Signs you have a water leak in your home

There are a few common signs we see when there is a leak in your home. Here are a few indicators that you may have a leak. If you have any of the following call TLC for service.

High water bills – An unusually high water bill or a letter from the water authority indicates you probably have a leak. This is the most common call we get from customers who need to have a leak detected in their home.

Hear water running – Whether you hear water running in your walls or hear water in your pipes even when you’re not running water, this usually means you have a water leak somewhere.

Warm spots on floor – A warm spot on the floor usually is a sign that you have a hot water leak underneath the slab. Our leak detection experts can use our equipment to locate the leak so it can be repaired.

Wet spots – If you find wet spots in or outside your home, you likely have a pipe leak or a break somewhere in your plumbing system.

Mold or mildew smells – If you have a moldy or mildew smell and can’t find the source it is time to call TLC to help locate the leak and get it repaired.

Customer Story in Albuquerque

TLC locates water leak after customer receives high water bill

Problem: When Albuquerque homeowner Ron T., received a water bill for over $700 he realized he likely had a leak. He called TLC right away to have a plumber come out and locate the leak.

Solution: Jeff came out and used the infrared sonic leak detection equipment and located the leak under the home. Once he pinpointed the leak he gave Ron options for repair. Jeff arranged for one of TLC’s plumbers Jack to come to the home and repair the leak. Jack and his assistant had to cut open the concrete slab under the home to repair the leak. After repairing the leak and cleaning up the area Ron was happy to see that his water bill went back down to $90.

THE CUSTOMER'S TESTIMONIAL

I received a huge water bill ($767.00) and it was apparent that I had a leak…SOMEWHERE! I contacted TLC to come out and see if they could come out and find the leak. First Jeff T. came out and found the leak in short order using some sophisticated infrared and sonic listening devices to pinpoint the leak under the house. He then scheduled Jack C. and his assistant to come out, open up the concrete floor to find the actual leak. I might add that I have wood floors throughout the house and Jeff, Jack and their assistant took great care to protect them from dirt and concrete damage by placing drop cloths from the work area to the front door and beyond. Thank you and cuddos to TLC for your fine service, caring attitude, and your promptness in finding and fixing the underground leak at my home. Now my monthly water bill is back to only $90.

Leak Detection FAQs

When you have a water leak in your home or get a high water bill you may have a lot of questions. Here are some of the most common frequently asked questions about leak detection.

Leak detection uses special equipment to locate a water leak within a plumbing system. A trained plumber injects carbon dioxide into the water system and then utilizes special sound equipment to pinpoint the location of the leak.

Not all plumbers are qualified to perform leak location services. Make sure you hire a plumber that is experienced in leak detection and has the proper training and equipment.
