Professional Leak Detection Work
Performance Plus Plumbing LLC is your go-to plumbing contractor for the region’s most efficient leak detection services. Plumbing leaks can occur in various areas, but some common locations include:
- Faucets and Sink Fixtures: Leaks can occur at the faucet's aerator, cartridge, or O-ring, as well as around the drain assembly.
- Toilets : Leaks can occur at the tank-to-bowl connection, flapper, or fill valve.
- Water Heaters: Leaks can occur around the temperature and pressure relief valve, drain valve, or tank-to-piping connections.
- Showerheads and Shower Valves: Leaks can occur at the showerhead's O-ring or gasket, or around the shower valve's stem and packing.
- Pipe Joints and Fittings: Leaks can occur where pipes are connected to fittings, such as elbows, tees, or couplings.
- Water Supply Lines: Leaks can occur at the connection points between the water supply lines and appliances, fixtures, or pipes.
- Drain Lines: Leaks can occur in drain lines, especially around trap seals, vent pipes, or P-traps.
- Water Meter : Leaks can occur around the water meter's connection to the main line or within the meter itself.
- Irrigation Systems : Leaks can occur in irrigation systems, especially at valves, sprinklers, or drip irrigation emitters.
- Refrigeration Systems : Leaks can occur in refrigeration systems, such as commercial ice machines or refrigerators, around the condenser coils, evaporator coils, or compressor seals.
- Appliance Connections : Leaks can occur at the connections between appliances and water supply lines, such as dishwashers or washing machines.
- Piping Insulation : Leaks can occur where piping insulation is damaged or worn out, allowing moisture to seep into the system.
These are some of the most common areas where plumbing leaks can occur. Regular maintenance and inspections can help identify potential issues before they become major problems. Our team is available seven days a week to handle any plumbing leak. Call (925) 455-1777 today to get started!
The Procedure
We use various methods to detect leaks in pipes, fixtures, and appliances. Here are some of the techniques we utilize:
- Visual Inspection: We inspect the pipes, fittings, and connections visually to identify any signs of moisture, water spots, or mineral deposits, which can indicate a leak.
- Water Pressure Testing: Our team uses a pressure test kit to pressurize the system and detect leaks by listening for hissing sounds or feeling for pressure changes.
- Acoustic Leak Detection: Specialized equipment is used to listen for the sound of leaks, which can be difficult, if not impossible in some cases, to hear otherwise.
- Thermal Imaging: Our infrared cameras will detect temperature changes in pipes, which can indicate a leak or water damage.
- Dye Testing: A dye is injected into the system and observed to detect leaks or slow-moving water.
- Pressure Testing With Air: We use compressed air to pressurize the system and detect leaks by listening to the hissing sounds.
- Hydrostatic Testing: Water is pumped into the system to test for leaks and measure the pressure.
- Vacuum Testing: We create a vacuum in the system to detect leaks by listening to any hissing sounds.
- Leak Detection Meters: We have state-of-the-art, specialized meters to detect leaks by measuring changes in water pressure, flow rate, or temperature.
- Non-Destructive Testing (NDT): These techniques include acoustic emission testing, eddy current testing, or radiography to detect leaks without damaging the pipes or fixtures.

“I had an issue with a brand new water heater and Performance Plus was recommended by the manufacturer, and they came out as soon as they could and were able to replace the thermostat and burner assembly in about an hour with no issues. They were great to work with and I would use them again.”
