Signs you need leak detection in Palmetto

  • A steady hidden leak can run around the clock. Compare recent bills with the same months last year.

  • Shut off all faucets and appliances, then watch the meter's leak indicator. Movement means water is escaping somewhere.

  • A leaking hot water line under a slab can warm tile or carpet above it. This is a classic slab leak sign.

Leak Detection in Palmetto: questions

It depends where the leak sits. The City of Palmetto's water department maintains the city's water service lines, so call them about leaks at the street or meter. Leaks between the meter and your house are usually the homeowner's. We can pinpoint the spot so you know who to call before anyone digs.

Yes. Our phones are answered 24 hours a day, every day, and we don't charge after-hours fees on nights, weekends or holidays. We confirm an appointment window for your Palmetto address when you call. If we are late for a scheduled appointment, we pay you $5 per minute, up to $300.

Turn off every faucet, appliance, and irrigation zone. Then look at your water meter. Most meters have a small leak indicator that spins when water flows. If it moves, water is escaping somewhere. Write down the reading, wait an hour without using water, and check again to confirm.
