Water leaks can often go unnoticed, hiding behind walls, under floors, or even beneath your property’s foundation.

Our expert team has the tools and knowledge to resolve any leak problem swiftly and effectively, restoring your property to its pre-damage condition.

How To Detect A Water Leak

Detecting water leaks in your property requires specialized knowledge and equipment, and at Voda Cleaning & Restoration, we use the latest methods to identify leaks quickly and accurately. Our professional leak detection team can find leaks from walls, pipes, slabs, and even underground. Here are some of the methods we use:

1. Thermal Imaging: Using infrared thermal imaging cameras, we can detect temperature differences caused by water leaks. These cameras scan walls, ceilings, and floors for anomalies that indicate hidden leaks, allowing us to pinpoint their exact location without tearing up your property.
2. Moisture Meters: We use moisture meters to measure the moisture levels in materials like drywall, wood, and flooring. Elevated moisture readings can indicate hidden water leaks, even in areas that are difficult to reach.
3. Pressure Testing: In some cases, we perform pressure testing on specific sections of your plumbing system. By pressurizing the pipes, we can detect any drops in pressure, which may signal the presence of a leak.
4. Acoustic Leak Detection: Acoustic methods involve using specialized equipment like ground microphones or listening devices to hear the sound of water escaping from pipes. Our technicians use headphones to amplify these sounds, allowing us to locate the leak precisely.

What Are The Warning Signs of a Leak?

It’s essential to be aware of the signs of a water leak in your home or business. Catching a leak early can prevent further damage and save you money on repairs. Here are some common warning signs of a water leak:

1. Water Staining: Look for signs of water stains, drips, or puddles under sinks, around toilets, or near appliances such as dishwashers or washing machines. Water spots may also form on walls or ceilings.
2. Unusual Water Usage: Check your water meter and utility bill for unusually high usage. If you’re using more water than normal but can’t identify why, you may have a hidden leak.
3. Acoustic Noises: Listen for the sound of running water, especially when no faucets or appliances are in use. Hissing or dripping sounds could indicate a hidden water leak.
4. Damp & Musty Odors: Musty or moldy smells, especially in basements or crawl spaces, can be a sign of hidden moisture caused by a leak.
5. Mold Growth: Mold and mildew thrive in damp conditions. The presence of mold under sinks, in bathrooms, or in other moist areas can indicate a water leak.

If you notice any of these signs, don’t hesitate to contact a local leak detection expert like Voda Cleaning & Restoration to inspect your property and prevent further damage.
