Whole House Water Leak Test in Palm Beach County

Why test for hidden leaks?

A standard home inspection is visual. It can find stains, damp materials and active drips, but it can't see inside walls, under a slab or underground, where many Florida plumbing leaks start. A slow leak in concealed piping can run for months before it shows, and by then it may have caused water damage, mold-friendly conditions or a high water bill.

What the test does

A whole house water leak test is a specialized plumbing diagnostic evaluation designed to identify potential hidden water loss within the home's plumbing system, including concealed piping in walls, beneath floors, and underground. This additional testing can reveal indications of leaks that may not be apparent during a standard visual home inspection.

When it's worth adding

• Older homes, or homes with original plumbing
• Slab-on-grade homes, where supply lines run under the floor
• Homes that have been vacant, or where the seller reports past leaks
• Any purchase where you want more certainty than a visual inspection can give

If the test shows indications of a leak, our report explains what was found so you can arrange further evaluation by a licensed plumber before closing.
