Leak Detection FAQs FAQs

 

Water leaks foster mold growth, weaken structural material and may damage your personal possessions. A Significant water leak leaves a hard-to-miss disaster behind. Minor leaks can be just as devastating because the damage may not be apparent or immediate. This makes it harder to know if your property is affected by a leak. 

Do you suspect your home is experiencing a water leak, but you want to know for sure? Take a minute to read through some of these leak detection services FAQs. Find out how we detect leaks, what signs you should be looking for, and when you should act. 

What Causes Leaks?

One thing all homeowners and businesses should know is that any property can experience a leak regardless of age. With that being said, one common reason properties experience leaks is due to the age of their pipes. Age leads to corrosion and rusting, which means your pipes are more susceptible to leaking.
Another reason for water leaks is extreme temperature changes. Cold weather can cause water in your pipes to freeze and expand. The extra pressure caused by the expanded water can crack your pipes. That’s why you should let water drip from a faucet in your home when temperatures approach freezing. Other water leaks causes include:

  • Excessively high water pressure
  • Improper pipe installation
  • Soil conditions
  • Tree roots

What Are the Signs of Hidden Leaks?

Outside of seeing water gushing out of your pipes, what are some other ways you can tell you have a water leak in your home or business? Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Unusually high utility bills
  • Water pooling on the floors
  • Your yard is sinking in some areas
  • The water meter marker moves even when the water is off
  • Unexplained potholes in the yard

How Is Leak Detection Done?

Our team detects leaks in your property using various techniques and tools. We’ll use imaging cameras, in-wall cameras, and air quality testing equipment to find the exact cause and location of the leak. This equipment allows us to detect leaks in your property’s foundation, roof insulation, and other hard-to-see areas. 

Why Is Leak Detection Important?

Water leak detection can help you avoid disaster. Even if the only consequence you experience is a high water bill, water leak detection is the first step to identifying a problem before it gets exponentially worse. Give us a call any time, any day of the week, at  813-635-0303 for water leak detection services.

How Accurate Is Leak Detection?

Accuracy is a key component to leak detection. Some materials and conditions can affect the accuracy of our leak detection equipment. For example, a pipe leak buried under five feet of compact soil may be harder to detect than a pipe five inches deep. That’s why our experienced specialists use a combination of techniques and tools to pinpoint leaks.

Is It Safe To Ignore a Water Leak if It Causes No Harm?

Let’s say you’re noticing a higher-than-usual utility bill which may indicate your experience of a water leak. At the same time, you don’t see any damage to your property. Do you need to act?
The answer is a resounding yes.
Just because you can’t see the damage doesn’t mean it won’t come back to bite you. Small leaks left unchecked will cause more and more destruction and deterioration. It can also set up the potential for dangerous amounts of mold growth. Handling the problem early on means you’re saving yourself from massive headaches and repair/restoration bills.
