Leak Detection in Brandon & Tampa Bay

Hidden leaks under slabs, behind walls, and underground waste water and money. We locate the source with thermal imaging, acoustic listening, and pressure testing so you can repair the right spot — not tear up the wrong one.

Signs you may have a hidden leak

Call if any of these sound familiar. Early detection is cheaper than floor, foundation, or mold repairs.

Unexplained high water bill

Usage went up with no change in household habits.

Warm spots on the floor

A slab leak on a hot line often shows as a warm patch on tile or concrete.

Low pressure or running meter

All fixtures off, but the meter or pressure tank still moves.

Damp walls, musty smell, or cracked tile

Moisture where there should be none — including under cabinets and along baseboards.

Slab leak and under-slab leak detection

We start non-invasive. The goal is a clear location before anyone opens a floor or wall. This is the visit for hidden water leaks under a slab, behind walls, or underground in Brandon and Tampa Bay.

1

Listen and inspect

Acoustic listening and a walkthrough of fixtures, water heater, and visible piping.

2

Thermal imaging

A thermal camera helps show temperature changes from water moving under slabs or inside walls.

3

Pressure test

We isolate the system and confirm whether the leak is on the supply side, and how serious it is.

4

Show you the findings

You get a plain-language explanation and photos when they help. Then we price the repair before work starts.

We locate slab leaks, under-slab leaks, underground leaks, in-wall leaks, and fixture leaks for homes and small commercial properties in Brandon, Tampa, and the Tampa Bay area. License CFC1433863.

Leak detection questions

Do you find slab leaks without tearing up the floor first?

Yes. We start with acoustic listening, thermal imaging, and pressure testing so we can mark the likely spot before any demolition.

What cities do you cover?

Brandon and the greater Tampa Bay area, including nearby Hillsborough County homes and small commercial properties.

Will this help with an insurance claim?

We document what we find with photos and a plain-language report. Coverage still depends on your policy and whether the leak is sudden or long-term.

Is leak detection included with the repair?

Detection is its own visit. If the repair is straightforward, we can often do it the same trip after you approve the price.
