Leak Detection

Water leaks hiding behind walls, under slabs, and underground cause mold, structural damage, and inflated water bills. Professional leak detection uses acoustic equipment, thermal imaging, and pressure testing to locate leaks precisely without destructive exploration.

Why Professional Leak Detection?

Non-invasive detection — find leaks without tearing up walls
Acoustic and thermal imaging equipment
Locates slab leaks, supply line leaks, and underground leaks
Prevents mold, structural damage, and water waste
Reduces destructive repair by pinpointing the exact leak location
Emergency response for active leaks

Our Leak Detection Process

1
Meter Test

We check your water meter with all fixtures off to confirm whether a leak exists and estimate its size.

2
Pressure Testing

Sections of your plumbing are isolated and pressure-tested to narrow down the location of the leak.

3
Acoustic Detection

Specialized listening equipment detects the sound of water escaping from pressurized pipes through walls, floors, and slabs.

4
Thermal Imaging

Thermal cameras detect temperature changes caused by wet areas, pinpointing leaks behind walls without cutting into them.

Leak Detection by City

Our local pros understand the unique conditions of your city — climate, home types, and seasonal challenges.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I have a hidden water leak?
Signs include unexplained high water bills, the sound of running water when fixtures are off, warm spots on floors (possible slab leak), water stains on walls or ceilings, and musty odors.
What is a slab leak?
A slab leak is a water or sewer pipe leak located beneath the concrete foundation of your home. They're caused by pipe corrosion, poor installation, or soil movement. Slab leaks are serious and require professional detection.
How accurate is professional leak detection?
Modern acoustic and thermal equipment can locate leaks to within inches. This precision dramatically reduces the amount of excavation or wall opening required to make repairs.
What does leak detection cost?
Leak detection services typically run $150–$400. This cost is usually offset by the savings in repair costs from not cutting open walls or floors in the wrong location.
