Leak Detection & Prevention
Why Leak Detection Is More Than Just Prevention
Small water leaks inside appliances rarely stay small. A slow drip from a cracked hose, faulty valve, or failing gasket can escalate into serious structural damage. Floor warping, swelling cabinetry, and hidden mold are common outcomes — along with shock risk if water reaches internal electrical components. Higher water bills, cycling issues, and premature part failure are also symptoms of undetected leaks. Most problems go unnoticed until water shows up on the floor — our goal is to find them before that happens.
Where We Inspect for Appliance Leaks
We inspect both internal and external water paths across all major appliance types. For washing machines, we check the inlet valve, drain pump, and tub seal. On dishwashers, we assess door gaskets, fill hoses, sump housings, and connection clamps. For refrigerators, we check the water inlet valve, ice maker tubing, and dispenser seals. We also examine faucet shutoffs, under-appliance pans, and base cabinets for signs of corrosion or water pooling. If needed, we evaluate nearby flooring and walls for signs of intrusion — especially in stacked or built-in setups.

Great people to deal with. Called and set up appointment right away. Mark came and fixed the issue right away. Very friendly and respectful. Will use again. Thanks guys.
Excellent experience with Vlad! He came day of to help fix a laundry machine issue. He was on time, a clear communicator about the issue and fixed it with ease. He came back the following day (at no charge!) when I reached out with further information about how the machine was working to confirm everything was working properly/as intended. Excellent service and will absolutely be working with them again when we have future needs. Can’t recommend enough!
Vlad has been an incredible asset. In the few months we've known him, he's already fixed a dryer, two washing machines, and an oven! He's always very upfront with the repairs needed and the associated costs with fixing an appliance. I wouldn't hesitate at all to hire him for any future appliances in need of repair
I split my time between Italy and NYC and manage several Airbnb units. Scheduling used to take too much energy around guest check-ins and turnovers. With Volt & Vector Appliance Repair, the routine became predictable: clear 2-hour windows (9–11am or 12–2pm), a text with ETA, written pricing (diagnostic credited), before/after photos, and a short summary after each visit. Over ~30 repairs in two years: washers, dryers, dishwashers, ranges, a refrigerator seal. They’ve kept me informed and moved quickly on parts (usually 24–48 hours when ordered). Access and lockboxes are handled without drama, work areas are left clean, and my reviews stayed steady. Hosting from abroad is easier when maintenance is this consistent. Strong recommend for Brooklyn and Manhattan hosts.

Amazing service every time! I work for a multi-use property in lower Manhattan and we have used Volt & Vector for at least 20+ jobs and I can honestly say they do incredible and reliable work. Vlad is a pleasure to work with, he is honest and his pricing is fair. Highly recommend!
About Volt & Vector
OEM Parts
We use factory-original OEM components only, tracked by model, serial, and invoice ID for full traceability. We never install rebuilt or aftermarket electronics. All refrigeration work is performed by EPA 608–certified technicians, and our NYC-based inventory and supplier network ensures fast turnaround.
Warranty & Compliance
Every repair is covered by a 180-day warranty on parts and labor. We keep secure, cloud-based service records for seamless follow-ups. COI and technician ID are available for building management. All work is performed in accordance with NYC Electrical & Plumbing Codes (§27-740 et seq).
Safety Protocol
If you see water leaking, shut off the supply immediately. If you notice smoke, odor, or sparks, switch the breaker OFF and unplug the appliance if it’s safe to do so. Our technicians arrive with insulated tools, proper PPE, and CAT III 1000 V testers for safe, accurate diagnostics.
Coverage
We cover Brooklyn—Downtown, Brooklyn Heights, Park Slope, Williamsburg, Greenpoint, Bed-Stuy, Carroll Gardens, Prospect Heights, and Flatbush—and Manhattan (below 96th Street)—FiDi, Battery Park, Tribeca, SoHo, Chelsea, Midtown, UES, UWS, Gramercy, and the Village. You’ll receive a text alert ~30 minutes before arrival.
