Is this a leak detection & repair issue?

✓ Unexplained increases in your water bill

✓ Damp or discolored spots on walls, ceilings, or floors

✓ A persistent musty smell

✓ The sound of running water when no fixtures are in use

What typically causes it, and what happens next

Hidden leaks can come from pipes inside walls, under slabs, or in fixtures, and are not always visible right away. Your responding provider will typically use detection equipment to locate the source before beginning any repair.

What affects the cost

Pricing for leak detection and repair depends on the location of the leak and the equipment needed to find it. Your responding provider confirms pricing before starting work.

When to request a connection right away

Leaks rarely resolve on their own and can lead to further damage over time, so it is worth addressing promptly once you notice signs of one.

How urgent is a suspected hidden leak?

It is worth requesting a connection promptly, since hidden leaks can worsen and increase water damage over time.
