How to Detect a Water Leak Without Destroying Your Home

Water leaks can be extremely damaging to your home if they are left undetected, but trying to find them yourself may result in even more damage. Before you send a sledgehammer through the wall searching for your water leak, consider non-invasive methods of detecting your leak. True Plumbers & AC has the tools to detect even the smallest leaks in your home.

Some of the most common indications of a water leak in your home are:

  • An increase in your water bill

  • Water meter changes


Non-Invasive Leak Detection & How it is Performed

Non-invasive leak detection is the best way to find a water issue without destroying your home. Leak detection tools help plumbers know where to repair your leak and create the least amount of damage necessary.

To start, your plumbing system is pressurized with helium or hydrogen. Using a specialized tool, we look for places in your home where the gas has escaped. This quick and easy method of detecting leaks can be used to find various leaks, including:

  • Under asphalt

  • Under concrete

  • In walls

This non-invasive method helps homeowners detect leaks that are not obvious, without ripping up floors and breaking down walls. It can be a frustrating situation for you when a water leak is in your home, but we will come in and save you money by locating and repairing your hidden leak without destroying your home.
