Leak Detection

Hidden water leaks can damage floors, walls, and foundations long before you see a puddle. Glenn I. Jones Home Services locates leaks inside walls, under slabs, and along water lines for homes in Lake City, Gainesville, and surrounding North Florida areas, so they can be repaired before the damage spreads.

Leak Detection in Lake City & Gainesville, FL

Not every leak announces itself. A pipe dripping inside a wall, under a concrete slab, or along the water line in your yard can run for weeks or months before you notice anything. By then, the result can be rotted framing, damaged flooring, mold growth, and a much higher water bill. In North Florida’s warm, humid climate, moisture problems can grow quickly.

Glenn I. Jones Home Services uses professional leak detection methods to pinpoint the source of a leak with as little disruption to your home as possible. Finding the exact location first means repairs are smaller, faster, and less expensive.

Signs of a Hidden Leak

  • A water bill that jumps without a change in your usage
  • The sound of running water when all fixtures are off
  • Warm spots on the floor, which can point to a hot water line leak under the slab
  • Water stains, peeling paint, or bubbling on walls and ceilings
  • Musty odors or mold in cabinets, closets, or along baseboards
  • Soggy spots in the yard or unusually green patches of grass
  • A water meter that keeps moving when no water is being used

Leaks We Locate

  • Slab Leaks: Leaks in water lines running beneath your home’s concrete foundation.
  • In-Wall & Ceiling Leaks: Leaking supply lines and fittings hidden behind drywall.
  • Water Service Line Leaks: Leaks in the line between the meter or well and your house.
  • Fixture & Appliance Leaks: Slow leaks at toilets, water heaters, ice makers, and washing machine hookups.

What to Do If You Suspect a Leak

A quick test: turn off every faucet and water-using appliance in the house, then check your water meter. If it is still moving, water is going somewhere it should not. If you see active water damage, shut off the main water valve to limit the damage and call us. Once the leak is found, our team can handle the plumbing repair.
