How leak detection works, step by step
Read the meter under controlled conditions
Everything off, valves closed in sequence. The meter tells us which side of the house the loss is on.
Listen for it
Pressurized leaks make sound through pipe and soil. Acoustic gear picks it up through slab and drywall.
Confirm with thermal and moisture readings
Temperature differences and damp mapping pin the spot down to a workable area.

What customers say
Called at 11pm with water coming through the kitchen ceiling. Someone picked up, talked me through the shutoff, and had a plumber at the house before midnight. The price he quoted was the price I paid.
Danielle R., Reading, MIWater leak repair
Our water heater died on a Sunday and I assumed we'd be cold until Tuesday. New tank in the same afternoon and the old one taken away. No upsell, no lecture.
Marcus T., Reading, MIWater heater replacement
Third plumber we've had out for the same drain. First one who ran a camera and actually showed me the root ball. Jetted it, showed me the after footage, and it's been clear ever since.
