Leak Detection & Repair
Find the leak before it finds your drywall. We locate water leaks with acoustic and thermal equipment, so there is no guessing, no unnecessary demo, and a flat-rate quote before we start.
Locate the leak. Fix it once.
Water leaks rarely show up where they actually are. By the time a stain appears on a ceiling or a baseboard starts to swell, the actual leak might be ten feet away, or three rooms away.
We use acoustic listening equipment and thermal imaging to pinpoint the source before we touch anything. You will see exactly where the leak is, and have a written quote in hand, before any wall, floor, or slab is opened.
When to call us.
Most water damage happens between the day you first notice something is off and the day you decide to do something about it. If any of these sound familiar, call.
A bill that jumps with no change in usage almost always means water is going somewhere it should not.
Water you can hear running when nothing is on, behind a wall, under a floor, or near the main.
Discoloration on drywall, ceilings, or floors. Often warm to the touch over a hot-water line leak.
Persistent dampness in a specific area, even after cleaning. A slow leak is usually behind it.
Pressure that drops suddenly or in one fixture only, often a supply-line leak between the meter and the house.
A warm patch on a slab or tile floor is the classic sign of a slab leak. Call the same day.
Locate first. Then fix.
No exploratory demo and no guessing. We find the leak before any wall comes down.
We walk the house with you, listen to what you are seeing, and check the meter, manifolds, and obvious access points first.
Acoustic listening devices, thermal imaging, and pressure testing. No demo unless we are sure. We show you exactly where the leak is before any wall comes down.

Drywall, tile, or flooring restoration. We cut access cleanly and refer you to a trusted local restoration contractor when the repair is done.
You will know the price before we start.
We quote leak detection at a flat rate before any work begins, based on how much of the home we need to assess. You approve the price first, then we start. If the job turns out simpler than expected the price does not go up, and it does not go up mid-job either. See how our pricing works.
Booked visits start with a flat $79 service call, credited toward the repair when you approve it. After-hours and emergency dispatch is quoted on the call.
Pricing varies with home size and access. The number we quote is the number you pay.
What homeowners ask.
How much does leak detection cost?
We quote a flat rate before we start, based on how much of the house we need to assess. You know the number before any work begins, and it does not change mid-job. Call and we will walk you through it.
Will you have to tear up my walls or floor?
Almost never as a starting point. We use acoustic listening and thermal imaging to pinpoint the source first. If access is required, we cut the smallest opening possible, and only after you have approved the quote.
Can you find slab leaks?
Yes. Slab leaks are one of the most common things we are called for. We locate them with thermal and acoustic equipment without breaking concrete. Once located, we will discuss repair and reroute options with you.
Is leak detection covered by homeowner's insurance?
Often yes. The detection itself and the resulting water damage are commonly covered, even when the underlying pipe replacement is not. We document everything in writing with photos to make your claim straightforward.
Call us. A person picks up, not a call center — and you will get a straight answer.
What else we do.
Burst pipe? Major leak? Call now. We answer.
