Water Leaks

Precision Locating has extensive experience and state-of-the-art electronic line and leak detection equipment to locate subsurface leaks or leaks hidden in walls and celings.

We accurately locate over 2500 water leaks each year.

Under slab leaks are located by:

1. Mapping out the location of the underground or under slab water lines, using radio frequency line locating equipment. The signal is traced with a receiver and the profile of the lines are marked on the floor with tape.
   
   

2. After the lines are marked, we perform a scan of the area with a thermal imaging camera looking for a possible thermal image of the leak’s approximate location.
   
   

3. We then introduce air into the leaking water line with a hose hooked up to a faucet. The air is used to produce a discernable sound that we can audibly detect with high-tech acoustic amplification equipment.
