Hill Country’s Underground Leak Detection Experts
What Is Hydrostatic Pressure Testing
A key method for sewer leak detection, hydrostatic pressure testing blocks off sections of your sanitary sewer system to test water pressure. The process begins with a video camera inspection to assess the sewer system. If the footage suggests possible leaks or weaknesses, our team moves forward with hydrostatic pressure testing.
How Does Hydrostatic Pressure Testing Detect Sewer Leaks
First, we block off certain sections of the sewer system with inflatable test balls. This lets us isolate the exact area we need to check without disturbing the rest of your plumbing.
Once the section is sealed, we carefully fill the pipes with water up to the level of the lowest drain in your home. From there, we monitor the water level closely.
If the water stays steady, your system is in good shape. But if it drops quickly or doesn’t reach the right level to begin with, low pressure is a clear sign that there may be a hidden leak or structural issue in your sewer lines.
Hydrostatic pressure testing is a non-invasive diagnostic method, meaning we don’t have to tear up your yard or floors to find the problem. Instead, you get a precise diagnosis before a small leak turns into foundation damage, mold growth, or costly repairs down the road.
This testing gives our licensed plumbers a clear picture of your sewer system’s condition without unnecessary excavation. Our diagnosis allows us to recommend the right repair solution the first time.
