Professional Plumbing Leak Detection Services

Advanced leak detection technology in Rancho Cordova & Sacramento County - Find hidden leaks before they become disasters.

Jennifer from Anatolia noticed her water bill had doubled over three months, but she couldn't find any obvious leaks around her home. "I checked every faucet, toilet, and fixture I could see," she told our JK Plumbing technician. "Everything looked fine, but something was definitely wrong."

Using our advanced plumbing leak detection equipment, we discovered a hidden slab leak beneath her kitchen that had been wasting thousands of gallons monthly. "I never would have found that myself," Jennifer said after we completed the repair. "By the time I could see water damage, it would have cost me thousands in repairs." That's the value of professional water leak detection – finding hidden problems before they become disasters.

Understanding Professional Leak Detection Technology

Modern leak detection service has evolved far beyond listening for dripping sounds or looking for visible water stains. At JK Plumbing, we use advanced electronic leak detection that can locate leaks within pipes buried beneath concrete slabs, hidden behind walls, or running underground between your home and the street.

Acoustic Detection Equipment

Amplifies the sounds that water makes when escaping from pressurized pipes. Even tiny leaks create distinct acoustic signatures that our trained technicians can identify and locate precisely.

Thermal Leak Detection

Thermal cameras reveal temperature differences that indicate water movement and moisture accumulation, creating thermal patterns that identify hidden problem areas.

Common Types of Hidden Leaks

Slab Leak Detection

Water or sewer lines beneath concrete foundations with cracks or joint failures

Wall Leak Detection

Supply lines or drain pipes within wall cavities that remain hidden for months

Underground Leak Detection

Pipes between your home and street that can cause foundation settling

Fixture Connection Leaks

Leaks at connection points for toilets, sinks, tubs, and other fixtures

Signs That Indicate Hidden Leaks

Recognizing the early warning signs of hidden leaks allows homeowners to request professional detection services before minor problems become major disasters. Many signs are subtle initially but become more pronounced as leaks worsen over time.

Unexplained Water Bill Increases

Rising bills despite unchanged usage patterns indicate hidden water waste
