Professional Leak Detection Methods

Our technicians employ various advanced techniques to accurately detect leaks within your plumbing system while causing minimal disruption to your home. One of the primary methods we use is acoustic leak detection, where our trained technicians listen for the sound of water escaping through pipes. By identifying these tell-tale sounds, we can pinpoint the leak's location without excavating your property. This method is not only effective but also non-invasive, preserving the integrity of your home while providing quick and reliable results.

Additionally, we utilize thermal imaging technology to detect leaks that may be hidden behind walls or under floors. This innovative approach allows us to visually identify temperature changes in your plumbing system, revealing areas where water may be escaping. 

By combining acoustic methods with thermal imaging, we can efficiently assess your plumbing system and locate all potential leaks. Once we've identified the problem areas, we will discuss our findings with you and recommend the best course of action to resolve the issues quickly.

Common Places We Find Water Leaks

Leaks can often occur in various parts of your home, and being aware of common leak locations can help you catch issues early.

Our leak detection team frequently finds leaks: 

  • Under sinks: Pipes connected to sinks are prone to leaks due to wear and tear, especially if there are frequent temperature changes.
  • Around toilets: Toilet seals can degrade over time, leading to leaks at the base that are often unnoticed until damage occurs.
  • In basements: Cracks in foundation walls or faulty interior plumbing can result in water leakage, particularly during heavy rains.
  • On exterior hose bibs: Outside faucets can freeze in the winter, causing cracks and leaks when thawed.
  • Behind walls: Plumbing that runs behind walls is susceptible to leaks, often going undetected until serious damage develops.
  • Around water heaters: Age and sediment build-up can lead to leaks around the tank, necessitating prompt attention.

By keeping an eye on these areas and knowing what symptoms to look for, you can help prevent minor leaks from turning into major headaches. 

We offer 24/7 leak detection solutions to customers in Santa Barbara, Santa Maria, Lompoc, Carpinteria, and the surrounding areas. Call us at (805) 516-5590 or contact Lewis Plumbing online today!
