When a homeowner in Spring Valley Lake, Victorville, CA contacted 24/7 Plumbing & Rooter, they were dealing with a serious water leak. Water was flooding a room inside the home, while moisture and water were also appearing through the walls and concrete outside.
Our plumber shows the pinpointed location of a hidden pinhole leak discovered during an emergency leak detection investigation in Spring Valley Lake, Victorville, CA, using professional leak detection equipment.
Because the visible water damage did not clearly identify where the leak was coming from, our plumber performed a detailed leak detection investigation to locate the source.
Investigating the Hidden Water Leak
One of the biggest challenges with plumbing leaks is that the location where water appears is not always where the leak actually starts.
Water can travel through walls, flooring, concrete, and other areas before becoming visible. That’s why simply repairing the first wet area you see may not solve the actual problem.
During this investigation, we determined that the wall needed to be opened so we could continue tracing the source of the water.
The Source: A Pinhole Plumbing Leak
After opening the wall and continuing the investigation, we discovered the actual source of the problem — a small pinhole leak in the plumbing line.
Although the opening in the pipe was extremely small, it was releasing enough water to create significant water intrusion inside the home.
This is a great example of how a seemingly small plumbing failure can turn into a much larger water damage problem.
