Electronic Leak Detection (ELD)

Electronic leak detection — low-voltage and high-voltage methods — pinpoints membrane breaches on flat and low-slope roof assemblies. Low-voltage (vector mapping) works through standing water on conductive substrates; high-voltage (spark testing) finds pinholes on dry, non-conductive membranes. We deliver these for new-construction membrane acceptance testing, post-installation due diligence, and leak investigation on existing roofs.

How to prepare for your visit

1. Document what you're seeing. Photos, dates, sounds, water-bill changes, anything unusual. The more we know in advance, the faster we can locate.
2. Clear access to the suspected area. Move furniture, stored items, and rugs. Non-invasive methods still need clear sightlines.
3. Have system history ready. Recent plumbing work, prior leaks, renovations, age of property, prior insurance claims.
