Is there a damp spot on the wall that won't go away, or is the wall damp for no apparent reason? You may have a hidden leak in a pipe embedded inside the wall. This is a problem that gets progressively worse and requires a specialized diagnosis to be resolved without unnecessary construction work. The Canalizador de Lisboa It locates hidden leaks in walls using state-of-the-art equipment—a thermal imaging camera and an endoscopic camera—without making unnecessary openings.
How to Identify a Hidden Leak in the Wall
- A damp spot that is gradually getting larger
- Paint peeling or blistering in a specific area of the wall
- A wall that feels cold or damp to the touch, even when it isn't raining
- A musty smell in one area of the room
- An increase in the water bill with no apparent reason
How We Locate the Leak Without Causing Damage
With thermal camera, we can see the temperature variations on the wall's surface caused by the presence of water—identifying the exact location of the leak without touching the wall covering. In more complex cases, we also use the endoscopic camera to inspect the inside of the pipes. Only after pinpointing the exact location do we open them—and only as much as is strictly necessary.
What happens if it isn't treated in time?
- The dampness gets worse, and mold takes hold on the wall
- The coating deteriorates and repair costs rise
- Water can seep into the structure and cause serious damage
- The neighbor downstairs is starting to see stains on the ceiling
