Leak Detection Services in Toledo

Protect Your Home from Hidden Water Damage

Water leaks can be stressful, inconvenient, and expensive—especially when they occur in areas you can’t easily see. While a dripping faucet or visibly damaged pipe is easy to spot, many leaks are hidden under concrete slabs, behind walls, or beneath your yard. These hidden leaks can go undetected for long periods, causing structural issues, mold growth, and costly repairs. If you suspect a water leak in your home, the trained professionals at American Leak Detection of Toledo are here to help. Our specialists use advanced technology and decades of experience to accurately locate leaks with minimal disruption to your property.

Common Areas Where Water Leaks Develop

Not all leaks are obvious, and many occur in places homeowners rarely inspect. Identifying these areas early can prevent major damage and unnecessary expenses.

Service Lines

The water line that runs from your meter or pump to your home often lies beneath your yard, driveway, or other exterior surfaces. Because this line is underground, leaks can remain hidden until you notice changes in water pressure or unusually wet spots on your property.

Slab Leaks

A slab leak occurs when a hot or cold water line underneath your home’s concrete foundation develops a crack or hole. These leaks are especially concerning because they can compromise the structural integrity of your foundation if left untreated.

Interior Plumbing Leaks

Pipes inside your walls, ceilings, or floors may develop slow leaks that cause discoloration, warping, mold, or musty odors. These leaks can be challenging to locate without professional equipment.

Crawl Space & Basement Leaks

Homes with crawl spaces or basements are also vulnerable. Moisture or standing water may indicate a leak in your plumbing lines, which can lead to wood rot, mold growth, and poor indoor air quality.

Specialty Systems

Radiant floor heating, hydronic heating and cooling lines, snow melt systems, and even ice rink plumbing systems can all develop leaks. These systems require specialized detection tools—equipment we use every day at American Leak Detection of Toledo.

With over 40 years of industry experience, our technicians undergo extensive training to locate leaks in even the most difficult-to-reach areas.

Signs You May Have a Hidden Water Leak

Leaks don’t always make themselves obvious, but certain signs can indicate a problem. If you notice anything unusual, it’s important to take action quickly.

• Unexplained water sounds: Hearing water running when no fixtures are on
• Mildew or mold growth: Often the result of excess moisture behind walls or under flooring
• Rising water bills: Increased costs despite normal usage
• Foundation cracks: Caused by ongoing moisture from a slab leak
• Wet, damp, or warm spots: Unusual moisture on walls or floors
• Water meter or pump activity changes:

Meter users: Take a reading, avoid using water for 1–2 hours, then check again. A change may indicate a leak.

Well pump users: If your pump runs while no water is being used, a leak is likely.

If you recognize any of these signs, call (419) 299-4663 to schedule a professional inspection.
