An unexplained spike on the water bill, a damp patch on the floor with no obvious source, or the faint sound of running water somewhere in the walls — hidden leaks are frustrating precisely because you can't see them. Our Elwin technicians use acoustic and thermal equipment to find them without tearing into walls or floors on a guess.
We use listening equipment and thermal imaging to locate leaks through walls, floors, and slabs without demolition.
Locating the leak precisely keeps any necessary opening small and targeted rather than exploratory.
Every technician performing detection work carries full licensing and liability coverage.
We walk you through what the equipment found, not just hand you a bill.
These are the hidden leak scenarios we investigate most often across Elwin, IL.
Listening equipment picks up the sound of water escaping under pressure, even through concrete or behind walls.
A leak beneath a concrete slab is pinpointed using acoustic and thermal methods before any concrete is opened.
Infrared imaging reveals temperature differences caused by escaping hot or cold water behind walls and under floors.
We locate the actual leak point, which is often not directly behind the visible water stain.
Underground irrigation and pool line leaks are diagnosed with the same precision as household leaks.
We check for common culprits — running toilets, slab leaks, irrigation issues — starting with the most likely first.
A quick call gets a detection specialist scheduled, often same-day.
A technician arrives with acoustic and thermal detection equipment ready to survey the affected area.
You'll understand exactly where the leak is and what fixing it will involve before agreeing to anything.
The identified leak is repaired, or we connect you with our repair team, and the fix is tested to confirm the leak is resolved.

"Thermal imaging found a hot water line leak we never would have located on our own." — Elwin resident
"Kept the slab opening small because they found the exact spot first. Minimal mess." — Elwin customer

Sensitive listening equipment picks up the sound signature of pressurized water escaping through a crack or joint, even through concrete.
Ask dispatch for current detection pricing — it's disclosed before scheduling.
In most cases, yes — detection equipment locates the leak before any cutting, so demolition is targeted and minimal.
An unexplained water bill increase, warm spots on the floor, or the sound of running water when everything's off are common signs.
Outdoor systems are diagnosed with the same precision equipment used for household leaks.
Detection and repair are separate decisions — you're never obligated to use us for the repair after detection.
