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 Oglesby technicians use acoustic and thermal equipment to find them without tearing into walls or floors on a guess.
Detection equipment on every Oglesby truck means we don't have to guess and open drywall speculatively.
We find the leak before recommending any repair scope, which keeps costs and disruption down.
Every technician performing detection work carries full licensing and liability coverage.
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 Oglesby, IL.
Listening equipment picks up the sound of water escaping under pressure, even through concrete or behind walls.
A leak beneath a concrete slab is pinpointed using acoustic and thermal methods before any concrete is opened.
Thermal imaging is especially effective for detecting hot water line leaks inside walls.
Leaks inside wall cavities are traced to their source rather than just patching the visible stain or damage.
Underground irrigation and pool line leaks are diagnosed with the same precision as household leaks.
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.
A technician arrives with acoustic and thermal detection equipment ready to survey the affected area.
The leak is located and the findings explained in plain terms, along with a flat price for the necessary repair.
Detection and repair are backed by a written warranty on the diagnosis and any repair performed.
