About this service
Understanding High Water Bill Diagnostics in Lacey
High water bill diagnostics is a step-by-step process of finding out why usage has gone up. It starts at the water meter and works outward through fixtures, appliances, irrigation and buried lines until the cause is found.
Many bill spikes come from something small that runs constantly, like a toilet flapper that does not seal. Others come from a hidden line break that no one can see. Because the cause could be almost anywhere, a methodical approach saves time and avoids replacing parts that were never the problem.

What's included
What Our High Water Bill Diagnostics Include
We begin with the simplest checks and move to advanced detection only when the evidence calls for it.
Fixture and Appliance Review
Toilets, faucets, water heaters and other equipment are checked for constant or intermittent leaks.
Outdoor and Irrigation Check
We look at hose bibs, irrigation and exterior lines that often lose water unnoticed.
Hidden Line Detection
If the simple checks do not explain the usage, we use detection equipment to look for a line leak.

Common causes include leaking toilets, hidden line breaks, irrigation faults and changes in household usage.
We check the water meter with everything turned off. If it still moves, water is being lost somewhere.
It is one of the most common causes, and we test toilets early in the process.
Leaks under a slab, in a wall or underground often show no visible water, which is why detection tools matter.
You can ask your utility about your usage history. If it points to a leak, we can help find where.
