Leak Detection in Archer: common questions
Do you provide a report for my insurance?
Yes. You get written findings with photos and the location marked, which is what most carriers ask for.
What is a slab leak?
A leak in a supply line running under the concrete foundation. It is common in Archer homes on slab and it shows up as warm flooring, unexplained water use or damp carpet edges.
Can you detect a pool or irrigation leak?
Yes, and it is worth ruling those out early because they often present as a mystery water bill with no wet spot anywhere in the house.
Will you have to break up my floor to find it?
No. Location comes first, using acoustic listening and thermal imaging, and we mark the spot on the surface. Only then does anything get opened, and the opening stays as small as the repair allows.
How do I know I have a hidden leak?
Shut every fixture off and watch the meter. If the low-flow indicator still turns, water is going somewhere. A bill that jumped without a change in habits, a warm spot on the floor, or the sound of running water with everything off are the other common signs.
My drain keeps clogging even after it is cleared. Why?
Repeat clogs in the same line usually mean the line itself has a problem: roots at a joint, a belly holding water, scale in old cast iron, or a break. Cabling clears the symptom. A camera inspection tells you the cause, and we run one on main line calls so you are not paying for the same visit every few months.
What areas around Archer do you cover?
We cover Archer itself plus the surrounding communities across Gainesville, Ocala and the surrounding counties, and we run in every incorporated city in Florida. If you are unsure whether your street is covered, call and give us the cross streets.
