A hidden leak can run for weeks before you notice it, quietly raising your water bill and rotting wood, drywall and flooring. By the time stains or a musty smell appear, the damage is often already significant. Finding the leak early is the key to a small, affordable repair instead of an expensive restoration.
Plumber Cumming GA provides professional leak detection and repair in Cumming, GA for homes and businesses throughout Forsyth County. Our electronic listening equipment, pressure testing and thermal tools locate the leak precisely - without tearing your home apart to find it. Call (770) 230-0428 to schedule an inspection.
Signs You May Have a Hidden Leak
Hidden leaks leave clues. Watch for:
- An unexplained increase in your water bill
- The water meter still moving with every fixture off
- Damp or discolored spots on walls, ceilings or floors
- Musty or moldy odors
- Warped, buckling or soft flooring
- A warm spot on a concrete slab floor (hot water line leak)
- Sounds of running water when nothing is on
- Cracks appearing in walls or foundation
If you notice any of these, call us. The sooner a leak is found, the less damage it causes.
Types of Leaks We Find and Fix
- Slab leaks - under concrete foundations, common with older copper lines
- Wall and ceiling leaks - behind drywall from supply lines
- Underground and yard leaks - in service lines and irrigation
- Water line leaks - in the main supply to the home
- Fixture and drain leaks - behind toilets, tubs and sinks
- Pool and spa line leaks
We also handle related line damage through our water line repair and slab leak detection and repair services.
How Our Leak Detection Works
We combine several proven methods to locate leaks accurately:
- Meter and pressure testing - confirms a leak exists and isolates the system
- Acoustic listening - sensitive microphones pick up the sound of water escaping
- Thermal imaging - reveals temperature differences from a hot or cold line leak
- Video inspection - a camera checks drains and sewer lines
- Pipe tracing - maps buried lines to mark the exact repair point
The result is a marked, targeted location - so the repair is as small and non-invasive as possible.
Leak Repair and Repiping
Once located, most leaks can be repaired with a targeted fix - cutting out the damaged section and replacing it with new pipe. We use quality materials and pressure-test the repair before we finish. When a leak is one of several on old, corroded pipe, we will show you why repiping can be the smarter long-term decision instead of repeated repairs.
Stopping the Damage
While you wait for your appointment, shut off the main water valve if the leak is active, and move valuables away from damp areas. For an active leak that is flooding, treat it as an emergency and call us right away. We can also help with water pressure issues that can stress pipes and cause leaks in the first place.
