Meter Test

Make sure there is no water being used in or around the house.
 
Locate your water meter and write down the numbers on the meter. (The Water Meter is usually located in the front of the house in a covered box)
After 30 minutes to an hour have passed, check the numbers on the meter.

If the numbers have not changed then you do not have a pressurized leak. If the numbers do change, the next step is to shut off all the toilet water valves in the house and repeat steps 1-3.

If the numbers do not change at this point then your toilets my need to be serviced. If the numbers have changed, you’re most likely leaking and should look into getting a leak detection as soon as possible in order to prevent any further damage to your home.

Here are some of the most common leak symptoms:

Sink holes in the yard
Wet carpet
Water coming up from between grout lines
Abnormal foundation settling
Hot spots on floor
Sounds of constant water running
Signs of mold or mildew
