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 Palatine technicians use acoustic and thermal equipment to find them without tearing into walls or floors on a guess.
Detection equipment on every Palatine truck means we don't have to guess and open drywall speculatively.
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.
From a rising water bill with no visible cause to a damp spot that keeps returning, we locate the source before recommending repair.
Listening equipment picks up the sound of water escaping under pressure, even through concrete or behind walls.
We narrow a slab leak to a specific small area rather than an entire room.
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.
Pressure testing and specialized equipment locate leaks in pool plumbing and irrigation lines that waste significant water.
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.
Detection and repair are backed by a written warranty on the diagnosis and any repair performed.

Our goal is always to find the leak first, keeping any necessary opening as small as possible.
Reduced water pressure combined with a rising bill is another common early indicator worth investigating.
Yes, we perform pressure testing and detection on pool plumbing and irrigation lines, not just household supply lines.
