Leak Detection & Repair in Alameda & Contra Costa County

Alameda & Contra Costa County's Trusted Water Leak Detection & Repair Company

Water leaks within your property can be insidiously damaging, often remaining unnoticed until significant damage is already done. These unsuspecting leaks, whether from cracked pipes, deteriorating sewer lines, or failing roof structures, can lead to extensive property damage, including mold growth, structural weakening, and costly water bills. It is thus imperative to accurately identify and rectify these leaks before they escalate into greater issues. This is where our meticulous expertise at First Call Restoration comes into play. Not only do we excel in pinpointing the presence of a leak, but our proficient team is also adept at discovering the source of the leak and devising a definitive plan to rectify it efficiently on the first attempt.

How To Detect A Water Leak

Employing a professional leak detection service enables the swift and reliable identification of leaks lurking within walls, beneath floors, or underground—areas that are typically inaccessible and difficult to inspect. At First Call Restoration, our methodical approach combines advanced technologies and proven techniques to ensure comprehensive leak detection:


  1. Thermal Imaging :  Our use of infrared thermal imaging cameras facilitates the discernment of subtle temperature variances indicative of hidden water leaks, allowing our technicians to meticulously scan and identify anomalies across various structures.
  2. Moisture Meters:  The deployment of moisture meters enables the measurement of moisture content within building materials. An elevation in moisture levels signals the likely presence of a concealed water leak, making this tool integral to our detection process.
  3. Pressure Testing:  By isolating specific sections of your plumbing system for pressure testing, we can meticulously check for pressure drops, a clear indicator of potential leaks within the system.
  4. Acoustic Leak Detection:  Employing specialized acoustic equipment, our team listens for the nuanced sounds of escaping water from pipes, using this data to pinpoint the exact locality of the leak.

What Are The Warning Signs Of a Leak

Awareness of the following signs can aid in early leak detection, preventing the exacerbation of damage:


  1. Water Staining:  Persistent water stains, puddles, or drips under sinks, around toilets, or near appliances underscore potential leak points.
  2. Unusual Water Usage:  An inexplicable increase in water bills or meter readings might signify a hidden leak within your property.
  3. Acoustic Noises:  Sounds of running water in the absence of active water usage can indicate a concealed leak.
  4. Damp & Must Odors:  A persistent musty smell in particular areas, especially basements or crawl spaces, can signal hidden moisture.
  5. Mold Growth:  The emergence of mold or mildew in damp environments, particularly in bathrooms or under sinks, often points to a water leak.

Should you observe any of these warning signs within your property, it is advisable to contact a local leak detection company immediately. Our experienced team stands ready to assist, offering precision leak detection and repair services to safeguard your property from further damage.
