What Causes Hidden Water Leaks?

In residential and commercial systems alike, hidden leaks generally stem from a handful of common sources. Those include:

Corrosion: Given enough time, pipes face rust and other corrosive forces that bring on cracks, holes, and loose connections.
Freezing: Water expands while freezing and can burst or crack a pipe, which starts leaking the moment it thaws.
Clogs: From hair to cooking grease, debris clogs pipes over time, and the resulting pressure can rupture them.
Intrusions: Tree roots are a constant threat to underground utilities, given how readily they grow into pipes.
High water pressure: A failed water pressure regulator can release high-pressure jets that wear down your pipes.
Improper installation: Plumbing that wasn’t installed properly is prone to loose connections and other leak-causing flaws.

Understanding Leak Detection Tools

At Waterfront Plumbing, our well-practiced technicians rely on the latest technology to find leaks in the affected areas. Get in touch, and our leak detection process covers:

Acoustic Leak Detection

Specialized listening equipment raises the sound of water escaping from a pipe. That allows us to pinpoint leaks concealed behind walls, under floors, or in the ground.

Electronic Leak Detection

Electronic sensors monitor the changes in pressure and conductivity across your plumbing system. They identify precisely where a hidden leak lies, no excavation involved.

Thermal Leak Detection

Infrared thermal imaging flags the temperature swings that leaking water creates, helping us trace dampness tucked behind surfaces and areas already harmed by water.

In a day when others don't even answer the phone, this is unheard of.
