Underground Tank Leaks Can Be Silent But Dangerous!
Unlike overhead tanks, underground sumps are hidden and difficult to inspect — which means leaks often go unnoticed for weeks or months. If not caught early, a leaking sump can damage your home’s structure, pollute your water, and raise your water bills.
At Universal Groups, we specialize in detecting and sealing underground sump leaks across Bengaluru. Here’s how to spot the warning signs before it’s too late.
5 Signs Your Underground Tank May Be Leaking
If your water level drops faster than usual (and there’s no extra usage), there’s likely a crack or hole in your sump wall or base.
Check your garden, parking area, or basement. Persistent wet spots or mushy soil near the sump could be a red flag.
Leaks often allow groundwater or sewage to mix with your clean water, leading to an unpleasant odor or discoloration in your taps.
If your pump runs longer or more frequently, it might be working harder to maintain water levels due to a leak.
Seepage from a leaking sump can rise through walls, causing paint to peel, walls to bubble, or concrete to weaken.
How Universal Groups Detects Sump Leaks:
✅ Visual inspection using torches and fiber-optic tools
✅ Water level monitoring over 24 hours
✅ Crack detection using dye test or infrared tools
