3Meter dial and sweep hand, which record the water that passes through the meter.
4Service line from the meter to the house. If the triangle still moves with the house shut-off valve closed, the leak is likely underground on this line.
5House shut-off valve. Close it and check the triangle again: if it stops, the leak is elsewhere on the property.

Signs You Need Leak Detection in Paradise, NV

In a Paradise, NV condo, the clue is often on your ceiling while the source is upstairs.

Older single-storey ranch homes with mature trees and rock yards in the 89119 area of Paradise, NV — 89119: homes with their own LVVWD meter start with the meter test.

A stain that grows with use upstairs

If it spreads after the unit above runs a shower or dishwasher, a drain line or tub seal is the likely source.

A stain that grows around the clock

Growth overnight, with nobody upstairs using water, points to a pressurized supply line or fixture valve.

Drips from a light or a vent

Water follows conduit and ductwork, so a drip from a fixture has usually traveled before it showed.

A damp wall with no plumbing on your side

A wet baseboard with nothing behind it usually means the source is next door or above.

A meter moving in a single-family home

With every tap off, LVVWD says a red or white triangle still moving on the meter may mean a leak.

Hot water that never quite stops

A water heater that runs often with no one using hot water can mean a hot line leaking in a wall or slab.

Our Leak Detection Process in Paradise, NV

The full method set is covered in what happens during a visit.

Map moisture back from the stain
The stain marks where water escaped, not where it started.
Note when it runs

Confirm without opening
Moisture meters, thermal imaging and fixture-by-fixture isolation confirm the source.
Mark and explain
The owner and the manager see where the water starts before any drywall is cut.

FAQs About Leak Detection in Paradise, NV

Do you need access to the condo above to find a leak?

Usually, yes. Moisture mapping from your ceiling narrows the area, but confirming the source means checking fixtures and lines upstairs, arranged through the owner, HOA or manager.

Can a ceiling leak in a Strip-corridor high-rise start more than one floor up?

It can. Water follows pipes, conduit and floor penetrations, so a stain may sit below a different unit than the one leaking.

Who pays when water comes from the unit above?

It depends on your association's governing documents and the insurance policies involved. Locating the source comes first, because every party needs to know where the water started.

Do you cover Paradise ZIP codes 89109, 89119 and 89169?

Yes. All three are inside our Las Vegas Valley service area, along with neighboring Enterprise, Spring Valley and Henderson, NV.

Can I report a ceiling leak at night in Paradise, NV?

Yes. Calls are answered 24/7. Tell building management too, and close your unit's shut-off if the water could be yours; the upstairs check depends on access the HOA arranges.

Will you repair the pipe once the leak is found?

No. We locate leaks; the repair goes to a licensed plumber you or your HOA choose.
