An unexplained spike on the water bill, a damp patch on the floor with no obvious source, or the faint sound of running water somewhere in the walls — hidden leaks are frustrating precisely because you can't see them. Our Valdese technicians use acoustic and thermal equipment to find them without tearing into walls or floors on a guess.
Detection equipment on every Valdese truck means we don't have to guess and open drywall speculatively.
We find the leak before recommending any repair scope, which keeps costs and disruption down.
Our Valdese, NC technicians are trained specifically on detection equipment, not just general plumbing repair.
We walk you through what the equipment found, not just hand you a bill.
These are the hidden leak scenarios we investigate most often across Valdese, NC.
