Leak Checks for Landlords and Property Managers in Sparks
A leak in a rental does not wait for someone to notice it. Tenants report late, vacant units sit unnoticed, and second homes go months without a visit. We inspect the property, find the leak, and leave you a written report for your records.
Your property, checked before the damage spreads
When you live in the home, you hear the drip, see the stain, and feel the warm floor. When someone else lives there, or nobody does, a leak can run for weeks before anyone says a word. By then the water bill has climbed, the flooring is damaged, and the tenant is unhappy. A leak check catches it while it is still a small job.
We work with landlords, property managers, Airbnb hosts and second-home owners across Sparks. You tell us which property and how to get in, we inspect it, and you get a written report of what we found. If we find a leak, we mark the location so your plumber can go straight to it.
Why leaks in rentals run longer
Tenants report late
A tenant may not notice a slow leak, or may put off reporting it. A drip under a sink or a running toilet can go for months before it reaches you, and the water bill is already paid by then.
Vacant units leak unnoticed
Between tenants, nobody is there to hear a running toilet or see water under a sink. A leak in a vacant unit runs around the clock, and you find it at the next walk-through, or on the next bill.
Second homes sit empty
A second home can sit unoccupied for months at a time. A supply-line leak or a water heater leak in an empty house has nothing to stop it until your next visit, or until a neighbor calls.
Inspection, written report, and a record for your files
We inspect the property
We check the water meter for flow with everything off, then walk the unit: fixtures, toilets, water heater, visible lines and signs of moisture. If the meter is moving, we trace the leak with acoustic listening and thermal imaging, indoors and in the yard line.
You get a written report
The report lists what we checked, what we found, and where the leak is, with the location marked. It is written for the owner or the HOA, in plain language, so you can read it once and know what needs doing.
Documentation for your records
Keep the report with your property records. It shows what was checked and when, and you can share it with a plumber, a tenant or an insurer. If a leak is found, the marked location means the repair starts at the right spot, not with a search.
Checked between tenants, before the next one moves in
The best time for a leak check is the gap between tenants, when the unit is empty and every fixture is easy to reach. We check the whole unit in one visit, and if the meter shows flow with everything off, we trace it before the new tenant arrives.
Book a check when a unit turns over, when a tenant reports water or a high bill, or when a second home has sat empty for a season. Open 8 AM - 8 PM. Emergency service available.
Leak check questions from landlords and managers
Straight answers about inspections for rentals, vacant units and second homes in Sparks.
Do you inspect rental properties for leaks?
Yes. We inspect occupied rentals, vacant units and second homes across Sparks. We check the water meter, fixtures, water heater, visible lines and signs of moisture, then trace any leak we find with acoustic listening and thermal imaging. The visit ends with a written report you can keep on file, and we can work around a tenant's schedule or a lockbox when you arrange access.
Can you check a vacant unit or second home?
Yes. A vacant unit is where a small leak does the most damage, because nobody is there to notice it. We walk the whole unit, check the meter for flow with everything off, and inspect the fixtures, water heater and yard line. Call us before a new tenant moves in, after a long vacancy, or when the water bill on an empty unit looks wrong.
What does the written report include?
The report lists what we checked, what we found, and where the leak is if we found one, with the location marked. It is written for the owner or the HOA, so you can keep it with your property records and share it with a plumber or an insurer. It is a record of the inspection, not a repair quote.
What if my tenant reports a leak late?
Tenants often report late, after the damage is done. If a tenant reports water, a stain or a high bill, call us and we will inspect the unit and find the source. The report documents what we found and when, which helps you show the problem was handled once it was reported. If the leak is in the yard line, we trace that too.
