You’re not imagining that sound of running water when everything’s turned off. You’re not crazy for questioning why your water bill jumped $200 last month. Hidden leaks are real, and they’re costing you money every single day they go undetected.

First, we listen. Even the smallest water leaks make sound as the water drips or leaks out of the pipe. These sounds are faint—typically well out of the range of human hearing. That’s why our plumbers use professional-grade acoustic equipment to pick up on this sound and trace it back to its point of origin.
Next, we see what you can’t. Our infrared cameras and thermal imaging technology show us exactly where water is moving behind your walls or under your floors. Our leak detection services include the use of infrared technology, which requires absolutely no excavation. To identify leaks hidden behind walls or underneath floors, we use thermal imaging.
Then we confirm and locate the exact source. Once we’ve pinpointed the leak’s location, we can access the problem area with minimal disruption to your property and provide you with a clear repair plan.

Aging infrastructure is a big cause of leaks in Chicago. Freezing weather and tree roots that get in pipes are also common issues. High water pressure and faulty installations or repairs add to the problem. Corrosion and sudden water pressure changes can lead to leaks as well.
In Norridge, we see these problems regularly. That’s why our leak detection services cover every type of water leak you might encounter: slab leaks under your foundation, pipe leaks inside walls, underground water line leaks, and plumbing fixture leaks throughout your home or business.
Our comprehensive approach includes moisture mapping to identify all affected areas, not just the obvious ones. Using moisture mapping, we outline every area affected by the leak. That helps us plan the best way to fix the issue. We also offer water sensor installation for early leak detection, so small problems don’t turn into expensive disasters.
Whether you’re dealing with a sudden emergency or you’ve noticed gradual signs like increased water bills or damp spots, our team responds quickly with the right equipment to solve your specific leak detection needs in Norridge.
A sudden jump in your water bill with no usage changes might mean a hidden leak. A leaky pipe or water line can waste water, hiking up your bill. Continuously flowing water from a leak can increase your water use and bill. You might also notice damp areas on walls, floors, or ceilings, discoloration, peeling paint, or bubbled wallpaper.
Hearing running water when everything is off is a big sign of a hidden leak in your home. If you believe you have a leak but can’t see the signs, check your water meter to make sure no water is being used inside or outside of your property. You’ll also want to check the leak indicator on your water meter. If you’re having trouble locating the meter, be on the lookout for a triangular dial or miniature silver wheel. If the dial is spinning, there’s a good chance you have a leak.
Our technicians use infrared and thermal imaging to spot leaks hidden behind walls and under floors. We find leaks using state-of-the-art tools including infrared technology, thermal imaging, and electromagnetic locators. These tools help us locate leaks without harming your property.
The two main types of leak detection methods are visual inspection and electronic detection. Visual inspections involve searching for physical signs of a leak, while electronic detection uses specialized equipment to detect small changes in pressure or temperature that indicate a leak within the system. We combine both approaches to ensure we find every leak affecting your Norridge property.
The length of time it takes to detect a leak will depend on the size of the plumbing system and the type of equipment being used. In most cases, our technicians should be able to identify a leak within an hour. For larger properties or complex leak situations, the process might take longer, but we always work efficiently to minimize disruption.
From slow leaks under foundations to pipe breaks in walls, professional leak detection locates the source efficiently and with minimal intrusion. Our goal is to find your leak quickly and accurately so we can move forward with repairs and get your Norridge property back to normal as soon as possible.

In Norridge specifically, we often see leaks caused by the area’s older plumbing infrastructure combined with Chicago’s freeze-thaw cycles that stress pipes throughout winter and spring. Tree root intrusion into sewer and water lines is also common in established neighborhoods like Norridge, where mature trees can interfere with underground utilities.
Spotting leaks early helps avoid big problems like structural damage. It also prevents mold growth and electrical dangers. Early detection saves money on utility bills and protects your property’s value. Most leaks that occur are either in pipes inside the wall or underneath the concrete, resulting in a greater challenge when trying to detect these leaks. A delay in detecting a hidden water leak can result in extensive damage over time, which can cost you a lot.
Early detection helps prevent additional water damage and keeps utility bills manageable. Quickly locating leaks helps protect walls, floors, and foundations from damage. Slow leaks may waste hundreds of gallons each month. Timely detection allows for repairs that save on costs. In Norridge’s climate, what starts as a small leak can quickly become a major problem when winter weather hits.
