Leak Detection Services in New Port Richey, FL

A sudden spike in your water bill often signals a hidden leak somewhere in your plumbing system. Our whole-home water leak detection service checks every accessible water line, fixture connection, and valve in your home. We use pressure testing to isolate sections of your plumbing and identify where water loss is occurring.

This service is especially valuable for older homes in the New Port Richey area, where galvanized or copper pipes may have corroded over decades of use. We test the entire system so nothing gets missed.

Many homes in Florida are built on concrete slab foundations. Water lines running beneath that slab can develop leaks from corrosion, ground shifting, or poor original installation. Slab leak detection requires specialized equipment because the leak is hidden under inches of concrete.

Our plumbers use acoustic listening devices to detect the sound of water escaping pressurized pipes below the slab. We combine this with thermal imaging to identify temperature differences on the floor surface that indicate pooling water underneath. This approach lets us mark the leak location accurately before any concrete is cut.

Water stains on drywall, bubbling paint, or a musty smell in a room, these are common signs of a pipe leak behind a wall or above a ceiling. Our team uses infrared thermal cameras to scan wall and ceiling surfaces for moisture patterns that aren't visible to the naked eye.

Once we identify the affected area, we can often confirm the leak with a small access point rather than removing large sections of drywall. This minimizes damage to your home and keeps repair costs lower.

Sewer line leaks can cause foul odors, slow drains, and soggy patches in your yard. We perform sewer line camera inspections by feeding a waterproof video camera through your drain system. The camera displays real-time footage of the pipe interior, showing cracks, root intrusion, joint separations, and blockages.

This method eliminates guesswork. We see the exact location and cause of the problem on screen, which means we can recommend the most effective repair, whether that's a spot repair, pipe lining, or full replacement.

Water leaks in commercial buildings create different challenges than residential leaks. A leak in a restaurant, retail space, or office building can disrupt operations, damage inventory, and create liability concerns. R.J. Kielty provides commercial leak detection services for businesses of all sizes.

We work around your business hours when possible and use non-invasive detection methods to minimize disruption. Our team has experience with commercial plumbing systems, including larger supply lines, multi-story drain systems, and fire suppression lines.

A pool that loses more than a quarter inch of water per day (beyond normal evaporation) likely has a leak. We test pool shells, plumbing connections, return lines, and skimmer fittings to find the source. Irrigation systems can also develop underground leaks at joints, valves, or damaged pipe sections.

Our leak detection process for pools and irrigation lines uses pressure testing and dye testing to confirm leak locations. Early detection prevents water waste and protects your landscaping from erosion or oversaturation.

The supply line between your water meter and your home is your responsibility as a homeowner, not the utility company's. Leaks along this buried line can waste significant amounts of water without any visible sign inside your home.

We perform water meter leak testing by shutting off all fixtures and monitoring the meter for movement. If the meter continues to register flow, we trace the supply line to locate the leak. This simple test can save you hundreds of dollars in monthly water bills.
