How Infrared Leak Detection Works & Why It Matters
Infrared leak detection uses advanced cameras to spot temperature changes that signal hidden moisture. When a water leak happens, it shifts the thermal signature inside walls, ceilings, or floors. Our imaging tools record those patterns and help us identify the leak’s origin—even when you can’t see it. Through this process, you gain several key advantages:
- Locate concealed water leaks: Find leaks in pipes, roofs, walls, or foundations while minimizing damage to finished surfaces
- Detect moisture buildup: Reveal damp areas that can lead to mold or structural concerns if left untreated
- Identify insulation problems: Discover energy losses that drive up utility costs and affect comfort
- Assess plumbing performance: Evaluate trouble spots quickly for a more informed repair plan
We serve property managers, homeowners, commercial clients, and municipal organizations throughout Baltimore with this detailed, non-invasive method. Infrared leak detection works on older buildings, new construction, and anywhere that water intrusion could mean bigger repairs.
Thermal imaging also supports sustainability by helping Baltimore properties save water and energy. Our technology registers minor temperature shifts, so we often find leaks early—sometimes before you see other signs. Catching leaks quickly reduces costly restoration or insurance issues in areas with aging infrastructure. Because our approach limits guesswork, we reduce unnecessary demolition and help keep your property’s disruption to a minimum.

“It was not easy finding a leak detection service. Almost all of the plumbers that I called did not know of any service that did leak detection for pipes under concrete. I even called my insurance company. More plumbers and insurance companies need to know who you are and what you can do. Being a senior citizen with mobility issues, I don't always see what is happening with certain areas of my home. Mr. Hopkins was very pleasant to work with, he was most helpful in finding and describing to me in terms that I could understand things that should be done to correct my water leakage problem. I am in the process now of having a contractor correct these issues. How nice it is to once again have dry floors. I would like to thank Mr. Hopkins once again for his help and kindness.”- Pat M.
