March 2026
A resident of a Carrboro apartment in the 27510 area was adamant that something was wrong with their HVAC unit, even though property management believed the unit was working fine and requested a diagnostic to check it.
Dexter found a leak in the sealed system. The team recorded the unit's model and serial information and discussed the finding with the customer, who said they would replace the unit. Pricing for the replacement was then requested so the customer could move forward.

Common signs include an unexplained increase in your water bill, the sound of running water when all fixtures are off, warm spots on the floor (slab leak), musty odors, or discoloration on walls and ceilings. If you suspect a leak, we can confirm it quickly with a pressure test.
Even a pinhole leak can release 5 to 10 gallons of water per day. Over weeks or months, that leads to mold growth, structural wood rot, damaged insulation, and ruined drywall. Early detection saves thousands in repair costs compared to waiting until damage is visible.
We handle the complete process: detection, repair, and pressure verification. For slab leaks, we offer direct repair through the concrete, tunnel-under access, and full reroute options. We discuss the pros and cons of each approach for your specific situation.
Most policies cover sudden and accidental water damage but not gradual leaks or maintenance issues. We provide detailed documentation including photos, pressure readings, and repair descriptions that help support your insurance claim. We recommend filing promptly after discovery.
