An unexplained spike on the water bill, a damp patch on the floor with no obvious source, or the faint sound of running water somewhere in the walls — hidden leaks are frustrating precisely because you can't see them. Our Powhatan technicians use acoustic and thermal equipment to find them without tearing into walls or floors on a guess.
We use listening equipment and thermal imaging to locate leaks through walls, floors, and slabs without demolition.
Locating the leak precisely keeps any necessary opening small and targeted rather than exploratory.
Every technician performing detection work carries full licensing and liability coverage.
You'll see or hear the detection results and understand exactly where the leak is before deciding on repair.
From a rising water bill with no visible cause to a damp spot that keeps returning, we locate the source before recommending repair.
Listening equipment picks up the sound of water escaping under pressure, even through concrete or behind walls.
We narrow a slab leak to a specific small area rather than an entire room.
Infrared imaging reveals temperature differences caused by escaping hot or cold water behind walls and under floors.
We locate the actual leak point, which is often not directly behind the visible water stain.
Pressure testing and specialized equipment locate leaks in pool plumbing and irrigation lines that waste significant water.
An unexplained increase in water usage gets investigated systematically to find the hidden cause.
A quick call gets a detection specialist scheduled, often same-day.
A technician arrives with acoustic and thermal detection equipment ready to survey the affected area.
The leak is located and the findings explained in plain terms, along with a flat price for the necessary repair.
Detection and repair are backed by a written warranty on the diagnosis and any repair performed.
