Leak Inspections

Leak inspections are one of the best ways to reduce water waste for your home. Getting your plumbing inspected for leaks regularly can also help prevent a leak from occurring in the first place. Regular maintenance and checkups on your piping help ensure that any problems with your piping or a potential leak are noticed and repaired before a massive issue occurs.

Getting a regular inspection from a certified plumber helps keep your plumbing functioning efficiently, and it can help catch looming maintenance issues before they become expensive problems. Save time and money by trusting the trained eye of a professional plumber to handle your leak inspections.

Leak Inspections

Some of the most common issues with plumbing that end up causing leaks and requiring a repair include the following:

Damaged, broken, or worn away seals and gaskets
Worn out pipes or joints
Clogged pipes and drains
Cracked or broken fixtures
Decaying pipes or corrosion
High water pressure
Poor pipe design

At John C. Flood, we have over 100 years of professional experience offering plumbing leak detection services and repairs. Our team of skilled and licensed plumbers can handle your water leak detection and repair quickly and efficiently.

It’s so important that you work with a professional leak detection company when dealing with leak detection and repairs.

Without the right knowledge or skills required to find and fix an issue, you could end up missing the actual source of the problem or repairing the issue incorrectly, costing yourself more money in the long run.

Slab Leak Detection and Repair

Slab leak detection and repair involves the use of specialized leak detection by an experienced plumbing professional. Slab leaks occur when the pipes in the water and sewer lines beneath your home break, fracture, or explode.

Because the leak is in the pipes underground beneath the slab — not in the slab itself — the source of the leak is not visible to the untrained eye. However, there are some common indicators that your property has a slab leak:

Cracks in your walls and/or floors
The sound of running water when water isn’t being used
Mildew or moisture under flooring
High water bills
Smells of sewage

If you’re experiencing any of these signs of a slab leak in your home, it’s important that you enlist help from plumbing professionals like those at John C. Flood. Without the proper tools and experience, slab leak detection and repair services may damage your home.

Signs of a Leak

Water leak detection is most effective when it’s done early and quickly, which is why it’s important to recognize early signs of a leak.

While sometimes leaks are easy to see, here are some signs of a water leak in your home to help you find sneakier leaks:

Random or unaccounted for low water pressure
Water spots on the walls or ceiling
Peeling or blistering paint on the walls or ceiling
Sagging or warped walls or ceilings
Water-damaged flooring
Wobbly shower heads
Rusty pipes
Wet smells that linger, like mold and mildew
Visible signs of mold or mildew
Dripping sounds
Collecting water or moisture under sinks
An unexpectedly high water bill
Abnormal noises coming from your plumbing

Call a professional leak detection company any time you find physical signs of a leak or suspect a leak based on the above signs.

What to Expect During Your Visit

There are a few different methods that can be used by a professional leak detection company, to find and repair a leak, so some leak detection services can differ. Here are some possible approaches:

Acoustic Detection. This type of leak detection uses soundwaves as well as a listening device to locate water within piping and help locate a leak.
Pressure/Flow Monitoring. This water leak detection method measures the changes in hydraulic readings over the course of a bit of time to help find a leak. While it can be very accurate, it is not used for urgent cases since it takes time to locate a leak.
Balancing Methods. This approach to leak detection simply means visually checking for leaks or paying attention to any change in water throughout the home.

Beyond these tests, there are multiple other kinds of pipeline tests that a professional leak detection company can try on your pipes, depending on what kind of equipment they have.

Expect your plumber to check all your toilets, showers, faucets, pipes, water lines, and sewer line when performing a leak inspection.

Providing Comfort to Families for over 120 Years

The plumber and electrician they sent were knowledgeable, professional, and equally as important, full of integrity. While they presented various options, they did not try to sell me something that I did not need. I would highly recommend them, the company has come a long way and I appreciate the service men they sent.

The technician helped me with my water heater. He researched the part that is needed, order it and I truly hope to see him again on the install soon. He was very knowledgeable and extremely helpful!!!

I have used John C. Flood for plumbing issues 3 times now. Each time, they're very responsive and reasonably priced. Each time, my technician has been Harry Hudson. He has done excellent work for me. Highly recommend the company and the technician!

I had an issue at my rental property over the weekend. John C Flood is a life saver! They sent someone out right away and he was knowledgeable, friendly and worked quickly for our guests. I will be using them again.

I cannot speak highly enough of John C. Flood and specifically Dale Jr. He has repaired my system twice in a moment of crisis and has gone above and beyond to make sure we are happy with the outcome. He takes the time to explain the situation and lays out all the options and processes so clearly so I feel comfortable with what he is doing. The company is excellent at sending people in a timely matter.
