Our Plumbers Can Find the Source of Any Leak in Your Home

Even small leaks can cause considerable amounts of damage to your Carbon County home. At Andreas, we can use several methods to find leaks of any size in your home, no matter how well they’re hidden. Our leak detection techniques include:

• Physical inspections: Sometimes, small signs like damp spots, stains, soft wood, or chipped paint can lead us to the source of the leak.
• Thermal imaging: Leaking water is often a different temperature than surrounding materials. In these cases, a thermal imaging or infrared camera can spot the leaks below, above, or behind finished surfaces.
• Pressure testing: By isolating sections of the plumbing system with valves, the system can be pressurized and monitored for pressure losses to narrow down the source of the leak.
• Sound amplification: Plumbing leaks are often accompanied by noises, from the slow dripping of a small leak to high-pressure sprays or high-volume flows. With specialized acoustic equipment, we can amplify these sounds and trace the source of the leak.
• Pipe cameras: In larger drain and sewer pipes, a camera can be inserted to inspect the interior of the pipe for crushed sections, cracks, or other damage.

Leaks from your home’s pipes, water heater, or sewer line can cause extensive damage if left ignored.

The Dangers of Water Damage

If your home suffers water damage due to a plumbing leak, it’s important to have it repaired right away. This may mean stripping out and replacing materials like drywall, carpeting, and insulation, cleaning and disinfecting your home, treating it to prevent mold growth, and replacing damaged structural components like studs or beams.

Any amount of water damage can destroy porous materials like carpet and drywall, leading to mold growth, which can have serious health consequences.

Wet wood can encourage pest infestations like carpenter ants or termites. If left long enough, rotting wood components like beams, floor joists, and wall studs can compromise your home’s structural integrity. Cleanup and repair costs can be high if the damage is severe enough.
