Listening and pressure tests
The plumber listens along the pipes and tests the pressure to narrow the search. That points to the area to open up and spares the rest.
Find out why the water bill is rising, why a wall is damp or why one patch of floor feels warm. Call and describe what you notice, and we put you with a plumber who locates the leak and repairs it.
Leak calls come from homes in St. Clair Shores and the towns we serve, and a plumber is matched to the damp wall, warm floor or rising bill.
The plumber listens along the pipes and tests the pressure to narrow the search. That points to the area to open up and spares the rest.
When a supply line runs under a concrete floor and leaks, the plumber chips through only the spot above it, repairs the pipe and patches the floor.
When a buried line has leaked more than once, the plumber can run a new line overhead or through a wall and leave the old run unused, rather than digging up the same floor again.
The pipe between the street and your house can leak too. The plumber traces it and repairs it, or replaces the length that has failed.
A water meter still moving with every fixture off points to a hidden leak, and so do ceiling stains, a musty smell or running water heard in a silent house.
Since 2019 the city has been replacing water service lines in homes identified as having lead. A plumber working on a leaking service line can tell you what material it is.
