How to identify a leak?
Identifying a leak can be tricky, but it's important to know the signs of a leak. A good place to start looking for leaks is in and around your water meter as this area can often contain leaks from long-term wear on plumbing pipes or joints that have opened up over time. You may also notice drips coming from under your sinks or toilet which are indicative of leaking supply lines.
Confirm you do indeed have a leak by turning off all sources of water downstream: stop using household taps, showerheads, etc., then look at where the dripping has stopped - if there's still any dripping going on after shutting down everything upstream (such as toilet flushing), you should call an emergency plumber immediately!
Preventative measures for future leaks (weather stripping, caulking)
To ensure there are no future leaks, you can use caulking or weather stripping to seal up any gaps that are causing a water leak.
If your problem is coming from the wall behind the toilet (or anywhere else where it's hard for you to get at), ask us about our Leak Locator service which we find by detecting tiny changes in pressure caused by leaking pipes; this will pinpoint exactly where there's a leak and whether or not there are other areas of concern too.
Here are few tips to Prevent future leaks :
-Remember to turn off the water before leaving home for an extended period of time. (For example, if you're going on vacation)
-Try not to let dishes pile up in your dishwasher because this will cause a build up of scum which can lead to leaks and other problems down the road.
-Check pipes regularly for any damage or potential signs that they could burst: If there's anything unusual with your plumbing system, call us right away!

Reviews
"The plumber and supervisor showed up on time!! 5mins early in fact. Courteous and hard-working. Removed and installed my tankless system. Consulted/recommended options for the install."
"After 4 different plumbing companies/people no-showed, I hired Plumbing Heroes to take care of my uninstall/reinstall of my EcoSmart Tankless Water Heater. Their price quote was equivalent to the other companies and they booked right away."
"Prices are inclusive: charge by the job so it includes labor and materials. I did supply some materials and unit for tankless install."
