💨 Sewer Odor Leak Detection in NJ & Smoke Testing Experts
🔥 Smoke Test Services for Sewer Gas Smells, Vent Pipe Leaks & Drain Odor



Dealing with a mystery sewer gas smell in your home and looking for Sewer Odor Leak Detection in NJ?
You need answers — fast — before the odor becomes a serious health hazard or structural issue.
At First Class Leak Detection, we specialize in safe, accurate, and non-destructive sewer odor leak detection services across New Jersey.
Whether the issue is caused by a broken drain pipe, failed sewer vent, or missing trap seal, our expert team uses advanced tools like smoke testing, sewer cameras, and tracer gas to locate the problem — without tearing open your walls or flooring.
Smelling sewage? Don’t ignore it — it’s a warning sign of a hidden issue.
Sulfur odors, foul smells near drains, or sewer gas in your basement or crawl space are signs of an underground sewer line leak, cracked vent pipe, or open drain system.
If untreated, these leaks can lead to mold, health issues, and even fire hazards due to methane buildup. Insurance may also deny claims if it’s deemed a “long-term issue.”
We help New Jersey homeowners, plumbers, and property managers find the exact source — fast — using non-invasive tools and detailed reports for remediation or insurance filing.
Why Sewer Odor Leaks Are More Dangerous & Costly Than You Think
Health Risks – Sewer gas contains hydrogen sulfide, which can cause nausea, headaches, and respiratory distress.
Fire Hazard – Methane is flammable — sewer leaks can be a hidden ignition risk.
📋 Table of Contents
Hidden Building Damage – Ongoing gas or moisture can rot wood framing and drywall from the inside.
Costly Repairs – Fixing widespread odor issues often requires full pipe or wall replacements.
Don’t wait until symptoms get worse. If you’re searching for sewer odor leak detection near me in New Jersey — First Class Leak Detection is here to help.
Drain & Sewer Leak Stats – Why Early Detection Matters
According to the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), the U.S. loses over 6 billion gallons of treated water every single day due to hidden pipe leaks — much of it from deteriorating drain and sewer systems.
If you’re searching for top-rated sewer or drain leak detection in New Jersey, you’re in the right place. At First Class Leak Detection, we specialize in locating underground leaks caused by broken, cracked, or disconnected sewer lines using non-invasive technology that avoids costly demolition.
✅ Zero Unnecessary Digging — We use acoustic sensors, sewer cameras, and tracer gas testing to find leaks fast without damaging your floors, walls, or landscaping.
✅ Fast Scheduling & Detailed Reports — Perfect for homeowners, plumbers, property managers, and insurance documentation.

New Jersey Leak Detection Reviews – Trusted Statewide
I had a hidden water main leak in my home and didn’t even know it until my water bill skyrocketed. Carl from first class leak detection came out the same day, found the leak quickly, and explained everything clearly. Super professional and saved me from major damage. Highly recommend!

We had a major water leak from our attic HVAC unit that damaged our hallway and bedroom below. It was overwhelming, but first class leak detection came through for us. They found the source quickly, cleaned everything up, and set up drying equipment right away. They were so compassionate and professional—especially Selda, who made sure we had all the documentation we needed for insurance. It felt like they truly cared about getting our home back to normal. While this experience overall was stressful, working with them made it a lot easier on us

Had a slab leak in my Freehold home that had me sweating—until these guys showed up. No upselling, no drama, just a technician named Carl who hooked up some gear, found the leak fast, and explained it to me like a normal human.
He didn’t treat my house like a demolition zone, either. Clean work, fair price, and zero follow-up hassles. If your floor’s turning into a pool or your water bill’s suspicious, stop overthinking it and call them.
