Smoke Testing for Commercial & Municipal Properties

Leak Detection Without Destruction™

When it comes to leak detection and services, many individuals trust plumbers who may not have the adequate knowledge and experience with commercial leaks. Too often, business owners and property managers spend a fortune with these servicemen digging holes trying to find the leak. At American Leak Detection we specialize in leak detection and repairs offering unique insight and using cutting-edge technology. Our non-invasive practices mean you don’t have to worry about property destruction.

One of the most effective methods we use for leak detection is smoke testing. Smoke testing is the process of injecting artificially produced smoke into pipelines to see where the smoke comes out. If the pipe is in good health, the smoke will come out through manhole lids. If there are breaks or leaks in the pipe, we will be able to detect them because the smoke will emerge in places it shouldn’t.

Smoke testing is a relatively harmless method to locate leaks, without having to break ground. Our leak detection specialists have years of experience handling this system and use it to help commercial property owners and municipal building managers find and fix their leaks.

    "They came in, investigated with smoke, and fixed the problem. For the first time in two months, my house doesn't smell like a restaurant toilet."
    “I had an awful rotten egg smell as soon as I bought our house. After calling two plumbers (who charged me a fee to tell me nothing was wrong), the Gas Company (no gas leak), and the Public Works Department, I finally called American Leak Detection. They came in, investigated with smoke, and fixed the problem. For the first time in two months, my house doesn't smell like a restaurant toilet. Highly recommend them!”
    - Sandi T.
    "I can't say enough good things about their service!"
    “I can't say enough good things about their service! We had a slab leak that flooded the master bedroom and they came as quickly as they could and then rearranged their work schedule so the repair could be made and we could once again have water turned on. The workmen were professional and efficient. I hope I never have to use that kind of service again but if so, they are he best.”
    - Carolyn R.
    "After 30 years in this house, we have had many service people come to do work. No one has ever delivered better than Daniel."
    “Tree roots had cracked my filter pipes and I was losing water badly. I was referred to American Leak Detection and set up an appointment. Daniel came out and did his best to diagnose the problem. He got very strange results and it was hard to determine the exact pipe(s) that were cracked but since I'd had a similar repair done 6 years ago and we could see evidence of the tree root damage from above, I felt confident we knew were the issue was and I contracted for the work. I was pleasantly surprised to see Daniel return to perform the work. I arranged to be home that day so I could see what he found. I supposed I hovered, taking pictures of the process, asking questions as he went along. He never got annoyed and answered every question with a smile. I don't think i ever saw anyone work harder. It was obvious from that start he had a lot of experience and knew what he was doing. Digging out the area had to be done mostly by hand which he did efficiently without complaints. He found multiple pipes cracked which explained the odd results during diagnosis. The job took longer than expected because it was difficult work and he ran out of daylight but on the job until he it wasn't possible anymore that day. Even though he was fully booked for the following day, his company rearranged his schedule so he could return the following afternoon. I returned home early from work and was able to see him complete the job. He even patched the deck with new concrete like an artisan, taking every care to make it as smooth and neat as possible. After 30 years in this house, we have had many service people come to do work. No one has ever delivered better than Daniel. He was competent, diligent, and pleasant. The cost wasn't cheap but it was fair. I don't mind at all paying for quality service.”
