The Leak Doctor has seen the sweeping changes in the insurance industry in both Florida and Georgia. We understand the latest updates and have invested in the latest technology to find all types of water leaks, reduce insurance claim cost and increase client’s satisfaction.
Water pipes fall victim to rust, corrosion, age and weather. Corrosion occurs when acids found in water produce pits in the pipes, which eventually turn into pinhole size leaks.
Unfortunately corrosion and pinhole leaks can go unnoticed and cause significant damage. Slow dripping water between walls can make the perfect environment for bacteria, mildew and mold to grow.
A study done by the State of Maryland Task Force on Pinhole Leaks in Copper Plumbing defines a leak as, “the perforation of copper tube, pipe or fittings used for domestic water distribution as the result of pitting corrosion initiated on the interior/waterside surface with the subsequent leakage of water.”
Water Velocity plays an important role. If the water pressure is too high for the copper tubing it can erode the protective shielding, creating unprotected copper. This is more evident where the pipes are at tees and elbows, the location where the water changes direction.
The Leak Doctor strives for quality performance with electronically generated reports, clearly written with all the details, available within 24 hours. Photographs taken before and after for documentation and communication with the adjuster while on the job site about the findings.
