FAQs
How do I know if I have a hidden plumbing leak in my Lookout Mountain home?
Common signs include unexpectedly high water bills, the sound of running water when fixtures are off, musty odors, mold or mildew on walls, warm spots on floors, or unexplained dampness in drywall or ceilings. If you notice any of these symptoms, call us immediately—hidden leaks can cause significant structural damage if left untreated.
What should I do if I suspect a hidden leak but can’t locate it?
Shut off your home’s main water valve to stop additional water loss, then contact our 24/7 emergency line. Avoid opening walls or floors yourself; our licensed plumbers use non-invasive detection equipment that pinpoints leaks accurately, saving you from unnecessary repairs and mess.
Are hidden leak detection and repairs covered in your emergency plumbing services?
Yes. Our emergency service packages include on-site inspection, electronic leak detection, detailed repair options, and immediate remediation of water damage when necessary. There are no extra dispatch fees for Lookout Mountain residents after hours or on weekends.
How quickly can your team reach my property in Lookout Mountain for an emergency leak?
We maintain fully stocked service vans on the mountain, allowing us to arrive at most local addresses within 60 minutes—often sooner during normal traffic conditions. You’ll receive GPS-based technician tracking and real-time ETA updates once your call is dispatched.
What advanced tools do you use to detect hidden leaks without damaging my walls or floors?
Our technicians rely on electronic acoustic sensors, thermal imaging cameras, moisture meters, and pressure testing equipment. These technologies locate leaks behind drywall, under slabs, or inside ceilings with high precision, so only the affected area needs to be opened for repair.
Will repairing a hidden leak improve my water pressure and lower my utility bills?
Absolutely. Hidden leaks waste water and reduce system pressure. Once the leak is sealed and any damaged piping is replaced, homeowners typically notice steadier water pressure and a drop in monthly water costs. Prompt repairs also prevent costly structural damage and mold remediation later on.
