What are common signs of a hidden leak?

Signs include unexplained water bills, damp or warm spots on floors, musty odors, mold growth, peeling paint, low water pressure, or the sound of running water when fixtures are off.

Can hidden leaks cause structural damage?

Yes. Undetected leaks can damage drywall, flooring, foundations, and framing, and may lead to mold growth if left unresolved.

Do hidden leaks always require opening walls or floors?

Not always. Modern leak detection methods allow us to locate leaks accurately before any cutting or excavation is needed.

Is hidden leak detection accurate?

Yes. Professional detection equipment allows leaks to be pinpointed with high accuracy, minimizing unnecessary damage to your home.

Should I fix a hidden leak immediately?

Yes. Even small hidden leaks can worsen over time and lead to significant damage and higher repair costs.
