An unexplained spike on the water bill, a damp patch on the floor with no obvious source, or the faint sound of running water somewhere in the walls — hidden leaks are frustrating precisely because you can't see them. Our Cortland technicians use acoustic and thermal equipment to find them without tearing into walls or floors on a guess.
Detection equipment on every Cortland truck means we don't have to guess and open drywall speculatively.
Locating the leak precisely keeps any necessary opening small and targeted rather than exploratory.
Our Cortland, IL technicians are trained specifically on detection equipment, not just general plumbing repair.
You'll see or hear the detection results and understand exactly where the leak is before deciding on repair.
These are the hidden leak scenarios we investigate most often across Cortland, IL.
Listening equipment picks up the sound of water escaping under pressure, even through concrete or behind walls.
We narrow a slab leak to a specific small area rather than an entire room.
Infrared imaging reveals temperature differences caused by escaping hot or cold water behind walls and under floors.
We locate the actual leak point, which is often not directly behind the visible water stain.
Pressure testing and specialized equipment locate leaks in pool plumbing and irrigation lines that waste significant water.
We check for common culprits — running toilets, slab leaks, irrigation issues — starting with the most likely first.
Describe the symptoms to dispatch — a wet spot, a sound, or just a rising water bill all help narrow the search.
Our Cortland, IL detection trucks carry the equipment needed for most residential and light commercial leak searches.
The leak is located and the findings explained in plain terms, along with a flat price for the necessary repair.
The identified leak is repaired, or we connect you with our repair team, and the fix is tested to confirm the leak is resolved.
