Don’t Let a Water Leak Soak Your Wallet
January 28, 2014
If your water bill has gotten out of control and you don’t have the slightest idea why, the most reasonable explanation is you have some sort of water leak, either in your home or in your yard. While there may be some obvious signs that you have a problem, the solution may not be as clear-cut. At Benjamin Franklin Plumbing® of Dallas, we can not only find the cause of your leak, but we can also fix it quickly with a minimum of disruption to your property.
Finding the Culprit
First, check your floors and cabinets closely. If you notice any sort of buckling or peeling of tile, that could mean you have a water leak in your home. Left unchecked, even a minor leak can gradually cause wear which can lead to substantial damage, so it’s important you have the issue fixed as soon as you can.
However, it can be hard to find the exact cause of the water leak unless you have the right equipment. The old method of trial and error led to the need for extensive excavation, such as tearing out walls. New technology and equipment are available now, though, that can pinpoint the precise location of a leak so that repairs can be performed much faster and much more efficiently.
At Benjamin Franklin Plumbing® of Dallas we use sophisticated video camera equipment to find the cause of a water leak. This camera is attached to a flexible cable that moves through your plumbing. The camera transmits a high-quality image to a monitor that is watched by the plumber. Once he knows where the problem lies, he can take care of any necessary repairs much quicker than before.
