Residential Leak Detection Services
It takes a blending of expert specialists and quality equipment to detect hidden leaks. With our extensive training programs and state-of-the-art equipment we have saved homeowners billions of gallons of water. By utilizing our methods, not only are we saving water, but saving homeowners millions of dollars in costly property damage and destruction as well.
While it is true that leaks are more common in older properties, newer properties can have problems too. Poor construction and corrosion and in many cases, ground movement can cause unexpected pipe damage at any time. If undetected, the problem threatens property and makes repairs more costly.
American Leak Detection is the "Original Leak Detection Specialist" operating since 1974, The Minneapolis/St. Paul office started operations in 1994. Our office provides leak detection services on virtually any piping system contained in a home.
Water & Drain Lines
On the water supply system, we can find leaks on the water service line, hot and cold supply lines inside the hom,e and under the slab. We also find leaks on boiler systems (radiant and infloor), irrigation and well lines.
On the drain, waste and vent system we provide sewer video inspections for sewer and drain tile systems. We locate the problem: break, obstruction, root intrusion or belly in the line causing slow draining or backups.
Sewer Odor Testing
This time of year it is common to notice sewer odor smells in homes and basements. When the temperature gets colder, windows begin to shut, the heat comes on, and sewer odors are often noticed. A constant sewer smell can indicate a break in a waste or vent pipe, a bad toilet seal or many other plumbing issues. Testing methods are used to locate problem areas so they can be fixed and the odors can be eliminated from the home.
Swimming Pools, Spas, & Fountains
If your pool or spa is loosing water it's probably from a leak in the underground plumbing lines, vinyl liner, or possible structural cracks. Our advanced electronic equipment quickly identifies the leak area with non-invasive techniques so repairs can be made.
