Leak Detection Services in Ridgecrest, CA

Leak detection is exactly what it sounds like: finding water that's escaping where you can't see it. That could be inside a wall, under the floor, beneath your concrete slab or somewhere along the main water line in your yard. Finding the exact spot means less demolition, less mess and a smaller repair bill.

Signs You Might Have a Hidden Leak

Hidden leaks usually leave clues. If any of these sound familiar, it's worth having a local plumber take a look:

• A water bill that's suddenly higher than usual

• Damp spots or stains on walls, ceilings or floors

• Mold, mildew or a musty smell

• A water meter that keeps moving with everything turned off

• Low water pressure

• Warm spots on the floor, a classic sign of a hot water slab leak

Try this quick test. Turn off every faucet and appliance, then check your water meter. If it's still moving, water is going somewhere it shouldn't, so let us know and we'll track it down.

How Much Water Can a Hidden Leak Waste?

According to the U.S. EPA WaterSense program, household leaks can waste nearly 10,000 gallons of water a year, and about 1 in 10 homes has leaks wasting 90 gallons or more every day. Our smart leak detection and automatic shutoff systems can help you catch the next one even sooner.

How Do Plumbers Find Hidden Leaks?

We never guess or start cutting holes. We use proven, nondestructive tools, the same approach we rely on for emergency leak repairs all over town:

• Acoustic leak detection: Sensitive listening equipment hears pressurized water escaping

• Thermal imaging: Infrared cameras spot moisture and temperature changes

• Pressure testing: Shows which line is losing pressure

• Camera inspection: A sewer camera finds cracked drain and sewer pipes

Our Ridgecrest Leak Detection Services

Pipe Leak Detection

We find hidden leaks in walls, floors, ceilings and crawl spaces. That includes mobile homes, like this pipe leak we fixed under a mobile home.

Slab Leak Detection and Repair

Leaks under a concrete foundation are tricky, but they're very fixable. We locate the leak, then repair the spot or reroute the line, whichever makes more sense for your home. For drain leaks, a sewer camera inspection shows us exactly where to look.

Plumbing System Inspections

We check your supply lines, valves, fixtures and water heater so nothing gets missed.

Preventive Maintenance and Smart Shutoff Systems

Regular checkups catch problems early. We also install smart devices like the Moen smart water shutoff, which can stop a leak automatically before it floods your home.
