Leak Detection Services in Ontario
Expert Leak Repair in Ontario & Surrounding Areas
Even the smallest leak can cause significant damage if not detected and repaired promptly. If you suspect any kind of leak in your system, you need quality leak detection services. The expert technicians at Royalty Plumbing and Drain have the knowledge and proven experience to rapidly detect and repair any type of leak.
Methods of Water Leak Detection
The first step in effective leak detection is confirming that a leak exists in the first place. Our skilled plumbers achieve this by performing a pressure test on your system, monitoring where water pressure increases or decreases. Once a leak is confirmed, our technicians use highly accurate line tracking technology to determine the exact location and path of the pipe. If necessary, we may also introduce additional air into the pipe to precisely isolate the leak.
With the location identified, we utilize advanced equipment that amplifies the sound of water within the pipe. This technology allows us to track the leak by pinpointing the spot where the loudest reverberation is heard. Once the leak has been precisely located, our technicians can determine the best course of action to repair the crack or hole in the pipe.
Advantages of Leak Detection
Choosing professional leak detection offers several advantages over traditional methods, such as:
-
Superior Precision: Leak detection technology allows us to pinpoint the exact location of the leak, eliminating guesswork.
-
Non-Destructive Isolation: Our advanced equipment enables us to find leaks without causing unnecessary damage to your landscape or home. You won’t have to worry about your yard being dug up or walls being torn down just to find a small leak.
-
Cost Savings: Traditional digging methods can be expensive and destructive. Our high-tech detection methods save you money by avoiding the extensive repairs required after traditional digging, and they reduce the stress associated with such invasive processes.
