Confirming the leak

We shut off every fixture and watch the meter, then separate hot from cold to narrow it down.

That tells us which line is leaking.

Confirming the leak.

Pinpointing

Acoustic and thermal tools mark the spot before any concrete is opened.

Repair or reroute

A single failure gets a spot repair. A line with several gets rerouted through the attic or walls.

New PEX or copper runsOld galvanized or failing lines are replaced, in part or throughout.
Repair or reroute.

We explain the choice first.

What to do while you wait

Note the meter reading, then check again an hour later with nothing running. Write both down; it helps us gauge the size of the leak.

If water is surfacing through the floor, close the main shutoff and text us a photo of the area.

Quick answers

Can a slab leak raise my bill?

Yes, sometimes sharply.

Is rerouting better than a spot repair?

It depends on how many failures the line has.
