Leak Detection FAQ — Hillsborough, SC

Answers to frequently asked leak detection questions from Hillsborough homeowners.

How do I know if I have a hidden water leak in my Hillsborough home?

Signs of a hidden water leak in Hillsborough homes include an unexplained increase in your monthly water bill, the sound of running water when all fixtures are off, musty or mildew odors in walls or cabinets, discoloration or bubbling paint, soft spots in walls or flooring, and visible mold growth. If you notice any of these signs, call Magnet Plumbing for professional leak detection.

What causes hidden pipe leaks in Hillsborough homes?

Hidden pipe leaks in Hillsborough are commonly caused by pinhole corrosion in copper pipes from local water chemistry, failed pipe joints from age or movement, improper original installation, high water pressure stressing pipe walls, and physical damage from renovation work. Homes built before 1990 with original copper or galvanized pipes are most susceptible to hidden leaks.

Can you detect leaks under my concrete slab in Hillsborough?

Yes. Magnet Plumbing provides slab leak detection throughout Hillsborough, SC using electronic leak detection amplifiers and thermal imaging cameras that reveal temperature anomalies caused by water escaping under the foundation. We can pinpoint slab leak locations with precision, reducing the concrete cutting needed for repair.

What happens if a hidden leak goes undetected in Hillsborough?

Undetected hidden leaks in Hillsborough homes cause progressive water damage to framing, insulation, and drywall. Within 24 to 48 hours moisture enables mold growth. Over weeks and months a hidden leak can cause structural damage, rot wood framing, destroy flooring, and create significant mold contamination — all while your water bill climbs steadily.
