FAQs About Leak Detection: How Much Does Leak Detection Cost?

SCHEDULE YOUR INSPECTION

Frequently asked questions (FAQs) about leak detection:

Leak detection is the process of identifying and locating leaks in plumbing systems, HVAC systems, roofs, and other structures to prevent water damage and conserve resources.


Leak detection is important because undetected leaks can lead to water damage, mold growth, increased water bills, and structural issues. Identifying and repairing leaks promptly can prevent these problems and save money.


Common signs of a leak include unexplained increases in water bills, water stains or discoloration on walls or ceilings, musty odors, sounds of running water when no fixtures are in use, and damp or soggy spots on floors or walls.


You can detect a leak by visually inspecting plumbing fixtures, checking for water stains or discoloration, using a moisture meter to detect hidden moisture, listening for sounds of running water, and conducting a dye test to check for toilet leaks.


Do You Have a Plumbing Leak? Find Out!

A plumbing leak can sneak up on you, causing skyrocketing water bills and potential water damage. If you're noticing unusually high water usage, performing a simple meter test can help you identify if there's a leak. Here's how to do it:

  1. Turn Off All Water Sources: Ensure no water is running in your home—this includes faucets, toilets, appliances, and outdoor systems like sprinklers.
  2. Locate Your Water Meter: Find the meter, typically located outside near the curb or in a basement/crawl space.
  3. Take a Reading: Note the numbers on the meter. Pay attention to the small dial or the low-flow indicator (often shaped like a triangle or a star) for more precise leaks.
  4. Wait: Leave the water off for at least 30 minutes (or longer for more minor leaks).
  5. Recheck the Meter: If the numbers have changed or the low-flow indicator is moving, you likely have a leak.
  6. Estimate the Size of the Leak: If your meter measures in gallons or cubic feet, the change in the reading tells you how much water was lost during the test period. Multiply this by the number of hours in a day to estimate daily water loss.

If the test reveals a leak, you can further investigate by checking common culprits like toilets, faucets, or outdoor pipes. For complex or hidden leaks, you might need to call in a professional to pinpoint and repair the problem. Catching a leak early can save you money and prevent damage to your property!


Moisture meters, infrared cameras, acoustic leak detectors, dye tablets, and pressure gauges are commonly used for leak detection.


The cost of leak detection varies depending on the complexity of the issue, the location of the leak, and the equipment and techniques used. It can range from a few hundred to several thousand dollars.


While some basic leak detection techniques, such as visually inspecting plumbing fixtures and checking for water stains, can be performed by homeowners, more advanced methods may require professional expertise and specialized equipment.


Yes, there are environmentally friendly leak detection methods, such as using non-toxic dye tablets to check for toilet leaks and employing infrared cameras to detect leaks without

requiring invasive procedures or chemicals. Additionally, proactive maintenance and repair of leaks can help conserve water resources and minimize environmental impact.
