Leak Detection & Repair

Our Leak Detection Services

Visual Inspections

We start with a thorough visual inspection of your plumbing system, checking for any visible signs of leaks, water stains, or corrosion. This helps us identify any potential issues and determine the scope of the problem.

Acoustic Leak Detection

We use advanced acoustic equipment to listen for the sound of leaks in your pipes. This method allows us to locate leaks in hidden areas like walls or underground pipes without the need for invasive digging or destruction.

Thermal Imaging

Thermal imaging cameras help us detect temperature differences in walls and floors, allowing us to locate areas where water may be leaking. This non-invasive technique is highly effective for identifying hidden leaks without causing damage to your property.

Pressure Testing

By using pressure testing, we can identify leaks in your plumbing system that may not be visible. This test involves pressurizing your pipes and monitoring the pressure to find areas where the pressure is dropping, indicating a leak.

Our Leak Repair Services

Once we’ve detected the source of the leak, our team will get to work quickly to repair it. We offer a variety of repair solutions based on the type and severity of the leak:

  1. Pipe Repair
    If the leak is in a pipe, our team will either repair the damaged pipe or replace it entirely if necessary. We work with all types of pipes, including copper, PVC, and galvanized steel, ensuring that the repair is done correctly and the system is restored to full functionality.

  2. Slab Leak Repair
    Slab leaks occur when pipes beneath your home’s foundation start leaking. These types of leaks can be particularly tricky to detect and repair. Using advanced detection methods, we’ll pinpoint the location of the slab leak and repair it with minimal disruption to your property.

  3. Wall Leak Repair
    Leaks within the walls of your home can cause significant damage if left unchecked. Once we’ve located the leak, we’ll access the damaged area, repair the leak, and restore your wall, all while minimizing the impact on your home’s aesthetics.
