Here is how we handle every leak detection project in Evanston.
Our Evanston technician evaluates the evidence — water bill spikes, damp spots, meter behavior, and visible damage — to form an initial hypothesis about the leak type and location.
Pipe Masters uses advanced leak detection technology at your Evanston property. We listen for leak sounds through acoustic sensors, detect temperature anomalies with thermal cameras, and verify locations with electronic equipment.
Once the leak is located, we confirm the finding and present repair options. Depending on the location and severity, options may include spot repair, section replacement, pipe rerouting, or epoxy lining.
Our Evanston plumber executes the repair and confirms success with a pressure test of the repaired section. We verify no additional leaks exist in connected lines before restoring full water pressure.
