Most residential leak detection jobs in Schenectady are completed in 1 to 3 hours depending on the size of the home and the number of areas to investigate.

Phoenician Plumbing schedules same-day or next-day leak detection appointments for Schenectady homeowners in most cases.
Phoenician Plumbing uses non-invasive leak detection technology in Schenectady, NY — thermal imaging cameras that reveal moisture behind walls, electronic acoustic listeners that amplify the sound of escaping water, and moisture meters that confirm wet areas without any cutting or drilling. We locate the leak first, then make only the access needed to repair it.
Hidden pipe leaks in Schenectady 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.
