What are the Signs of a Water Leak?

Water leaks can be difficult to identify and even harder to fix. While some signs are easy to spot, others can be hidden for several days before you realize a problem. Common signs of a water leak include

• A sudden increase in your water bill
• Decreased water pressure
• Musty odors
• Wet or damp floors or carpet
• Visible drips or puddles
• Mold growth

These problems only worsen over time. Don’t let a water leak cost you thousands of dollars. Contact Cardinal Plumbing, Heating & Air to get water leak repair you can count on.

Our Process for Fixing Water Leaks in Your House

Cardinal plumbers utilize advanced water leak detectors to locate and seal leaks anywhere in your plumbing system. Our solutions include

• Electronic leak detectors: We use sound or vibration to locate the source of a leak.
• Infrared cameras: Infrared cameras can detect temperature changes in pipes, which can indicate a leak.
• Pressure gauge: Our plumbers can use a pressure gauge to measure changes in water pressure, which can indicate a leak.
• Moisture meters: Cardinal uses water leak sensors, which can detect the presence of moisture in walls, floors, and ceilings, indicating a leak.
• Tracer gas: Plumbers can use tracer gas, such as helium, to detect leaks in pipes by tracing the movement of the gas.
• Visual inspection: Our plumbers have the skill and experience to visually inspect pipes and joints to look for signs of leaks, such as corrosion or cracking.
