There is no easy answer to this question, and any vendor who hands you a single clean percentage is skipping over three real problems. But it is possible to get real measurements.
The first problem is counterfactual. You cannot know with certainty which repaired leak would have become a claim, or when. A hairline crack may surface next month or in three years. The intervention resolves a situation without producing a dated invoice proving what it prevented.
Second, selection. If you deploy to your worst risks, you will conflate the effect of the product with the effect of who received it. A simple before-and-after comparison cannot separate the two.
Third, timing. The benefit is cumulative, and frequency can temporarily rise in the first months as pre-existing problems are surfaced rather than caused. Programs measured too early systematically understate their own results.
None of this makes measurement impossible. It makes it something you design before the pilot starts rather than reconstruct afterwards: a defined control group, a fixed measurement window, and a flag in your policy system marking which homes have the solution.
That last point is the one most often missed. Without it, you cannot connect a claim to whether the home was protected, and the loop never closes - however good the technology is.
