, and laundry room, the process typically starts with a pressure test to either identify a pipe leak or rule one out.
Next we test all faucets and fixtures, including typical failure points like tub and shower grout, sink surrounds, toilet wax rings, ice maker lines, drain lines, and more. We conduct flow tests, hydrostatic tests, and targeted spray tests, deploying moisture meters and thermal imaging cameras to assess any water damage caused by the leak and to identify the leak’s exact location.
By pinpointing the exact source of a leak, we can offer effective, sound solutions that not only address the immediate problem but also help in preventing future issues. This approach helps ensure that repair costs are kept to a minimum.
Water Intrusion
With heavy snow or rain comes water intrusion. Failed flashings at a window, door, roof, or chimney can lie dormant until the precise set of circumstances pushes water into your home.
Sometimes, a failed roof flashing results in staining a couple rooms away, or a stain may present itself on a wall with a multitude of possible entry points: a sliding glass door, multiple windows, an upstairs patio, etc.
This is when water leak detection comes into play. Knowing there’s a leak and finding it are two different things. Rather than blindly searching for a leak, our company uses state-of-the-art water detector equipment to help you find where the water is coming from.
We always start with a pressure test to rule out the pressurized plumbing lines. Then we conduct prolonged, systematic spray-testing to reproduce a leak, followed by moisture and thermal readings, to track its source as well as the footprint of its damage.
Our systematic, non-invasive testing means minimal disruption to your home when it’s time for repairs.
