Will you have to cut into my walls or floors to find it?

Usually not. Our detection equipment lets us pinpoint the leak's location first, so any opening we make for the repair is small and targeted instead of guesswork.

Does homeowners insurance cover leak detection?

Many policies cover the cost of locating and repairing a leak, though coverage varies. We can provide documentation of our findings to support a claim.

How much water can a small leak actually waste?

A leak as small as a slow drip can waste over 100 gallons a month, and a running slab leak can waste thousands of gallons before it is caught, which is why catching it early matters.

Common Issues

Signs You May Have a Hidden Leak in Lexington

Rising Water Bills

A water bill that jumps for no clear reason is one of the most common signs of a hidden leak.

Running Water Sounds

Hearing water running when every fixture is off usually means water is moving somewhere it should not be.

Warm Spots on the Floor

A warm patch on a slab floor can point to a hot water line leaking underneath it.

Musty Smells or Mold

A persistent damp smell in one area of the house is often a sign of moisture from a slow leak.

Low Water Pressure

A sudden drop in pressure at one or more fixtures can mean water is escaping before it reaches them.

Foundation Cracks

A slab leak left unaddressed can shift soil under your home and contribute to foundation cracking.
