Leak Detection
Leak detection in Tampa Bay can easily be handled by the pros at The Drain Team®. We have experience throughout the Tampa, St. Petersburg, Clearwater, and Hudson areas in all types of buildings, both commercial and residential.
Do you know about or suspect a leak in your water pipe?
Is your water bill suspiciously creeping up over the last few months?
Do you hear water running or dripping in certain places you don’t think you should?
Are there puddles actually appearing on the floor or in cabinets?
A positive answer to any of these questions means there is most likely a leak somewhere in your plumbing system and you should have it checked out immediately. It probably won’t just go away and the sooner you fix it, the greater chance you have of avoiding larger expenses.
How Do We Detect Water Leaks
Our large fleet of trucks is extensively equipped with all the latest technology to detect water leaks wherever they are. We have several methods to find the leak in your home or commercial building. We can trace all the lines in the house in order to isolate the section the leak is taking place. We have ultrasonic leak detectors that magnify the sound within walls and under floors. If the sound isn’t loud enough to pinpoint, another method we use is to close off the ends of the pipes then inject carbon dioxide under high pressure. This usually produces a hissing sound that we can more easily detect. We can usually find the leak’s location within a foot.
These advanced methods reduce the possible damage necessary to access the broken pipe and makes the repair more efficient.
Depending on the nature and location of the problem, we can replace the connection or pipe section or reroute it. If your system is old and prone to further failure, we can repipe the entire building.
