Frequently Asked Questions

We use non-invasive technology like thermal imaging cameras and acoustic listening devices. These tools allow us to “see” temperature variations from moisture and “hear” the exact location of escaping water without damaging your drywall.

The most expensive leaks are often the ones you cannot see. Underground water main leaks, slab leaks beneath your foundation, or constantly running toilets can waste thousands of gallons of water a month completely out of sight.

A slab leak occurs when the water pipes running underneath your home’s concrete foundation crack or burst. If left untreated, the escaping water can erode the soil beneath your house, leading to severe foundation shifting and structural damage.

It depends on your specific policy. Many insurance policies will cover the cost of accessing the leak (like opening a wall) and repairing the resulting water damage, even if they don’t cover the actual plumbing pipe repair itself. We are happy to provide detailed reports for your adjuster.
