Signs You Need Water Leak Detection
Get the insight you need by exploring key signs you need water leak detection below.
- Cracked wall paint - Not every leak is going to produce a perfect water stain for everybody to see. Sometimes the leak is slight and the water pressure is just enough to crack your wall paint. If you notice any new cracks, schedule water leak detection in Los Angeles.
- The musky smell of mold or mildew - The recipe for mold is standing water in places with no ventilation which makes the inside of your walls the perfect breeding grounds should there be a leak. When in doubt trust your instincts and give a local plumber a call.
- Visible water stain - If you're lucky, the leak will be substantial enough in a place that you'll see to produce a perfectly clear water stain. In these instances, act quickly as a small problem can become a big one quickly.
- An unusually high water bill - The worst way to find out you have a leak is when you're paying for it. Not only will your water bill be substantial, but you might need mold remediation too and fix dry-wall so act fast.
- The water meter test - If you turn off your property's water and head to the water meter it should read 0. If there is still water being used when everything is turned off, contact us for water leak detection in Los Angeles.
What Is A Slab Leak?
A slab leak is a leak that occurs in the piping and water lines underneath your home’s foundation. This typically occurs when there is a break, hole or crack that develops within the pipes. As this type of leak can be hidden, it can make it difficult to notice.
How Does Slab Leak Detection Work?
Slab detection can detect a water leak in your underground plumbing system. An inflatable testing ball is placed into the main sewer line cleanout and inflated, blocking the mainline. The lines are then filled with water and observed to distinguish if the water drops at floor level. If water drops, then a leak is detected.
Common Causes Of Slab Leaks, Include:
- Damaged, deteriorating, or eroding pipes
- An increase in pressure on the pipes due to soil changes
- Pipes that were improperly installed or low in quality
Regardless of the cause, it’s best to reach out to a Las Vegas leak repair professional if you suspect you may have a leak. Neglecting a slab leak in your home can lead to major property damage.
