Professional Leak Detection From the Plumbing Experts
Our professionals specialize in residential and commercial leak detection services that can save you time and money and help you avoid stress. We use our extensive experience combined with state-of-the-art technology and professional leak detection tools to identify and diagnose interior and exterior water leaks, even if they are underground, under concrete slabs, behind walls, or underneath flooring. We work efficiently to minimize your stress and inconvenience, and we offer fast, effective leak detection solutions and non-invasive, non-destructive leak repair methods:
- Slab Leaks – Slab leaks are leaks that are underneath concrete slabs. It is almost impossible for home and business owners to see signs of a slab leak with their own eyes; however, an increasing water bill can be a sign of a hidden leak underneath a slab. We can locate slab leaks by mapping the location of underground water lines and using a thermal imaging camera to find the location of the leak. We can then use non-invasive, non-destructive methods to find the exact location of the leak and repair it.
- Main Water Line Leaks – Main water line leaks are usually outside of your home. You may experience flooding in your yard or on the street outside your home, but minor leaks can take more time to detect. We provide leak detection and leak repair services in the area between your water meter and your home.
We use subsonic leak detection technology to find the location of the leak and determine the fastest and most effective repair solution.
- Water Surveys – Water surveys are an investigative measure we offer if you have an unexpectedly high water bill. If your water bill suddenly or steadily increases with no increase in usage, you may have a hidden water leak. We will perform a comprehensive interior and exterior water leak survey to determine if you have a leak in your main water line, irrigation system, or plumbing appliances. We will then provide a report of our findings and recommendation of the most efficient and effective water leak repair method.
