Leak Detection Methods
We use a series of leak detection methods. The most popular detection methods include:
Meter detection: By testing the water pressure in your pipes and comparing it to the water pressure in a healthy pipe, we can determine if there is a leak present.
Infrared cameras: Using highly specialized infrared cameras, we take photos of your pipes from several directions. This way, we can see exactly where the leak is located and how severe it is.
Dig and drill: This is the most basic method. It involves removal of concrete, digging and drilling into your floor or walls to expose the pipe that is leaking. On completion of work, we will repair any foundation removed back to rough grade. This method works best if we already have an idea of where the leak is located
