Galvanized Pipe Leak job in St. Petersburg
This image shows a significant underground leak from a galvanized pipe in a homeowner’s yard in St. Petersburg, which resulted in an unexpectedly high water bill. Despite the severity of the leak, there were no visible signs of water pooling in the yard because the sandy Florida soil absorbed all the excess water. This type of hidden leak can be especially difficult to detect, causing water bills to spike without any noticeable damage. Our team at I Find Leaks specializes in locating these hard-to-detect leaks, using advanced technology.

Did you receive a notice?
In some cities and counties, the water department may leave a blue notice on your door, indicating that your water usage is higher than normal. This is often a sign that a high water bill is on the way. If there’s no visible water inside your home or yard but your bill is unusually high, you may have a hidden slab leak. Slab leaks can be difficult to detect without professional equipment, but our team can help locate the source quickly and efficiently to prevent further damage.
Is Your Water Bill High Due to a Leak?
If your water bill has increased by more than 20% without any significant changes to your routine—such as adjusting your sprinkler system or hosting guests—there’s a strong chance you may have a hidden leak. By comparing your water usage from previous months, you can easily identify unusual spikes on your bill. If you suspect a leak, give us a call, and we’ll quickly help you locate and resolve the issue.
In many cases, our customers in Pinellas County and Hillsborough County can submit forms to their local water authority after a leak is found. Depending on the city, you may be eligible to receive a credit on your water bill to offset the extra charges caused by the leak. However, it’s important to note that the decision to grant a credit lies with the city, and you should follow their specific guidelines. We’re here to assist you in the process and ensure your leak is properly documented for submission.
Check Your Water Meter
One of the first places we check for hidden water leaks is your water meter. If the small red triangle or blue dial is spinning even when no water is being used in your home, this is a clear sign that you have a leak. A common culprit we often find is a running toilet. To check for this, simply remove the tank lid and listen closely near the valve. If you hear a hissing sound, it’s likely the valve needs to be replaced. We can refer a trusted plumbing company that balances both quality and cost.

St. Petersburg High Water Bill? How Tyler Pinpointed a Slab Leak Without Destroying the Home
A sudden high water bill in St. Petersburg is rarely “just the city.” In many cases, it is a hidden water leak—often an underground leak or slab leak—silently running day and night. When that happens, the damage you can’t see is usually the most expensive. This job is a great example of how professional leak detection prevents unnecessary demolition. Tyler, one of our experienced technicians at iFindLeaks.com, followed a step-by-step process to isolate the leak location accurately—so the home didn’t get torn apart by guesswork. If you are in St. Petersburg dealing with a high-water bill, unexplained moisture, warm spots on the floor, or suspected slab leaks, this is exactly how a proper investigation should look. Why St. Petersburg High Water Bills Often Point to Slab Leaks and Underground Leaks In Florida, many homes have plumbing routed through or beneath the slab. When a supply line develops a failure—often involving materials like copper piping—water can travel under flooring, behind walls, or into the soil long before any visible damage appears. That is why slab leak detection and underground leak detection require specialized tools, not assumptions. A key point: moisture patterns and “hot spots” can show where water is moving, but
Northeast St. Petersburg Water Leak Found Without Tearing Up the Home
In Northeast St. Petersburg, the homes are beautiful for a reason. Many neighborhoods developed in distinct phases, from early coastal construction to post-war expansion, resulting in solid Florida homes with character, custom finishes, and long-standing plumbing systems. That mix of eras matters when you’re dealing with a water leak. Plumbing materials, installation standards, and layouts varied over time, and many homes in Northeast St. Petersburg still rely on copper supply lines installed decades ago. This case highlights why accurate leak detection is critical. Guessing leads to unnecessary damage. Precision leads to a single access point and a clear repair plan. Starting Non-Invasive to Protect the Home The homeowner contacted I Find Leaks after noticing signs of moisture but wanted to avoid tearing into finished surfaces without certainty. The home featured custom baseboards and wood flooring, so preserving the interior was a priority. Jeremy began with non-invasive infrared scanning to look for temperature differences that can indicate hidden moisture. This step allows us to gather data before making any cuts. Jeremy uses an infrared camera to inspect a wood floor corner near custom baseboards before any cutting is done.

St. Petersburg Water Leak on Floor: Tracking the Source Without the Guesswork
When a homeowner in St. Petersburg saw water collecting on their bathroom floor, they did what most people would do — grabbed a few towels and hoped for the best. But after the second day of soggy floors and no visible source, they realized this wasn’t going to solve itself. They called I Find Leaks — and Jeremy, known as “The Leak Whisperer,” headed straight to the home. When Jeremy arrived, he found standing water on the bathroom floor with soaked towels between the shower and vanity. Right away, Jeremy spotted two soaked towels stuffed between the vanity and shower. There was no visible water flowing from anywhere obvious, but the fact that the towels were completely saturated told us something was active. That’s when we got to work. Jeremy uses an infrared camera to track a mysterious floor leak near the toilet in a St. Petersburg home. Using advanced thermal imaging tools, Jeremy began scanning the floor around the toilet. Our infrared technology lets us see changes in temperature that often reveal hidden moisture. In small bathrooms like this, where multiple plumbing fixtures are close together, guessing isn’t an option — you need precise tools and experience. Jeremy scans
Jeremy the Leak Whisperer: Clearwater Water Leak Detection with Superhuman Precision
When most people look at a concrete wall, they see… a wall. When Jeremy from I Find Leaks looks at it, he sees what’s behind it. That’s why we call him the Leak Whisperer. This isn’t just a story about finding a leak — it’s a story about precision, intuition, and expertise coming together in one unforgettable Clearwater Beach job. The Mysterious Puddle It started with a call from a high-rise condo on Clearwater Beach. Maintenance had spotted water pooling near a large electrical panel by the fourth-floor elevator. They couldn’t see a leak. They couldn’t hear one. But something wasn’t right. Water pooling near a block wall and electrical panel—no visible source, just rising concern. Enter Jeremy. Step One: Survey the Battlefield Jeremy arrived on-site and began piecing together clues. Water doesn’t always travel in straight lines, especially in a concrete structure. Overhead, he noticed fire suppression lines wrapping around the trash chute — potential suspects. Ceiling-mounted fire lines became Jeremy’s first lead. Step Two: Use X-Ray Vision (Sort of) Before cutting anything open, Jeremy pulled out the FLIR infrared thermal camera — a key part of our non-invasive thermal and electronic leak detection process. It was time to
Inside the Chaos: Solving a Clearwater Water Leak in a Hoarder Home Without Tearing It Apart
It’s one thing to locate a water leak. It’s another to find it inside a Clearwater hoarder house so packed with clutter that you can’t even see the floor. That was the challenge our technician Jeremy faced on a recent Clearwater water leak call—one of the most difficult we’ve seen in years. The first room we entered was more obstacle course than living space. Shoes, stuffed animals, boxes, games, Publix bags, Tupperware—you name it, it was stacked from floor to ceiling. The floor wasn’t even visible. Inside a Clearwater hoarder home, our team was called in to find a hidden water leak beneath the layers of chaos. Adjacent to that room was the bathroom. Unfortunately, it wasn’t any better. The counter was jammed with deodorant, makeup, shampoo, and personal items. No room to maneuver, no visible space—just more clutter. The bathroom next to the hoarder room was no easier—every inch of counter space was packed with toiletries, making leak detection even more difficult. Jeremy began scanning the area using a FLIR handheld thermal camera—an essential tool for finding hidden moisture without needing to rip up floors or move mountains of debris. We trust infrared technology like this in challenging environments,
Hillsborough County High Water Bill? Tampa Leak Mystery Solved Inside a Forgotten Building

At I Find Leaks, we specialize in slab and underground leak detection across Hillsborough County, especially in Tampa. But even for our experienced team, this job would turn out to be one of the most disturbing, dangerous, and unforgettable cases we’ve ever handled.

The ball valve inside the home was working properly, which only deepened the mystery. The homeowners were adamant—the leak had to be outside.
