Infrared Leak Detection in Escambia County
Non-Invasive Thermal Scanning for Residential & Commercial Properties
Hidden leaks don’t announce themselves. In Escambia County’s coastal environment, where subtropical humidity and salt air accelerate moisture intrusion in building materials, water can work behind walls, under floors, and inside ceilings for months before visible damage appears. At American Leak Detection, we use an infrared scanning camera to locate those leaks without drilling, cutting, or tearing into your property. Our guiding principle, Leak Detection Without Destruction™, means you get answers without added repair bills.
We serve homeowners and commercial property operators throughout Escambia County. Whether you’re tracking down a mysterious water bill increase or preparing a property for sale, non-invasive leak detection gives you a clear picture of what’s happening inside your building envelope before it becomes a larger problem.

What One Infrared Inspection Can Reveal
Thermal imaging detects surface temperature variations caused by differences in how wet and dry materials respond to heat, making moisture intrusion visible without opening a single wall. But infrared scanning covers more ground than water alone.
A single inspection from our technicians can identify:
- Water leaks and the damage they’ve caused
- Energy leaks through poorly insulated walls or gaps in the building envelope, which contribute to higher utility costs in Escambia County’s warm climate
- Electrical hot spots that could be fire hazards
- Pests that have built nests in your home
Our technicians interpret thermal imaging data accurately, translating what the camera sees into actionable findings. You don’t walk away with raw images and guesswork. You walk away knowing what needs attention and why.

Your Inspection Report: Documentation That Works for You
After your infrared leak detection inspection in Escambia County, you receive a complete report with infrared images, descriptions of findings, and recommended actions. This isn’t just a summary. It’s a document you can put to work.
Property owners use these reports to prioritize repairs, avoid spending on unnecessary work, and support homeowner’s insurance claims when moisture intrusion has caused documented water damage. For commercial operators, the report can serve as evidence for property assessments or help meet disclosure requirements in a transaction. Because our inspection is entirely non-invasive, there’s no drilling or wall removal during the process. The camera does the work.

“I had an awful rotten egg smell as soon as I bought our house. After calling two plumbers (who charged me a fee to tell me nothing was wrong), the Gas Company (no gas leak), and the Public Works Department, I finally called American Leak Detection. They came in, investigated with smoke, and fixed the problem. For the first time in two months, my house doesn't smell like a restaurant toilet. Highly recommend them!”- Sandi T.

“I can't say enough good things about their service! We had a slab leak that flooded the master bedroom and they came as quickly as they could and then rearranged their work schedule so the repair could be made and we could once again have water turned on. The workmen were professional and efficient. I hope I never have to use that kind of service again but if so, they are he best.”- Carolyn R.

“Tree roots had cracked my filter pipes and I was losing water badly. I was referred to American Leak Detection and set up an appointment. Daniel came out and did his best to diagnose the problem. He got very strange results and it was hard to determine the exact pipe(s) that were cracked but since I'd had a similar repair done 6 years ago and we could see evidence of the tree root damage from above, I felt confident we knew were the issue was and I contracted for the work. I was pleasantly surprised to see Daniel return to perform the work. I arranged to be home that day so I could see what he found. I supposed I hovered, taking pictures of the process, asking questions as he went along. He never got annoyed and answered every question with a smile. I don't think i ever saw anyone work harder. It was obvious from that start he had a lot of experience and knew what he was doing. Digging out the area had to be done mostly by hand which he did efficiently without complaints. He found multiple pipes cracked which explained the odd results during diagnosis. The job took longer than expected because it was difficult work and he ran out of daylight but on the job until he it wasn't possible anymore that day. Even though he was fully booked for the following day, his company rearranged his schedule so he could return the following afternoon. I returned home early from work and was able to see him complete the job. He even patched the deck with new concrete like an artisan, taking every care to make it as smooth and neat as possible. After 30 years in this house, we have had many service people come to do work. No one has ever delivered better than Daniel. He was competent, diligent, and pleasant. The cost wasn't cheap but it was fair. I don't mind at all paying for quality service.”- String R.
