• Higher than usual water bills
• Musty smells
• Mold or mildew growth
• Wet spots on your floor
• Sounds of running water even when no water is being used
• Low or varied water pressure
• Increased pest presence on your property

The Latest Leak Detection Technology

Our plumbers use the latest in non-invasive leak detection technology. Instead of tearing through drywall and digging up water lines to find leaks, we’ll instead rely on tools that don’t require damage to your property.

That might mean pushing gas into your pipes and detecting where it comes out, using sensitive microphones to “hear” the location of a leak, using thermal imaging to see temperature fluctuations associated with leaks, and other time-tested methods. In some situations, we might also leverage camera systems to see the inside of a pipe, especially with sewer or drain line leaks.

Water Leak FAQs

How can I prevent a water leak in my home?

Routine maintenance and addressing issues as soon as possible can help prevent leaks. Rely on our trained professionals to inspect your plumbing and monitor your water pressure.

Where should I look for leaks on my property?

Water leaks are clearer in bathrooms, sinks, walls, floors, and water fixtures. It’s important to note that not all leaks will be visible; some are hidden and will stay that way for a while. 

Do minor leaks need to be fixed?

Even tiny leaks can lead to serious water damage, mold, pests, and other problems. Most leaks will also get worse over time, meaning that tiny leak won’t be tiny forever. The sooner you identify and resolve the leak, no matter how small, the better — eventually, any leak will need to be repaired, so avoiding further damage to your property is always a sound investment.

How can I prevent leaks in my plumbing?

Leaks can result from corrosion, freezing pipes, impacts, and many other issues. That means treating your water if it’s acidic or contains corrosive minerals, insulating pipes that might freeze in cold weather, and being mindful of exposed pipes by not letting things rest against or hang off of them. Routine inspections by a trained plumber can go a long way toward making you aware of potential problems before they turn into leaks or other damage.

Can BSR Plumbing find and repair sewer and drain leaks?

Yes, a combination of normal leak-detection solutions, video camera inspections, and sewer repair and replacement strategies can resolve a leaky sewer or drain line as easily as any other pipe — easier, in some cases, since these lines can be more accessible for repair or replacement than water lines.
