Water drops falling from a fitting against a dark background

Free to homeowners in Takoma Park — the contractor pays us for the introduction, you never do.

The short answer

In Takoma Park, 20% of housing was built before 1940. A bill that climbs with nothing damp indoors points to the private side of the meter, outside the building, where water drains away without ever showing.

Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey, table B25034, five-year estimates. A margin of error is published alongside every estimate.

20% of Takoma Park housing predates 1940. Listening equipment locates a buried leak before anything is opened, which is the sensible order to do this in.

What this site is

AcousticLeak is a referral service, not a contractor. We connect homeowners with independent contractors. Contractors are required to hold whatever credential their state or municipality demands. We carry out no work and no leak location, we do not set prices, and we never charge homeowners anything — the contractors in our network pay us when we route them a call. Nothing here is a statement about what your own utility will credit; only your utility can tell you that.

What we will not say

Nothing on this page is a statement about the water, the pipes or the bill at any particular address. Only a test at the property can establish any of those.

How it is actually found

Acoustic listening on the fittings, then correlation between two points on the line, narrows a leak to within a meter or so before anything is opened. Ground-penetrating and tracer-gas methods follow where listening cannot.
