Signs You Might Have a Hidden Leak

Not all plumbing leaks announce themselves with puddles or the sound of dripping. Some are buried deep within your walls or under your foundation. These hidden issues can fester for months or even years if undetected. Here are some subtle (and not-so-subtle) signs that it’s time to call the experts:

  • A sudden spike in your water bill without increased usage

  • Warped flooring or unexplained wet spots

  • Musty odors or signs of mold growth

  • Hot spots on your floor (often a sign of a hot water slab leak)

  • Reduced water pressure

  • Constant sound of water running with no fixtures on

If you're experiencing any of these symptoms, don't delay. The longer a leak goes unnoticed, the greater the risk of structural damage, rot, and mold development.

Advanced Leak Detection Technology

At Thorough Plumbing, we pair years of plumbing expertise with state-of-the-art tools to pinpoint the source of your leak quickly and accurately—without tearing up your walls or flooring. Our non-invasive methods include:

  • Acoustic leak detection: Sensitive listening devices can hear the faint sound of water escaping from pressurized pipes.

  • Thermal imaging: Infrared cameras help detect temperature differences caused by leaking hot water lines.

  • Pressure testing: Confirms the presence of leaks in various sections of your plumbing system.

  • Moisture meters: Identify areas with hidden water intrusion.

This technology allows us to diagnose the issue with minimal disruption to your property and start repairs immediately.

Repairing the Problem with Precision

Once we’ve located the source of your leak, our expert plumbers will walk you through your options and carry out the repairs efficiently and with care. Whether it’s a pinhole in your copper pipe or a major slab leak beneath your foundation, we bring the right tools and the right mindset to solve the issue at its core.

Our repair services include:

  • Pipe replacement or re-routing

  • Fixture and valve replacement

  • Slab leak repair

FAQs About Leak Detection and Repair

1. How do I know if I have a slab leak under my foundation?

If you notice warm spots on your floors, hear running water with no fixtures on, or experience a sharp increase in your water bill, you may have a slab leak. These types of leaks occur beneath the concrete foundation and often go unnoticed until serious damage is done. Thorough Plumbing uses advanced thermal imaging and acoustic equipment to locate slab leaks without digging up your floors unnecessarily.

2. Can a small water leak really cause serious damage?

Absolutely. Even a small, slow leak can lead to mold, structural damage, and skyrocketing water bills over time. Left unchecked, leaks may damage drywall, flooring, framing, and more. That’s why timely detection and professional repair are essential to protecting your home and wallet.
