Water Leak Detection in La Mirada
Water leaks can hide behind walls, under floors, and underground. You might not see them, but they can cause serious damage. A small leak can lead to mold, rotted wood, and high water bills over time.
Superior La Mirada Plumber uses modern leak detection tools to find leaks fast. We pinpoint the exact location of the leak so we can fix it with as little disruption as possible.
Signs You May Have a Hidden Leak
- Your water bill is higher than normal
- You hear water running when no faucets are on
- There are wet spots on walls, ceilings, or floors
- You see mold or mildew in unusual places
- Paint is peeling or bubbling on walls
- The water meter moves when all water is off
- There are warm spots on the floor (could be a hot water line leak)
- You smell musty odors in the home
Our Leak Detection Methods
We use several advanced methods to find leaks without tearing apart your walls or floors:
- Electronic leak detection: Sensitive listening devices that can hear water escaping from pipes behind walls and underground
- Thermal imaging: Cameras that detect temperature changes caused by water leaks behind surfaces
- Video camera inspection: Small cameras inserted into pipes to see cracks, breaks, and leaks inside the pipe
- Pressure testing: We test the pressure in your pipes to confirm if there is a leak in the system
