Leak Detection in Largo, FL

Common Places We Find & Repair Leaks

Leaks can originate from many places in and around your home. 

When performing leak detection, we pay special attention to these high-risk areas:

• Under sinks: Kitchen and bathroom sinks are frequent spots for leaks due to their constant use and multiple connection points.
• Toilets: The flapper, fill valve, and wax ring are typical sources of leaks that can be silent but significant.
• Faucets and showerheads: Worn-out O-rings, washers, and seals can lead to drips and leaks in these fixtures.
• Water heater tanks: Corrosion or sediment buildup can cause leaks at the base of water heater tanks.
• Appliance hookups: Dishwashers, washing machines, and refrigerators with ice makers or water dispensers have supply lines that can become loose or damaged.
• Pipes and joints: Over time, pipes may corrode, and joints can fail, especially in older homes, leading to leaks that may hide within walls or under flooring.
• Outdoor spigots: Leaks can occur from outdoor faucets and within irrigation systems, often exacerbated by weather changes.
• Roof and gutters: Compromised roofing materials or clogged gutters can lead to water intrusion and leaks into the attic or down the walls.
• Basement and foundation: Cracks in the basement walls or foundation can allow groundwater to seep in, particularly during wet weather.
• Radiators and heating systems: The valves and pipes can develop leaks that may go unnoticed until they cause damage.
