Leak Detection
Finding the source of a plumbing leak
Look at the pattern, not one symptom
Tell us where moisture appears and when. A dripping faucet, intermittent toilet refill or damp water-heater area gives a different starting point from warm flooring or water sounds with fixtures idle. Safely taken photos and a timeline help focus the visit.
Compare unusual consumption with irrigation, pool use, guests and appliances. Meter observations during a no-use period can help, but cannot locate a leak. A small drip may not register clearly. We consider the clues together rather than treating one reading as a diagnosis.
Review accessible plumbing before choosing work
Your plumber reviews accessible toilets, faucets, showerheads, shutoff valves, exposed piping, water-heater connections, appliance connections and outdoor spigots. Share relevant freezing, remodeling, landscaping, appliance installation or plumbing repairs that preceded the change.
We explain whether findings support repair or further investigation. Suspected concealed or under-slab leakage needs assessment, not an immediate commitment to opening a floor. The next step may instead involve the water utility, an irrigation professional, restoration work or another trade, depending on the apparent source.

Need help with leak detection?
Book Online or call to describe the problem and arrange a visit with a licensed master plumber.
Diagnostic Service Call: $49 weekdays 8am–5pm; $89 after hours and Saturday; $237 Sunday. Visits are appointment-based. Repair work is priced separately for your approval.
Make the repair plan fit the property
Before authorizing repair, discuss the affected pipe or connection, access and water interruptions. Ask what plumbing work is included and whether damaged finishes or remaining moisture need separate attention. Repairing the source and recovering water-damaged materials are different parts of the job.
For businesses and managed properties, identify who authorizes work, arranges entry and coordinates occupants. Share workable appointment windows, areas that must remain accessible and recurring operational disruption so the investigation fits the people using the building.

Clear answers
Leak Detection questions
Need help with a specific situation? Call or text and describe what is happening.
(469) 734-0431Does a high water bill prove there is a leak?
No. Irrigation, pool use, appliances and changed occupancy can increase consumption. Share recent bills and usage changes so we can assess the concern in context.
Can meter movement pinpoint the problem?
No. Movement during a no-use period may show water passing through the meter, but not its location or cause. Small drips may not be detectable.
Does a warm or damp floor mean a slab leak?
Not by itself. Accessible leaks and other moisture sources can produce similar concerns. We review symptoms before recommending further investigation or slab-leak repair planning.
What should I do while water is actively leaking?
Avoid electrical hazards. Use a known customer-side shutoff only if safe, then call with the leak's location and severity. Immediate hazards need emergency assistance.
Can a toilet or appliance connection be the source?
Yes. Report recurring toilet refills, dripping fixtures and wet appliance connections. We consider accessible connections alongside concealed-leak concerns rather than assuming an under-floor pipe is responsible.
Can you help with moisture near the water heater?
Describe the moisture and any performance changes. Same-day water-heater repair or replacement may be available when the specific situation allows; options can be checked after diagnosis.
