Hidden Water Leaks Waste More Than Water

A hidden water leak can release hundreds of gallons a day into your walls, floors and soil — and most Keller homeowners only discover it when the bill arrives or the damage shows. Professional water leak detection finds the source early, while the fix is still small.

Our water leak detection service covers the whole Keller area, tracing leaks in supply lines, fixtures, irrigation lines and pipes inside walls and ceilings.

Signs of a Hidden Water Leak

How We Find Water Leaks

We start with a meter test to confirm a leak exists, then isolate it system by system. Acoustic listening devices detect the sound of pressurized water escaping a pipe — even inside a wall. Infrared cameras reveal temperature differences where water is spreading through building materials, and moisture meters confirm exactly how far it has traveled. For lines that fail pressure tests, we can narrow the break to a specific segment of pipe.

Because the process is non-invasive, your home stays intact while we search — and when a repair is needed, it targets the true source instead of the most convenient guess.

Common Places Water Leaks Hide in Keller Homes

In our Keller inspections, leaks most often turn up in slab lines stressed by clay-soil movement, aging supply lines to water heaters, toilet and fixture connections that seep silently, irrigation lines cracked by roots or freezes, and shower and tub plumbing inside walls. Knowing these patterns helps us test the likeliest sources first — so most inspections are finished the same visit.

The 30-Minute Meter Test: Check for a Leak Yourself

Not sure a leak even exists? Your water meter can tell you before you call anyone. It takes about half an hour and nothing but a phone timer:

  1. Stop all water use. Don't run taps, toilets, the dishwasher, washing machine or irrigation for the duration of the test. If your home has an automatic ice maker or water softener, note that they can cycle on their own — early morning, before the household wakes up, is the cleanest time to test.
  2. Find your meter. Keller meters sit in a covered box near the street, usually at the edge of the front yard. Lift the lid and find the dial or digital display — most have a small triangle or snowflake-shaped low-flow indicator.
  3. Take a reading. Photograph the meter with your phone so there's no transcription error, and note whether the low-flow indicator is moving at all.
  4. Wait 30 minutes. Leave every fixture off. Go make coffee. Just don't flush.
  5. Read it again. If the numbers changed — or the low-flow indicator is still spinning — water is moving through your system with everything off. That's a leak, full stop.

A positive test tells you a leak exists but not where it hides — that's the part our equipment answers. If your test comes back positive, note roughly how much the meter moved; that flow rate helps us judge whether you're dealing with a pinhole seep or something closer to an open line. And if the movement is fast, skip the detective work and see our slab leak detection page — fast meter movement plus a warm floor is the classic under-slab signature.

Frequently Asked Questions

How can I check for a water leak myself?

Turn off every tap and appliance that uses water, then check your water meter. If the dial or leak indicator is still moving after 30 minutes with nothing running, water is escaping somewhere. That confirms a leak exists — professional detection then finds exactly where.

How much water can a hidden leak waste?

Even a small pressurized leak can waste several hundred gallons a day. A running toilet can waste far more. On a Keller water bill, that shows up fast — which is why a sudden bill spike should never be ignored.

Do you detect irrigation and outdoor line leaks too?

Yes. Buried yard lines, sprinkler feeds and the main service line from the meter to the house are all part of a complete water leak inspection. Soggy ground that never dries is a typical sign of an outdoor line leak.

Will my walls have to be opened to find the leak?

Usually not for detection. Acoustic and infrared equipment locates leaks through walls and floors. If a repair requires access, it will be at the precise leak location rather than exploratory holes.
