Leak Detection & Repair — Hidden Water Leaks Found & Fixed on the Gulf Coast

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How can I tell if I have a hidden water leak?

A water bill that's higher than normal without a change in usage is the clearest signal. Other signs: the sound of running water when no fixtures are on, warm spots on a concrete floor (often a hot water slab leak), damp drywall or staining that appears without a visible source, mold in unexpected places, and a water meter that continues to tick when all water is turned off inside the house.

What is a slab leak and how serious is it?

A slab leak is a break in a water line that runs through or beneath your concrete foundation. It can cause significant structural damage over time as water softens the soil under the slab and erodes the concrete. Hot water slab leaks also spike your water heating costs. It's a serious issue — don't wait if you suspect one.

How do you find a leak without tearing up everything?

We start with pressure testing to confirm and isolate the leak to a section of the system. For supply leaks, listening equipment and pressure isolation can narrow the location significantly before any opening is made. We minimize damage — we're not pulling out drywall or jackhammering unless we know exactly where to look.

Will you repair the leak once you find it?

Yes. Leak detection and repair is one service. We locate it and fix it in the same visit whenever possible.

My water meter still moves when everything in the house is off. What does that mean?

That's a clear sign of a leak somewhere in your system — either inside the house or between the meter and the house. It's worth addressing promptly both to prevent water damage and to stop paying for water that's going into the ground or into your walls.
