Public Adjusters Guide
Expert Leak Detection
Hello, I’m Philip from Pegasus Leak Detection. We know that as a public adjuster, you are dedicated to representing policyholders and ensuring they receive fair settlements. Accurate leak detection plays a critical role in substantiating claims, determining repair needs, and reducing disputes. Our non-invasive methods help confirm the extent of water damage, saving time and providing the professional documentation required to support claims.
How We Help Public Adjusters
We specialize in helping public adjusters accurately document leaks and prevent unnecessary repair costs. Here’s how Pegasus Leak Detection supports your work:
- Precise Leak Identification: We pinpoint the leak’s origin to avoid false claims or repairs for non-related areas.
- Comprehensive Reports: We provide detailed findings with photos and precise measurements, helping you build strong evidence for claims.
- Minimize Property Disruption: With non-invasive techniques, we reduce damage to property, ensuring more efficient repairs and lower costs for your clients.
How to Prepare for Leak Detection Services
Proper preparation ensures a smooth inspection process and accurate reporting. For public adjusters working with multi-unit or large properties, coordination is key:
- System Control: We will need complete control of the utility system. For water-related leaks, we’ll need to turn water on and off throughout the inspection. Ensure that all water usage is completed beforehand.
- Access to Multiple Units: Water damage in one unit may originate from another, so we require access to all potentially affected units. We may also need to test fixtures in adjacent areas to verify the source and scope of the leak.
- Staff or Property Manager Assistance: Having on-site staff or maintenance personnel available ensures smooth access to mechanical rooms and other restricted areas. This helps us work efficiently, minimizing labor time and costs.

Challenges in Leak Detection for Public Adjusters
Water damage claims can involve complex leak scenarios that require comprehensive investigation:
- Multi-Unit Properties: A leak may impact multiple units, making it necessary to inspect several areas to determine the source accurately.
- Delayed Reporting: Leaks may go unnoticed until significant damage occurs, complicating the process of determining the original cause.
- Utility Control Issues: In some cases, tenants or other parties may unknowingly interfere with inspections by using water during detection, limiting our ability to pinpoint leaks precisely.
