Leak Detection in Fort Lauderdale

A water bill that jumps for no reason, a warm spot on a tile floor, or the sound of running water when every tap is off usually means a hidden leak. In southwest Fort Lauderdale, Davie and Plantation, many ranch homes from the 1950s-70s have copper or galvanized lines running through or under concrete slabs, where leaks are hard to see.

How we find the leak

1. Meter test. We shut off fixtures and watch your water meter to confirm water is being lost and roughly how fast.
2. Pressure isolation. We isolate hot and cold sides and individual branches to narrow down the area.
3. Acoustic and thermal tools. Listening equipment and thermal imaging pinpoint the spot so we only open what is necessary.

After we find it

You get a written explanation of where the leak is and the repair options: a spot repair, rerouting the line overhead, or repiping the affected section. We explain the trade-offs in cost and disruption before you decide.

Check before you call

Turn off all fixtures and look at the meter's leak indicator. If it is still moving, call us at (754) 351-7192.
