A water bill that climbs with no change in usage, a musty smell, a soft or discolored patch on a wall or ceiling, or a meter still spinning when every fixture is off are the usual signs of a hidden leak. The cause is often a pinhole leak in aging copper, a joint that's worked loose, or a slab leak where a supply line under the foundation has corroded.

If you can see or hear active water where you shouldn't, shut off the main water supply valve until someone can look at it, and avoid cutting into drywall or flooring yourself, since it can make finding the source harder. A sagging ceiling, an outlet near moisture, or water pooling on a slab floor mean it's time to stop and call rather than wait for it to dry out.

Leak Detection & Repair FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Leak Detection & Repair

Questions we hear most often about Leak Detection & Repair in Lower Brule, SD.

Talk to a real person
Why does my water heater's pilot light keep going out?
A pilot that won't stay lit is usually a failed thermocouple, the small sensor that tells the gas valve a flame is present. When it wears out, the valve shuts off the gas as a safety measure, even though you keep relighting it. Do not keep manually holding the pilot lit or forcing the gas valve. Shut the gas supply if you smell any odor and leave the area. This is a repair for a professional, not a DIY project. Call (844) 898-0295 and describe the symptoms to get connected with an independent local plumber.
Why is my water heater making popping or rumbling noises?
Popping, rumbling, or cracking sounds usually mean sediment has built up on the lower heating element or at the bottom of the tank. As water heats underneath that layer, it creates steam pockets that pop as they escape, and the trapped sediment makes the tank work harder and heat less efficiently. Hard water speeds up this kind of mineral buildup. It will not go away on its own and can shorten the tank's life. Call (844) 898-0295 and describe the noise to get connected with an independent local plumber who can inspect or flush the tank.
Why is water dripping from the pipe on top of my water heater?
That pipe usually runs from the pressure relief valve, and a steady drip often means the valve is doing its job by releasing pressure that has nowhere else to go. A common cause is a failed expansion tank that no longer absorbs the extra pressure created when water heats up. Shut the cold supply valve on top of the tank if the dripping is heavy or the tank feels excessively hot. Do not ignore it, since pressure with nowhere to escape can be dangerous. Call (844) 898-0295 and describe what you are seeing in Lower Brule, SD.
How do I know if my sump pump is about to fail?
Listen for a pump that runs constantly, cycles on and off rapidly, or makes a grinding or humming noise without moving water. A pump that stays silent during heavy rain, or a pit that stays full instead of draining down, are also warning signs. Age matters too, since most pumps wear out after some years of regular use. Do not wait for a flooded basement to deal with it. If you are noticing any of these signs, or need a new sump pump installed, call (844) 898-0295 and describe the situation.
My water bill jumped and I can't find a leak. What should I do?
Start by shutting off every fixture in the house, then check the water meter. If the dial is still moving, water is escaping somewhere, possibly underground, inside a wall, or under a slab, even if no puddle is visible. A running toilet or a small slab leak can waste a surprising amount of water without any obvious sign. Do not just wait for the next bill to see if it drops. Call (844) 898-0295 and describe what your meter is doing to get connected with an independent local plumber who handles leak detection in Lower Brule, SD.
