FAQs
How can I tell if I have a hidden water leak in my Elora home?
Common warning signs include an unexplained spike in your water bill, the sound of running water when all fixtures are off, damp or warm spots on floors and walls, musty odours, or visible mildew. If you notice any of these symptoms, call us promptly—early detection prevents structural damage and mould growth.
What leak-detection technologies do you use?
We employ non-invasive tools such as acoustic listening devices, thermal imaging cameras, tracer gas, and moisture meters. These methods allow us to pinpoint leaks under concrete slabs, inside walls, or beneath landscaping without unnecessary drilling or excavation, saving you time, mess, and money.
Are your services safe for Elora’s older stone or heritage homes?
Yes. We routinely work on 19th-century stone cottages and historic buildings in Elora. Our non-destructive techniques protect original materials and finishes. We take additional care to follow heritage conservation guidelines and provide written documentation for insurance or restoration purposes.
How quickly can you respond to an emergency leak?
We offer 24/7 emergency leak detection. For most addresses in Elora, a certified technician can be on-site within 60–90 minutes, even during evenings and weekends. Our trucks are fully stocked, allowing us to begin diagnosis immediately on arrival.
Do you repair the leak once you find it?
Absolutely. After locating the leak, we explain your repair options—ranging from spot repairs and pipe re-routing to full pipe replacement—along with upfront pricing. In many cases, we can perform repairs on the same visit to restore water service and prevent further damage.
How much does professional leak detection cost in Elora?
Pricing starts at $195 for a standard residential assessment, which includes a full system inspection and comprehensive report. Complex or multiple leaks, slab leaks, or commercial properties may incur additional costs. We provide a fixed quote before work begins, and the diagnostic fee is waived if you proceed with our repair services.
