Leak Detection starts with finding the actual cause.
Focused diagnosis for hidden water leaks, damp areas, and unexplained water use. Similar symptoms can have very different causes, which is why we inspect the affected system before recommending work. Haha's explains the findings in plain language and gives you the available choices before an approved repair or installation begins.
Signs It is Time to Schedule Service
- A water bill that jumps without a change in use
- The water meter moving when every fixture is off
- Warm spots on a floor, damp drywall, stains on ceilings or a musty smell
If you find water near electrical outlets or panels, or a leak you cannot control, shut off the main water valve and call. Stay clear of any wet area near electricity.
What Can Cause the Problem?
Hidden leaks come from corroded or failed pipe, loose or cracked fittings, slab leaks, water heater connections, irrigation lines and fixtures that seep inside walls. Water travels, so the stain is often not where the leak is.
How We Diagnose Leak Detection
We start by confirming a leak with a meter check, then narrow it down with listening equipment and pressure testing, and use camera or thermal tools when needed. The goal is to find the leak without opening more of the house than necessary.
- 1ListenWe document what changed, when it began, and whether the problem is intermittent.
- 2TestWe check the system in a logical order and verify the failed condition.
- 3ExplainYou receive the findings, pricing factors, and practical options.
- 4CompleteApproved work is performed, tested, and the work area is cleaned.
Repair, Installation, and Cost Factors
Cost depends on how hard the leak is to find, access to the pipe and whether the repair needs opening a wall or floor. Finding it early keeps the repair and the water damage smaller.
We tell you what we found and what each repair option involves before work starts. The $89 diagnostic fee is waived with an approved repair.
Built for Kansas City Conditions
Kansas City's freeze and thaw cycles stress pipes and fittings, and a leak can run for weeks before showing up. A jump in the bill is often the first sign.
