An unexplained spike on the water bill, a damp patch on the floor with no obvious source, or the faint sound of running water somewhere in the walls — hidden leaks are frustrating precisely because you can't see them. Our Ketchum technicians use acoustic and thermal equipment to find them without tearing into walls or floors on a guess.
Detection equipment on every Ketchum truck means we don't have to guess and open drywall speculatively.
Locating the leak precisely keeps any necessary opening small and targeted rather than exploratory.
Every technician performing detection work carries full licensing and liability coverage.
We walk you through what the equipment found, not just hand you a bill.
These are the hidden leak scenarios we investigate most often across Ketchum, ID.
This method works well for pressurized supply line leaks that create a detectable sound signature.
We narrow a slab leak to a specific small area rather than an entire room.
Infrared imaging reveals temperature differences caused by escaping hot or cold water behind walls and under floors.
Leaks inside wall cavities are traced to their source rather than just patching the visible stain or damage.
Underground irrigation and pool line leaks are diagnosed with the same precision as household leaks.
We check for common culprits — running toilets, slab leaks, irrigation issues — starting with the most likely first.
Describe the symptoms to dispatch — a wet spot, a sound, or just a rising water bill all help narrow the search.
A technician arrives with acoustic and thermal detection equipment ready to survey the affected area.
The leak is located and the findings explained in plain terms, along with a flat price for the necessary repair.
