Leaks can happen overnight and without warning. One day, you’re spending time in your Brooklyn brownstone or Manhattan residence, and suddenly the pipe bursts. How do you deal with it? You call an experienced residential leak detection plumber who can locate the source and remediate it effectively.
Because you can’t access the pipes deep inside your home, you need a leak detection plumber who specializes in leak detection. Leaking pipes require serious expertise to find, remove, and fix, so it’s best to call a leak detection specialist the second you suspect one.
At Boris Mechanical, we get a plumber on site in a matter of hours. If you don’t attend to your burst pipe, cracked foundation, or overflowing toilet quickly, it can result in significant, costly damage. If you’re in need of a licensed plumber who can repair your entire plumbing system, call Boris Mechanical.
Common Causes of Residential Leaks
While you can’t prevent a residential or structural leak, you can take note of the signs. Maybe it’s a continuous bathroom sink faucet dripping water, or a dishwasher that can’t seem to complete a full cycle without leaking. Either way, these are clear signs that your outlets need more than a simple fix.
NYC residents should contact our team of plumbing and leak detection specialists for repair services and beyond if they experience any of the following leak symptoms:
- Worn Out Pipes / Sealant
- Corroded or Rusted Pipes
- Cracked Toilet Tanks
- Loose Washing Machine Hoses
- Under The Sink Pipe Failure
- Foundation Cracks
Although most of these are 100% repairable, some can affect your home’s foundation, which can be costly to fix. This is why receiving routine, comprehensive plumbing inspections can help prevent large-scale issues like groundwater intrusion.

Leak Detection FAQs
What is leak detection?
Leak detection at Boris Mechanical is the process of uncovering hidden or ongoing leaks that you cannot locate at home. Using professional detection tools, we find even the smallest leaks, typically hidden behind walls, floors, or beneath your home’s foundation.
What leak detection services do you offer?
We offer common residential leak-detection services, including underground waterline detection and emergency leak detection. Even better, NYC residents can receive preventative leak detection so that they do not have to struggle with unplanned water presence.
Will a water leak show on my water meter?
Yes! In most cases, your water meter will show present leaks. Try turning all appliances off and see if the meter is still spinning. If it is, you have a residential leak that needs immediate resolution.
How long does a typical leak detection service take?
A typical leak detection service at Boris Mechanical can take between 1 to 2 hours, although this will largely depend on the type of leak present and the size of your property.
