Expert Leak Detection Services in Savannah, GA

To prevent the most damage, early detection of a water leak is important to minimize the amount of water that impacts your property. At True North Restoration of Savannah, GA, we have compiled these tips to help you troubleshoot whether you may have a water leak:  

Check Your Water Meter: Turn off all water in your home and note the reading on your water meter. Wait for several minutes. If your water meter changes, you may have a hidden leak.  

Monitor Your Water Bill: Keep an eye out for unexplained increases in your water usage. This can be a sign of a water leak.  

Perform Visual Inspections: Make a habit of regularly checking areas around plumbing fixtures for signs of a leak. Check under the sink, behind appliances, around your water heater, and wherever you have water connections. 

Listen For Drips: Do you hear drips or running water where there should be none?  

Water Pressure Changes: A sudden decrease or increase in water pressure can indicate a problem.   

Whenever you suspect a leak but are unable to locate it, call the professionals at True North Restoration of Savannah, GA. We will track down the source of the leak and make a plan to mitigate the damage and restore your property.

Leaks are more likely to occur in some areas and rooms of your home, but can occur anywhere there are plumbing pipes and drains, windows, and cracks or gaps. These are the most common locations we see in Savannah, GA, homes:  

Roof and Attic: Water coming from your roof or attic can cause extensive damage as it trickles down to the lowest level of your property. Check for damaged or missing shingles, inspect flashing, and ensure your gutters are not clogged and are directing water away from your home. 

Bathrooms: Inspect areas around faucets, toilets, under the sink, and around the shower or tub for signs of water damage. Make sure the floor does not feel soft or squishy around toilets and tubs, and there is no water dripping under the sink.

Kitchens: Check appliance connections and inspect water supply hoses regularly for signs of wear or damage. Consider replacing plastic or rubber hoses with more durable stainless steel supply lines. Check under the sink for any signs of water. 

Laundry Rooms: Check supply line connections as well as drain hoses to ensure they are working properly and free from signs of damage, wear, or clogs. Follow the manufacturer's recommendations for washing machine maintenance. 

Utility Room/Closets: Your water heater and HVAC system can leak or cause condensation issues. Check the areas around your utility room regularly and perform regular maintenance to prevent water heater leaks, clogged condensation drains, and other issues. 

Exterior Walls: Check the exterior of your home for any cracks or gaps that may allow water to enter. This is common near windows and doors.

Water leaks in your Savannah, GA, home can quickly become a serious issue under the right conditions. Not only is there the risk of structural damage and mold growth resulting from a water leak, but water can come into contact with electrical wiring that can cause a fire or electrical short.
