Leak Detection questions
What are the signs of a hidden water leak?
The most common sign of a hidden water leak is a water bill that is higher than usual. Other signs include damp or stained walls, a musty smell, mould, lifting floors, cracked tiles and the sound of running water when nothing is on. If you notice any of these, contact a licensed plumber for leak detection.
How can I check for a leak using my water meter?
Turn off every tap and water-using appliance, then read your water meter. Check it again after about 30 minutes without using any water. If the reading has changed, water is likely escaping somewhere in your pipework. Contact us and our licensed team can find the leak and repair it properly.
