Signs of a hidden leak
Water bill went up
No change in use but a higher bill usually means water is leaking somewhere.
Wet spots & stains
Damp drywall, stains on the ceiling, soft or warped flooring.
Running water sound
You hear water when every fixture is off.
Musty smell
A slow leak inside a wall often smells before you can see it.
Burst or frozen pipe
A pipe that split in the cold or a fitting that let go. Shut off the main first.
Slab leak
Warm spots on the floor or cracks — a leak under the concrete slab.
Leak repair without the second contractor
Usually you call a plumber to fix the pipe, then look for someone to fix the hole in the wall. We do both.
- Locate the leak with the least possible opening
- Repair or replace the damaged pipe section
- Pressure-test the line
- Dry the area and check for mold
- Repair drywall, tile or flooring
- Clean up and walk the job with you

Frequently asked questions
How do you find a hidden leak?
We check the meter, test the lines and use moisture readings to narrow it down before opening anything.
How much does leak repair cost?
It depends on where the leak is and how much we have to open and rebuild. You get a free written estimate before work starts.
What should I do first?
Shut off the main water valve and, if water is near electrical, turn off that breaker. Then call us.
Is a leak covered by insurance?
Sudden leaks are often covered. We provide photos and a written estimate for your adjuster.
