Our Reviews
Your water bills drop back to normal. That mysterious damp spot disappears. You sleep better knowing your home isn’t slowly rotting from the inside out.
No more wondering if that sound you hear is water running somewhere it shouldn’t. No more watching your water meter spin when everything’s turned off. We use infrared technology and thermal imaging to pinpoint exactly where water is escaping—without ripping apart your walls or digging up your yard.
The peace of mind is immediate. You know exactly what you’re dealing with, how much it’ll cost to fix, and that it’s handled by professionals who’ve seen it all before in Morgan Park’s unique conditions.
All Rooter Hydro Jetting Experts Inc. has been serving Morgan Park and the greater Chicago area with professional plumbing services for years. We’re licensed, bonded, and insured—not because we have to be, but because your home deserves that protection.
Chicago winters are brutal on plumbing systems. We’ve seen what happens when pipes freeze and burst in February, when your basement floods because a hidden leak finally gave way, when tree roots from Morgan Park’s mature neighborhoods work their way into underground lines.
We’re the local team that understands how Chicago’s high water pressure, freezing temperatures, and aging infrastructure create the perfect storm for plumbing problems. When your neighbor recommends a plumber, it’s probably us.
First, we listen. You tell us what you’ve noticed—higher water bills, damp spots, sounds of running water when everything’s off. We ask the right questions because experience teaches you what to look for.
Then we use professional-grade equipment. Infrared cameras show us temperature differences that reveal hidden moisture. Thermal imaging lets us see through walls without opening them. Electronic leak detection equipment and acoustic listening devices pick up sounds your ears can’t hear.
We pinpoint the exact location before we touch anything. No guessing, no trial and error that costs you money. Once we know exactly where the problem is, we access it with minimal disruption and fix it right the first time. You get a clear explanation of what we found, what we fixed, and how to prevent it from happening again.

Our leak detection service covers everything from underground water line leaks to hidden leaks in walls and under floors. We handle residential and commercial properties throughout Morgan Park, using the same advanced technology regardless of the job size.
Morgan Park’s housing stock includes many older homes with mature landscaping—both beautiful and problematic for plumbing. Tree roots from the area’s established neighborhoods often invade sewer lines and water pipes. We know which streets have the worst root problems and which areas are most susceptible to winter freeze damage.
We also understand that Morgan Park residents value their property investments. That’s why our detection methods prioritize preserving your landscaping, finished basements, and renovated spaces. We find the leak with minimal disruption, fix it professionally, and restore your property to its original condition.
We use infrared technology and thermal imaging cameras that detect temperature differences behind walls and under floors. When water leaks, it creates moisture that shows up as temperature variations on our equipment.
These cameras let us see exactly where water is accumulating without any demolition. We can trace the leak back to its source, whether it’s a pinhole in a pipe or a joint that’s failed. Only after we know the precise location do we make the smallest possible opening to access and repair the leak.
This technology has been a game-changer for homeowners because it eliminates the guesswork that used to mean tearing apart entire walls to find a small leak.
The most common sign is a water bill that’s higher than usual without any change in your usage. If your meter keeps running when all faucets and appliances are off, you definitely have a leak somewhere.
You might notice damp spots on walls or floors, especially in basements or areas near plumbing. Mold or mildew odors, water stains, or paint that’s bubbling or peeling can all indicate hidden moisture. Some people hear the sound of running water when everything should be quiet.
In Morgan Park’s older homes, check areas where pipes run through exterior walls—these are especially vulnerable during Chicago’s freeze-thaw cycles. If you see any of these signs, it’s worth having a professional take a look before a small problem becomes a big one.
The cost depends on the complexity of the detection and the location of the leak, but we provide upfront pricing before any work begins. Most residential leak detection services range from a basic visual inspection to more complex electronic detection for hidden leaks.
What’s important to understand is that professional leak detection usually pays for itself quickly. A hidden leak can waste thousands of gallons of water and cause damage that costs far more than the detection service. We’ve seen cases where a $200 leak detection service prevented thousands in water damage repairs.
We’ll give you a clear estimate based on your specific situation and explain exactly what our service includes. No surprises, no hidden fees—just honest pricing for professional work.
Yes, we use electronic leak detection equipment and acoustic listening devices specifically designed for underground leaks. These tools can pinpoint the exact location of a leak in your underground water line without any excavation.
The equipment detects the sound of water escaping from pipes, even when it’s several feet underground. We can trace your water line from the street to your house and identify exactly where the leak is occurring. This precision means we only dig where necessary, preserving your landscaping and reducing repair costs.
This is especially valuable in Morgan Park where many homes have mature landscaping and established gardens that homeowners want to protect. We find the leak first, then make the most targeted repair possible.
Absolutely. We offer 24/7 emergency service because water leaks don’t wait for business hours. When a pipe bursts or you discover a major leak, every minute counts in preventing water damage to your home.
Chicago’s weather can create plumbing emergencies at any time—frozen pipes that burst when temperatures drop, or sudden leaks that appear during spring thaws. We understand that these situations need immediate attention, especially in Morgan Park where many homes have finished basements that can be severely damaged by flooding.
When you call our emergency line, you’ll reach a real person who can dispatch a technician quickly. We come equipped with leak detection equipment and basic repair materials so we can often stop the immediate problem and plan permanent repairs.
Most leak detection services take between one to three hours, depending on the size of your property and the complexity of the leak. Simple cases where we can quickly identify the problem area might be resolved in under an hour.
More complex situations—like tracking down an underground leak or searching through a large home with multiple potential sources—can take longer. We use systematic methods to eliminate possibilities and zero in on the actual leak location, which is more thorough but ultimately saves time and money.
We’ll give you a realistic timeframe when we arrive and keep you updated throughout the process. Our goal is to be thorough enough to find the leak the first time, so you don’t have to deal with multiple service calls or ongoing problems.
