Leak Detection Built for Arvada’s Mix of Properties

Most Arvada homes and businesses receive water and sewer service from the City of Arvada, but some addresses inside the city are served by separate water or sanitation providers. Before reporting a suspected public-system problem, check the provider shown on the utility bill or use the City’s official water and sewer district information.

For City-served properties, Arvada describes its responsibility as the service line from the public main to the meter pit; the property owner is responsible from the meter pit to the building. Rules can differ in other districts. Water running in the street, a suspected main break, a frozen meter, or low pressure should first be reported to Arvada Utilities at 720-898-7070 or through Ask Arvada.

Every investigation is tailored to the property. We review meter behavior, shutoffs, pressure, pipe material, layout, symptoms and access before selecting the testing method.

Local water-system context

Know Who Owns the Line—and What Comes After Repair

Before scheduling: Review the meter, available shutoffs, irrigation controls and any utility notice or consumption history.

Responsibility varies: Confirm the serving utility and the responsible line segment before authorizing repair.

After testing: We explain which system was evaluated, where the evidence points and what the repair contractor needs next.

Evidence before excavation

How We Approach a Arvada Leak Investigation

Different symptoms require different tests. We narrow the system first, then apply the technology that can produce useful evidence under the actual conditions.

1. Define the Problem

Confirm the active symptom, review water use and separate plumbing, irrigation, sewer, exterior water and groundwater possibilities.

2. Isolate the System

Use shutoffs, valves, pressure behavior, plans and accessible connection points to reduce the area that needs testing.

3. Select the Method

Choose acoustic, correlation, tracer gas, thermal, moisture, EM, GPR, smoke or camera methods according to the system.

4. Mark the Evidence

Identify the strongest supported probable area or pathway and explain important limitations before repair begins.

5. Explain the Next Step

Communicate findings in practical terms and provide documentation when the owner, manager, contractor or insurer needs it.

6. Keep Repair Independent

Our diagnostic role is separate from selling the repair scope, helping the owner choose the appropriate qualified contractor.

Questions Arvada customers ask

Arvada Leak Detection FAQ

Clear answers help homeowners, property managers and facility teams choose the right next step.

Check the provider shown on the utility bill. The City of Arvada also publishes information and maps for special water and sewer districts serving addresses within city boundaries. Provider boundaries do not always follow the mailing-city name.
For City of Arvada customers, the City states that it owns the service line from the public main to the meter pit, while the property owner is responsible from the meter pit to the building. If another district serves the address, confirm its rules directly because the ownership boundary may differ.
Call the utility first for a suspected public main break, water running in the street, a frozen meter, low pressure, or another issue involving the utility-owned system. Private leak detection is appropriate when evidence points to customer-owned piping, irrigation, concealed plumbing, or a shared private system and the exact source remains unclear.
Often, yes. Meter behavior, shutoff testing, irrigation-zone isolation, pressure behavior, and the property layout can help determine which system is using water before more focused testing begins. The available isolation points and condition of the system affect what can be confirmed.
