Electronic Leak Detection in Los Angeles

Electronic and acoustic equipment to locate hidden leaks behind walls, under slabs, and underground u2014 without destructive searching.

Electronic leak detection uses amplification equipment, ground microphones, and correlation technology to locate the sound of water escaping a pressurized pipe u2014 even when it’s buried under concrete, inside a wall cavity, or running beneath landscaping. It’s the difference between opening a 4-inch hole at the exact leak point versus tearing out a wall to search.

We use this method for slab leaks, pool plumbing leaks, buried supply line leaks, and leaks inside walls that haven’t yet caused visible water damage. The detection process typically takes 1u20132 hours depending on the scope, after which we present findings and repair options with upfront pricing.
