Leak Detection & Repair
Pinpoint leaks in water, gas and sewer lines without tearing up your home.
Mystery water bill spike? Damp spot on a wall? Hissing meter when nothing's running? We use electronic leak detection, pressure testing and cameras to find leaks without tearing the house apart.
Then we fix it — clean, fast, and with any applicable workmanship warranty clearly listed on your written estimate.
Common leak detection & repair problems homeowners see
Water bill jumped with no change in use
A hidden leak runs 24 hours a day. We isolate the system to find out whether it is inside, under the slab, or out at the service line.
Warm or damp spot on the floor
A classic slab leak sign on a hot-water line. We locate it acoustically before opening any concrete.
Stains on a ceiling or wall
We trace it to the actual source rather than opening drywall at the stain and hoping.
Meter moving with everything off
That confirms a pressurized leak somewhere. The next step is locating it, not guessing.
When to call a licensed plumber
- Your bill or meter says water is moving and nothing is running
- Damp, warm or discolored spots on floors, walls or ceilings
- Musty smell with no visible source
- A soft, always-green patch in the yard
- Before you cut into a slab, wall or ceiling

Frequently asked
Do you have to break the slab to find a leak?
No. Locating comes first with listening and pressure equipment, so any opening is as small as the repair requires.
Can you tell me if the leak is the city's responsibility?
We isolate at the meter to establish whether the leak is on your side of it, which tells you who owns the repair.
