In order to find a water leak in the house yourself, there is really only one do-it-yourself method. The DIY method to find a water leak in the house basically involves shutting off all appliances and fixtures that use water, then checking the water meter. Once this is done, you can establish whether or not you have a leak. If you do indeed have a leak, you will then have to check each appliance and fixture in your house to see which might be the source of the problem. It is at this point that many people become frustrated or discouraged and call a professional service to help them find the water leak in the house.

Professional leak detection service companies, like ADI Leak Detection, won’t just poke around your appliances and have a look at your water meter. ADI has an entire range of advanced water leak detection methods they utilise according to their customers unique problems and situations. Some of their methods include: thermal detection (using thermal imaging cameras), hydrogen leak tracing gases (using harmless and odourless tracing gases), acoustic leak detectors, and moisture detectors. All of these methods are non-invasive and leave your house and garden intact, as ADI understands that you do not want your house or property to be damaged in the leak detection process.

The type of method that ADI will employ depends upon the specifics of your property and the likelihood of the water leak source. For example, if ADI aims to find a water leak in a house’s interior water system, they might choose gas leak detection. However, if the water leak is suspected to be under the flooring of your house or your concrete driveway, acoustic detection may be the best way to go. When you can’t find a water leak in your house the DIY way, calling ADI is the most efficient way to go.
