Do I really have a leak?

Before calling an expert, consider taking on the task yourself following our DIY leak detection advice: 

  • Lift the toilet tank cover and listen for a running water noise. It should sound like the toilet tank is constantly filling.
  • Place food colouring in your toilet tank, let it stand and see if the dye eventually ends up in the toilet bowl. (Do not flush while you do
    this inspection).
  • Take a peek at your water meter! It's usually located near the sidewalk in front of your home. Check to see if the little red triangle is spinning when no water is being used in the house.
  • Check your water unit regularly for any signs of leakage! 

Is your water meter suddenly out of control? It could be the sign that you have an underground leak. Don't wait - call Doctor Plumbing & Gas and get it fixed fast!
