If you suspect a hidden water leak, your first question might be:
“What exactly does a leak detection service do?”

Great question. Whether it’s a mysterious spike in your water bill, damp spots on your floor, or the sound of water running behind your walls, a professional leak detection service is designed to find the source fast—without tearing up your property.

Here’s exactly what’s included with First Class Leak Detection.

Step 1: In-Home Evaluation & Interview

We start by gathering key details:

• What are you noticing (water sounds, moisture, etc.)?

• When did the issue start?

• Have any repairs been attempted already?

• Is the home on slab, basement, or crawl space?

This helps us determine where to start and which tools to use.

Step 2: Advanced Leak Detection Technology

Depending on the symptoms, we may use:

• Acoustic Listening Devices – to hear water leaking behind walls, under floors, or in soil

• Thermal Imaging Cameras – to identify hot/cold water line leaks through temperature differences

• Tracer Gas Detection – for underground or hard-to-reach pipes

• Moisture Meters – to confirm dampness inside materials

• No guessing. No unnecessary damage.

Step 3: Leak Location Report

Once we’ve found the leak:

• We mark the exact location

• Document it with photos and notes

• Provide a  report 

Step 4: Guidance on Next Steps

We’ll clearly explain:

• What caused the leak

• What needs to be repaired or replaced

• What type of contractor you may need

• We don’t just find the leak—we help you solve the whole problem.

Bonus: Peace of Mind

A professional leak detection service helps you:

• Avoid unnecessary demolition

• Save money on trial-and-error repairs

• Catch leaks early before major damage sets in

• Get accurate documentation for claims and estimates
