At True Blue Plumbing, we take leak detection reporting seriously. A hidden leak in your bathroom might seem minor at first, but over time, it can cause significant damage—leading to costly repairs.
Whether you’re an insurance builder needing accurate reporting or a homeowner looking to fix a leak before it worsens, our advanced leak detection techniques ensure we pinpoint the problem quickly and efficiently.

Our team uses cutting-edge tools to detect leaks, such as:
- Thermal Imaging Cameras: these help us identify moisture behind walls and under floors.
- Pressure Testing: we test water pressure in your plumbing system to find any inconsistencies.
- Acoustic Leak Detection: by listening for subtle sounds of escaping water, we can detect hidden leaks.
- Flood Testing & Spray Tests: we simulate real-world conditions to check for leaks in showers and sinks.
