What to Have Ready Before You Call
To help us assess your plumbing situation and determine the appropriate testing equipment before dispatching a diagnostic specialist, having a few details on hand is helpful:
- Observed Moisture Symptoms: Are you seeing active water dripping, damp drywall, paint blistering, warped flooring, or persistent musty odors?
- Water Meter Activity: Have you checked your water meter dial while all indoor faucets and appliances are turned off? Is the low-flow indicator stationary or steadily spinning?
- Building Type & Age: Is the property a single-family home, a townhouse, a multi-story co-op, or a high-rise condominium unit along Palisade Avenue?
- Recent Utility Bills: If your inquiry was triggered by an unexpected billing jump, having your current and previous consumption figures helps us calculate estimated gallons lost per hour.

Call (201) 510-1615Crucial Safety Steps to Take While Awaiting Your Specialist
Before your scheduled non-invasive acoustic or infrared diagnostic inspection, take these immediate precautions to safeguard your property and occupants:
-
Isolate the Water Supply if Leaking Actively
If water is actively escaping, turn off the local fixture stop valve or shut off the main water valve located near your water meter or utility entrance.
-
Shut Off Electricity to Affected Damp Zones
Never enter rooms with standing water if power is active. Turn off the relevant circuit breakers at your main electrical service panel to prevent electrical shock hazards.
-
Protect Floor Finishes & Valuables
Place plastic containers or buckets underneath active ceiling drips. Move furniture, rugs, electronics, and documents away from moisture areas to prevent secondary mold exposure.
-
Do Not Cut Random Exploratory Holes in Drywall
Resist the urge to start cutting into walls with drywall saws. Water travels along studs and pipes, so cutting where you see a stain often misses the actual leak point and creates unnecessary drywall repair expenses.
Our diagnostic service is exclusively dedicated to potable water, drainage, and hydronic heating line diagnostics. If you smell natural gas (a rotten-egg odor) or suspect a gas line breach, immediately evacuate all occupants from the building, do not operate light switches or electronics, and call PSE&G or 911 from outside the structure.
