Not every leak announces itself with a burst pipe or a puddle on the floor. Many of the leaks we find in Bald Knob homes are hidden beneath concrete slabs, tucked inside wall cavities, or running along underground pipework between the meter and the house. An unexplained rise in your water bill, a persistently soggy patch on the lawn, or a musty smell in a particular room can all point to an undetected water leak that has been running quietly for some time.
Left unchecked, a hidden leak can undermine footings, rot timber framing, encourage mould growth and waste large amounts of water. Older copper hot water pipework is particularly prone to pinhole leaks caused by pitting, while ageing poly and galvanised lines can crack or corrode over the years. Sewer and stormwater seepage can also mimic a plumbing leak, which is why it pays to have a qualified plumber correctly identify the source before any repair work begins.
If you're seeing water meter movement when every tap in the house is off, damp ceilings below an upstairs bathroom, or usage you simply can't explain, it's worth arranging a proper leak detection inspection before the damage has a chance to spread.
Bald Knob Plumbing & Drains takes a methodical approach to leak detection, combining proven technology with genuine plumbing experience so we can locate the exact source of a leak before any repair work starts. Rather than guessing where a problem might be, our Bald Knob team uses a mix of the following techniques depending on the pipework and property type:
Once we've marked the leak, we'll walk you through what we've found and the repair options available, whether that's a straightforward patch repair, a section replacement or trenchless relining beneath a slab.
