How Can I Find a Water Leak Inside a Wall or Ceiling?

Look for stains, soft spots, bubbling paint, or a musty smell on the wall or ceiling. Shut off suspected fixtures one at a time and watch the water meter; movement with fixtures off points to a leak. We install Honeywell water alarms that alert with as little as 1/16 inch of water and provide on-site leak detection and repair in Scranton. Same-day plumbing repair is available.

  • Check the floor below or space above the stain.
  • If an alarm sounds, call a licensed plumber.
