Simple process
How Leak Detection Typically Works
The exact process depends on the property and suspected source. The goal is to narrow down the likely leak location before repair decisions are made.
1. Describe the symptoms
Explain what you noticed, where it appears, and when it started. Details such as unusual water use, damp areas, running-water sounds, or outdoor water loss can help frame the problem.
2. Check the likely source
A provider may choose diagnostic methods based on the property, plumbing layout, and suspected source. The aim is to narrow the area that needs attention.
3. Discuss the next step
Once the suspected location is clearer, the provider can explain whether further testing, access, or repair is appropriate.
