Plumbing Leak Detection from Fort Pierce to Melbourne

A drip you can see, or a water bill that doesn't add up? We look for the leak and talk through the fix.

Finding the leak, then fixing it

Some leaks announce themselves — a drip under the sink, a puddle at the water heater, a faucet that never quite stops. Others show up as a water bill that doesn't make sense, the faint sound of running water, or a meter that keeps moving after everything in the house is off.

We look for plumbing leaks and repair the ones we find. When you call, tell us what you see, whether the water bill changed, and whether you can hear water running.

  • Dripping faucets and shower valves
  • Leaking supply lines and shutoff valves
  • Toilets that run or leak at the base or the supply
  • Water heater leaks
  • Hose bibs and other outdoor faucets
  • Hidden leaks you only notice on the bill or at the meter

A simple meter check you can do

If you suspect a leak but can't see one, turn off every faucet, ice maker and appliance that uses water, and don't flush. Look at your water meter. Many meters have a small leak indicator or a dial that should sit still when no water is being used. If it keeps moving, water is going somewhere.

That test doesn't tell you where the leak is, but it tells you the system isn't holding. Call us with what you observed and we'll take it from there.

Hidden leaks, including under a slab

Leaks inside a wall, under a slab or underground are harder to pin down. We start with what you can see and hear, the fixtures, and the meter. If a leak may be under a slab or somewhere we cannot reach without opening things up, we'll explain what we found and what the next step would be. We don't guess, and we don't claim a special gadget will find every leak.

A burst pipe or fast leak is an urgent problem. Shut the water off at the main if you can, stay out of standing water near electrical outlets, and call us.

Leak questions

How do I know if I have a water leak?

Common signs are a water bill that jumped without more use, the sound of running water when everything is off, wet spots, dripping under a sink, a toilet that runs, or a water meter that keeps moving after you've turned everything off. If you see standing water or a burst pipe, shut the water off at the main if you can and call us.

What should I do if a pipe bursts or water is going everywhere?

Shut the water off at the main shutoff if you know where it is. If a water heater is leaking, also shut off its power or gas. Stay out of standing water if electrical outlets or appliances are involved. Then call us. We're open Monday through Friday, 8 AM to 6 PM, and emergency service may be available after hours, so call and ask.

How much does a plumber cost?

Every job is different. It depends on what's wrong, what it takes to fix it and the parts involved. Call us to talk through your job and pricing. Our trip charge is credited toward your repair when you go ahead with the work.

Where we work
