Leak detection and water leak repair across Brooklyn
In Brooklyn the leak call is usually "it is coming through the ceiling," and the building is a brownstone cut into apartments or a pre-war walk-up where the plumbing has been patched by six generations of plumbers. We isolate whether the water is from a supply line, a drain, a tub seal or a toilet flange upstairs before anyone opens a wall, because in Park Slope, Bed-Stuy, Crown Heights and Bushwick the dispute over who pays is settled by exactly that finding, and we put it in writing with photos. Galvanized supply lines with pinholes are the other Brooklyn classic, and we find them with pressure testing.
Our shop is at 854 Humboldt Street in Greenpoint, so Brooklyn is home turf: most of the borough is under 30 minutes from the truck.

Questions from Brooklyn
Who finds water leaks near me in Brooklyn?
GW Mechanical Corp finds hidden leaks in Brooklyn homes and apartments without tearing out walls, then repairs them in the same visit. Call 646-980-2411.
How do I know if I have a hidden water leak?
Check the water meter with everything off. If it moves, water is leaving somewhere. Stains, musty smells and a higher bill are the other signs.
Can you find a leak in Brooklyn without opening walls?
Usually we narrow it to a small area first with isolation, pressure testing, dye tests, moisture meters, thermal imaging and acoustic equipment, then make one access opening in the right place.
My neighbor in Brooklyn says I am leaking into their apartment. What now?
Call us. We test every fixture, supply line and drain in your unit and determine whether the leak is from your apartment, a riser or the building, with a written report and photos either way.
Do you do leak detection in Brooklyn the same day?
Yes. An active leak causing damage is treated as an emergency, 24/7.
