What it actually is
Leak detection is the process of finding the exact location of a hidden leak without tearing open walls or digging up floors. Using pressure testing, electronic line tracing, and camera inspection, we pinpoint the source so the repair stays small and your drywall mostly stays up. You see the findings before we quote the fix.
The Real Deal process.
Pressure test the system to confirm a leak exists and isolate which line.
Electronic line tracing to follow the pipe path behind walls and under slabs.
Camera inspection to visually confirm the exact point of failure.
You see the findings on screen before any quote or repair begins.

Leak Detection questions.
Something not answered here? Call (619) 862-3927 and ask for Tony.
Can you find a leak behind a wall?
Yes. Electronic line tracing and pressure testing let us locate leaks behind walls and under slabs without cutting blindly.
Do I have to commit to a repair?
No. You see the findings and the quote first. If you do not want the repair, you pay for the detection only.
Is there water damage if you find it early?
Early detection keeps the opening small and the repair minimal, which limits damage to drywall and flooring.
