Private Water Main Leak Detection for Kitsap County Properties

How it works on a Kitsap County site

Private water main leak detection near the county's commercial corridors typically produces three things: traced map of the private mains, written report with meter test results, and repair or replacement proposal. To get them we pinpoint and mark at mobile home and RV parks, correlate through outwash in the valleys, and confirm and quantify before the site is handed back.

When pressure complaints from the buildings farthest from the at condo and HOA complexes, the job is the same shape every time: pinpoint and mark, correlate, confirm and quantify. What changes in Kitsap County is the ground, outwash in the valleys, and the access across the county's commercial corridors. What doesn't change is that nothing gets dug until it's located.

What's under Kitsap County's larger sites

Across the county the private water systems behind master meters are mostly 1970s-to-1990s installs reaching end of life together, on a patchwork of city, district, PUD and tribal utilities whose responsibility ends at the meter. Around Highway 3 the private water main leak detection work we do most often is on mobile home and RV parks, and clay on the bluffs decides how the excavation goes.

Across the county the method is the same and the ground changes everything: till and clay on the uplands and bluffs surface water far from the break, outwash in the valleys hides it, and peat in the creek bottoms holds it.

We've done private water main leak detection on retail centers and office buildings near Highway 16 where the only sign was due diligence before a property purchase or a, and on mobile home and RV parks by Highway 3 where a master-meter bill that has climbed with no had gone on for a season. Clay on the bluffs hid both until we correlate.

One crew, start to finish

Managers of apartment communities in Kitsap County use us for private water main leak detection because one crew does the locate, the excavation in peat in the creek bottoms, the repair and the restoration, and because we answer at night. Anywhere on the peninsula, every day, so an emergency near Highway 305 doesn't wait for a crew from across the Sound.
