Professional Leak Detection in Norwalk & La Mirada

Hidden water leaks cause more property damage than most homeowners realize. A small slab leak or concealed pipe leak can waste thousands of gallons per month, drive up water bills, promote mold growth, and compromise your foundation. Finding the exact location of a leak without tearing up walls and floors requires specialized equipment and experience.

Our leak detection specialists use electronic listening devices, thermal imaging cameras, and pressure testing equipment to pinpoint leaks with precision. We locate leaks under slabs, behind walls, in ceilings, and underground — typically without cutting a single hole until we know exactly where the problem is.

Our Leak Detection Process

1

Visual & Meter Check

We start with a thorough visual inspection of the property and check the water meter with all fixtures off. If the meter is still spinning, there is an active leak somewhere in the system.

2

Pressure Testing

We isolate sections of the plumbing system and pressure test each one to narrow down which line is leaking — hot water, cold water, or sewer.

3

Electronic Location

Using acoustic listening devices and/or thermal imaging, we pinpoint the exact location of the leak. These tools detect the sound of water escaping under pressure or the temperature signature of a hidden leak.

4

Report & Repair Options

Once the leak is located, we mark the spot and explain your repair options with full pricing. Depending on the situation, we may recommend spot repair, reroute, or full repipe.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions About Leak Detection

Common signs include unexplained increases in water bills, the sound of running water when all fixtures are off, warm spots on floors (hot water slab leak), damp or discolored spots on walls or ceilings, musty odors, or a water meter that keeps running.

Electronic leak detection typically costs $250 to $500 depending on the complexity of the system and how accessible the plumbing is. This cost is often credited toward the repair if you proceed with our team.

Yes. That is the primary advantage of electronic leak detection. Our equipment can locate leaks behind walls, under slabs, and underground without any exploratory demolition. We only cut where we know the leak is.

Common causes include corroded copper pipes (pinhole leaks), shifting foundations that stress pipe joints, high water pressure that fatigues fittings, and deteriorating solder joints in older homes. Norwalk and La Mirada have many homes built in the 1950s through 1970s with original copper or galvanized plumbing.

Most residential leak detection calls take 1 to 2 hours. Complex multi-leak situations or large commercial properties may take longer. We schedule adequate time so the process is thorough.
