Leak detection in Eatonton, GA

Ultrasonic equipment picks up the sound of water escaping under pressure, and locating tools trace the pipe route. Together they narrow the leak to a small area so repairs stay small.

Yes. If your pump cycles when no water is being used, there is likely a leak between the pressure tank and the fixtures, or in the line from the well. We can track it down.

Yes. Once we find it, we can repair the pipe, reroute it, or replace the line, depending on what makes the most sense for your home.

Leak detection is diagnostic work, so we price it up front before we start. The cost depends on the size of the system and how hard the leak is to isolate. Finding the leak accurately often saves far more in unnecessary demolition.

Watch for a water meter that moves with everything off, a higher water bill, running water sounds in walls or floors, warm spots on the floor, damp or soft flooring, new cracks, or a wet spot in the yard over the water line.

Turn off every faucet and appliance that uses water, then watch the meter. If the dial or the small leak indicator moves, water is escaping somewhere. You can also note the reading, use no water for an hour and check it again.

Ultrasonic equipment picks up the sound of water escaping a pressurized pipe, even through concrete, walls and soil. Combined with pipe locating, it narrows a leak down to a small area before anything is opened.

Yes. A slow leak inside a wall, under flooring or beneath a cabinet keeps materials damp, which is what mold needs to grow. Finding and fixing leaks early protects both the structure and the air in your home.

A running toilet, a dripping fixture, an irrigation leak or a break in the service line are the most common causes, and a toilet can leak silently into the bowl. If the meter moves with everything off, call us to find the source.

Put a few drops of food coloring in the tank and wait 15 minutes without flushing. If color shows up in the bowl, the flapper is leaking. A toilet that refills on its own between uses is another sign.

Yes. We trace the pipe route and listen for the leak with detection equipment, so only a small area at the source is opened instead of guessing.

Yes. We locate leaks on irrigation pipes and service lines in the yard. A soggy spot that never dries, or a meter that moves when the sprinklers are off, are common clues.

Yes. We pinpoint leaks on hot and cold supply lines under the slab, then go over your repair options. See slab leak repair.

One pinhole leak can be repaired. Repeated pinhole leaks usually mean the pipe is wearing out from the inside and more will follow. At that point a whole-house repipe is often the better value.

Water is moving through a pipe somewhere it should not be: a running toilet, a leak in a wall or under the slab, or a break in the service line. Check the toilets first, then call us to find it.

Many leaks are located in a single visit. Intermittent leaks, more than one leak, or very large properties can take longer. We explain what we are testing as we go.

Age and corrosion, high water pressure, worn fittings, freezing, ground movement around buried lines and failing materials like polybutylene are the most common causes. Well water with low pH can also wear on copper over time.

Yes. Pressure that runs too high strains pipes, fittings, valves and appliances. Many homes on city water use a pressure reducing valve to keep pressure in a safe range. We can test your pressure and replace a failed valve.

Yes, we provide gas line leak detection and repair. If you smell gas, leave the house first and call your gas company or 911 from outside. Once it is safe, call us. See gas lines.

Yes. We provide leak detection across Putnam County, Lake Oconee, Greensboro, Madison and Milledgeville. See our service areas.
