Frequently asked questions

How do I know I have a hidden water leak in Alshinan?

Watch for: an unexplained water-bill spike, damp patches or peeling paint, and a meter spinning while all taps are closed. Any of these calls for electronic detection.

Does leak detection require demolition?

Usually not. Acoustic and thermal devices and inspection cameras locate the leak precisely; only the repair spot is opened.

How long does a home leak inspection take?

Typically one to three hours depending on home size and suspected points, and you receive a written report.

Is a ground-tank leak serious?

Yes — it can mix with groundwater and silently affect foundations. Signs: constant water-level drop and dampness around the tank.
