Leak Detection

Sacramento Leak Detection Services

Serving Elk Grove, Rancho Cordova, & Surrounding Areas

Even with new technology, it can be quite difficult to detect leaks because much of the plumbing is installed underneath the home. You may leak in a water line, but not even know that it is there until it turns into something like a slab leak.

At A1 Plumbing & Drains, we offer leak detection services in the Sacramento area. Our Sacramento plumbing company has been in business for years often using video technology to detect and pinpoint the location of leaks for our residential and commercial customers.


Call (916) 347-3275 or contact us online for water leak tracking in Sacramento. Learn your options when you speak with our knowledgeable local plumbers!


Signs of Hidden Water Leaks in Your Home

The nasty truth for many homeowners is that their homes can have small water leaks or that a burst water pipe can occur, and they may not even be aware of it.

Common signs of a water leak can include:

  • Excessive water bill
  • Puddles underneath your refrigerator, washing machine, or dishwasher
  • Cracks in your home’s concrete slab
  • Low or fluctuating water pressure
  •  Observing water spots on your ceiling or walls

Uncovering Hidden Leaks: A Homeowner's Guide

Leaks can lurk in unexpected places, especially beneath the surface. Some of the most common culprits include:

  • Plumbing Fixtures and Appliances: From leaky faucets to malfunctioning dishwashers.
  • Toilets: A silent water waster, often due to worn-out flappers or running toilets.
  • Showers and Bathtubs: Leaky faucets, showerheads, or cracked tiles can lead to significant water loss.
  • Hot Water Heaters: A potential source of leaks, especially as they age.
  • Outdoor Sprinklers: Overwatering or faulty sprinkler heads can waste precious water.
  • Pipes: Aging pipes can develop cracks or leaks, especially in underground systems.

Importance of Leak Detection on Your Property

Leak detection is not just for your slab to restore your plumbing, re-pipe it, or use another plumbing service to fix it. If you suspect that you leak, it can be important to have it detected and repaired as soon as possible. Penetrating water, if left untreated, can cause all kinds of damage to your property and belongings such as warping wood or causing it to rot, and creating the perfect environment for mold growth.


Using Video Technology for Leak Detection

If you suspect you may have a leak, we can help you find it with video technology.

Video technology can be used to detect the following:

  • Leak location
  • Severity of the leak
  • Damage to the foundation
  • Turns, bends, or crosses
  • Corrosion in the water line

Video technology allows our plumbers to conduct a video inspection to see the condition that the sewer line or plumbing is in. It can help us determine the exact location where live leaks, slab leaks, or foundation leaks along with the exact condition of the home’s plumbing system.

Inspecting the water lines helps us know where the leak is in order to provide more exacting leak repairs or leak detection services.
