The place where water becomes visible isn’t necessarily where the leak started. Plumbing can run behind walls, through cabinets and between different areas of a property.
Proflow inspects the affected area and plumbing system to help identify the likely source before determining the appropriate repair.

LEAK DETECTION FAQ
Questions About Plumbing Leaks
How do I know if I have a hidden plumbing leak?
Possible signs include unexplained damp areas, water stains, unusual water sounds, musty odours or unexpected changes in water use. These signs can have different causes, so the affected area should be inspected to determine the source.
Can the visible water be coming from somewhere else?
Yes. Water can travel along building materials and plumbing before becoming visible, which means the place where you see moisture may not be the exact location of the leak.
Do you repair the leak after locating it?
Proflow provides plumbing repair as well as leak detection. The appropriate repair depends on the source and condition of the affected plumbing.
Is a leaking pipe an emergency?
A major active leak, burst pipe or leak that is causing significant water damage may require urgent attention. Proflow provides 24/7 emergency plumbing service.
Do you provide leak detection for businesses?
Yes. Proflow provides plumbing services for both residential and commercial properties.
