What to Expect During a Commercial Leak Inspection
Every commercial property in Columbus has unique plumbing layouts and challenges. When you request an inspection from American Leak Detection of Western Georgia, our team starts by gathering information about your building, recent water bills, and any signs of moisture or structural changes. We then use advanced technology to map water lines and detect hidden leaks inside walls, ceilings, or beneath concrete slabs. Throughout the process, we communicate findings clearly, so property managers and owners understand where issues are located and how to address them.
We also check for compliance with Columbus and Muscogee County codes, since local authorities enforce strict regulations on water usage and property safety. This process helps you avoid penalties and supports positive relationships with utility agencies. Commercial buildings near flood-prone zones, such as those close to the Chattahoochee River, benefit from routine inspections as a preventive step. This work helps preserve buildings’ structural integrity and minimizes the risk of unexpected service disruptions.
Our approach focuses on efficiency: we limit interruptions, work around your schedule, and provide clear reports to support decisions. Our inspection process supports long-term savings for property owners and managers across the region.

“Caleb located the source of our problem under our slab. Response time was prompt. Clean and non-invasive procedure to test and locate the leak. Great work!”- Jerry T

“Ryan Jacobson found and fixed my pool liner leak, which as he described it, was the best-case scenario. The worst-case scenario would have been a leak in the pipes… That would have required busting up concrete to fix the leak. Luckily for me, he didn’t have to do that… Highly recommend American Leak Detection!”- Alfredo “JR” Gonzalez

“We had standing water on my front lawn for several months; we thought it was the irrigation system, so we called an irrigation specialist to check for leaks. He checked it and said the issue does not seem to be irrigation and suggested the local water works or a plumber service. We contacted a plumbing service, and they were unable to assist due to the size of my lawn - however, they recommended American Leak Detection. We contacted American Leak Detection (spoke with Ms. Annette) who dispatched a team out promptly, they performed their analysis and located the area of the leak. We got the plumber back out and the appropriate repairs were made to resolve our leak issues. We've dealt with service companies that promise to send someone out to address our issues, but they are either days and weeks later or they don't show up. American Leak Detection are true professionals from their request intake process through to job completion and after repair testing if needed. Their administrative staff and technicians have excellent interpersonal skills, and they show up when they say they will. I will refer them to family, friends and anyone else needing the services they provide.”- Ben J.

“Russell Speir is AWESOME. After introductions Russ had me explain what was going on. He was very interested in everything I had to say and discussed with me what the various symtoms of my leak indicated. He surveyed inside the house and the immediate area outside between the meter and the initial point of entry to the house. He shared with my wife and me the various steps and methods he would use. His equipment vehicle is in great shape and all of the equipment and tools inside the vehicle looked very clean, well maintained and in their place (a place for everything and everything in its place.) VERY professional. Russ was very patient and explained every procedure and step. Russ is extremely knowledgeable and willingly shares his expertise with you. I HIGHLY receommend American Leak Detection to everyone needing this service. Thank you Russell Speir. I greatly appreciate you and the service you provided. Best regards, M. Garcia”- M. Garcia
