Our Leak Finding Process

step-1

Leak Detection Start:

Our on site visit will include a short interview to get the history of the leak and specific key details that help determine how far outside the leak is beginning.

Investigate Basement

We go into the basement and inspect where the leak occurs. We document the location and then use this outside. We find important clues that show how far from the house the leak could be starting.

Investigate Outside

We then take the information regarding the leak, and start to narrow down the components of the drainage system that are most likely to be causing the leak. We start with the source of the water, and trace the water path to the final destination - usually the City storm water system.

Testing Options

We test most likely candidates for the leak and through trial and error, we can isolate the very source of the leak. We often recreate the leak, exactly in the spot in the basement (if the owner permits). Giving 100% confirmation of the leak source.
