ABOUT THIS SERVICE

WATER LEAK DETECTION & REPAIR
FROM UTAH'S LOCAL EXPERTS

When your water meter spins but all faucets are off, you're losing water somewhere — a slow drip behind drywall, a failing supply line under a slab, or a pinhole leak in copper piping that's been running for weeks before you notice ceiling stains, warped floors, or a utility bill that makes no sense. Our Utah state licensed plumbers use acoustic listening equipment, moisture meters, thermal imaging cameras, and pressure testing to pinpoint the exact leak location — no guessing, no unnecessary wall removal, no exploratory surgery.

Once located, we quote the repair upfront. Most residential leaks involve supply line replacement, pipe section repair, or slab leak rerouting. We handle everything from simple under-sink line swaps to complex under-slab tunneling and repiping. If the leak has already caused water damage, we document it for insurance claims and coordinate with restoration crews.

We serve all of Salt Lake County, Utah County, Davis County, Summit County, Wasatch County, and Tooele County. Same-day leak detection available on most calls. Emergency dispatch runs 24/7 including holidays — because hidden leaks don't wait for business hours.
WHAT'S INCLUDED

COMPLETE WATER LEAK DETECTION & REPAIR
COVERAGE IN UTAH

From acoustic leak detection to complete repiping after a slab leak, we handle every phase of residential water leak diagnosis and repair. Same-day service available across the Wasatch Front.
🔧
SLAB LEAK REPAIR
Leak under your foundation slab means tunneling beneath the home or rerouting the line through walls and attic space. The right approach depends on location, age of the home, and how many other pipes are at risk. We assess both options and quote upfront so you can make an informed call without pressure.

⚠️
EMERGENCY LEAK SHUTOFF & REPAIR
Active flooding from a burst pipe or failed connection demands immediate shutoff and temporary containment. Available 24/7 with 120-minute response across Salt Lake and Utah counties. We stop the water flow, assess the damage, and repair or replace the failed section same-visit when parts allow.

🛠️
SUPPLY LINE REPLACEMENT
Once the leak is located, most repairs involve replacing a section of copper, PEX, or galvanized pipe. Supply line replacement ranges from simple under-sink swaps to opening walls for behind-the-drywall runs. We carry common sizes on the truck for same-day completion on straightforward jobs.

📋
LEAK INSPECTION & PREVENTIVE PRESSURE TESTING
Pressure testing the plumbing system before drywall goes up — or after you close on an older home — catches weak joints, pinhole corrosion, and failing fittings before they become expensive emergencies. Results documented for insurance, warranty claims, or peace of mind. Especially valuable in homes with galvanized or polybutylene piping.

HOW IT WORKS

OUR WATER LEAK DETECTION & REPAIR
PROCESS

STEP 01
CALL OR BOOK
Call (801) 997-1617 or book online. Real people answer 24/7. Describe the symptoms — high water bill, ceiling stain, wet floor, or the sound of running water when nothing is on. Same-day dispatch available in most cases.
STEP 02
LOCATE THE LEAK
A licensed plumber arrives with acoustic listening gear, thermal imaging camera, and moisture meters. Pressure testing isolates the section. The leak gets pinpointed before any wall or floor is opened.
STEP 03
UPFRONT QUOTE
Once located, the repair gets quoted flat-rate. Slab leak? Both tunnel and reroute options presented with real numbers. Supply line? Priced by the section. No surprises. No pressure. Decline the repair and you only pay the detection fee.
STEP 04
REPAIRED & TESTED
The failed pipe section gets replaced or rerouted. System gets pressurized and tested before drywall or flooring goes back. Everything confirmed watertight before the plumber leaves. Photos provided for insurance documentation if needed.
DO YOU NEED LEAK DETECTION SERVICE?

SIGNS YOU HAVE
A HIDDEN WATER LEAK

💧
Water Bill Doubled With No Explanation
Meter spinning when all faucets are off means water is escaping somewhere. A toilet flapper runs $5 to fix. A slab leak under the foundation can flood the crawlspace and cost thousands in structural damage if ignored. Acoustic detection finds it fast.
Don't ignore this
💦
Ceiling Stains, Warped Floors, or Damp Drywall
Water stains that spread, floors that buckle near walls, or drywall that feels soft to the touch all signal active moisture intrusion. The source might be a slow drip from an upstairs bathroom, a pinhole leak in a wall cavity, or a failing water heater connection. Thermal imaging locates it without tearing out entire sections of wall.
Don't ignore this
🔊
Sound of Running Water When Nothing Is On
Hear water running inside walls or under floors when every fixture is shut off? That's pressurized supply line failure. Left alone, it saturates insulation, rots framing, and creates mold. Acoustic listening devices pick up the frequency signature and map the exact location within feet.

COMMON QUESTIONS

WATER LEAK DETECTION & REPAIR
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Acoustic listening devices detect the sound frequency of pressurized water escaping a pipe — even through concrete, drywall, or insulation. Thermal imaging picks up temperature changes caused by water flow. Moisture meters confirm saturation levels. Combined with pressure isolation testing, we pinpoint the leak location within a few feet before opening any wall or floor.

Leak detection service is priced after assessment based on the complexity of the search and the tools required. Simple acoustic listening for a slab leak might take an hour. A multi-story home with suspected leaks in several zones takes longer and may involve thermal imaging, moisture mapping, and pressure testing across multiple circuits. Once we locate the leak, the repair itself is quoted flat-rate before work begins.

A slab leak is a supply or drain line failure that occurs under your home’s concrete foundation slab. Repairing it requires either tunneling beneath the slab to access the pipe or rerouting the line through walls and attic space to bypass the failed section entirely. Regular leaks in walls or crawlspaces are accessible without foundation work and cost far less to repair.

Yes. Spring thaw in Utah after freeze-thaw cycles can reveal pinhole leaks or cracks in copper supply lines that formed during winter. Running a pressure test before AC season also prevents surprises — the last thing you want is a leak discovered mid-summer when your water bill spikes and you’re dealing with heat at the same time. Pre-season leak detection gives you time to repair before demand peaks and gives your plumbing system a clean baseline before heavy use.

Most Utah homeowners policies cover sudden pipe failures — burst pipes, split fittings, or supply line ruptures. Gradual leaks discovered late, or leaks caused by lack of maintenance, are often denied. We document the leak location, cause, and resulting damage with photos for your insurance claim. The detection fee and repair quote are separate from what your insurer may reimburse.

Yes — every plumber on our team holds a current Utah state license issued by the Division of Occupational and Professional Licensing. We’re fully insured for liability and workers’ compensation. License and insurance verification available on request.

Yes. Leak detection and emergency shutoff services are available 24/7 including weekends and holidays. Active flooding or a water bill that spiked overnight both qualify for same-day or after-hours dispatch. Call (801) 997-1617 anytime — real people answer, not a recording.

Leak detection service is available across all of Salt Lake County, Utah County, Davis County, Summit County including Park City, Wasatch County, and Tooele County. Same-day leak detection runs across the Wasatch Front from Layton to Provo. Emergency dispatch operates 24/7 to all service areas.

Most residential leak detection jobs take 1–3 hours depending on home size, number of plumbing zones, and leak location. A simple under-slab supply line leak isolated with acoustic listening might take an hour. A slow drip somewhere in a multi-story home with no obvious moisture stains takes longer and involves thermal scanning multiple walls and ceilings.

Once located, we explain what failed, why it failed, and what the repair involves. You get a flat-rate quote before we start any repair work. Decline the repair and you only pay the detection fee. Approve the quote and we complete the repair same-visit on most jobs — supply line swaps, pipe section replacement, or emergency shutoff and containment until a full repair can be scheduled.
