Our Reviews
You know something’s wrong when your water bill jumps unexpectedly or you smell that musty odor that won’t go away. Maybe you’ve noticed wet spots on walls or heard water running when everything should be off.
Those aren’t just minor annoyances. They’re warning signs of leaks that could be costing you hundreds in wasted water and thousands in property damage right now.
When we find and fix your leak early, you avoid the nightmare scenarios: major structural damage, mold remediation, and emergency repairs that always happen at the worst possible time. Your home stays dry, your bills stay normal, and you sleep better knowing your biggest investment is protected.
All Rooter has been serving Chicagoland homeowners for over 24 years. We understand the unique challenges Broadview residents face, from older home plumbing systems to the freeze-thaw cycles that stress underground pipes.
As a locally owned business, we know that Broadview homeowners work hard for their investment. That’s why we focus on honest, upfront pricing and advanced technology that gets results without guessing games.
Licensed, bonded, and insured, we’ve built our reputation on solving problems the right way the first time. When your neighbors need leak detection, they call All Rooter because they know the job will be done professionally and completely.
First, our technicians use acoustic equipment to listen for the distinct sound water makes when escaping from pipes. Even tiny leaks create detectable frequencies that professional equipment can pinpoint.
Next, thermal imaging cameras scan your walls and floors for temperature variations that indicate moisture. When water escapes a pipe, it changes the temperature of surrounding materials in ways the naked eye can’t see.
For underground leaks, ground-penetrating radar maps your property’s subsurface to identify problem areas without digging exploratory holes. The technology shows exactly where pipes run and where water is pooling.
Once the leak location is confirmed, we access the problem area using minimally invasive methods. You get a precise repair without unnecessary property damage, and the leak gets fixed permanently.

Our leak detection service covers every type of water leak Broadview homeowners encounter. Underground water line leaks, leaks in walls, underfloor plumbing leaks, and slab leaks all get the same thorough treatment.
The service includes acoustic detection, thermal imaging, moisture detection, and video camera inspection when needed. You receive a detailed report showing exactly what was found and what needs to be repaired.
Broadview’s housing stock includes many homes built in the 1950s and 1960s, when different materials and methods were standard. Our experience with these older systems means faster, more accurate detection and repair recommendations that make sense for your specific situation and budget.
We use thermal imaging cameras and acoustic detection equipment to find leaks behind walls without cutting holes or removing drywall. The thermal camera detects temperature differences where water has escaped and cooled or warmed the surrounding materials.
Acoustic sensors pick up the sound of water escaping from pipes, even when that sound is too faint for human ears. By combining these technologies, we pinpoint the exact location of wall leaks.
This means you avoid the mess, expense, and time of exploratory demolition. The repair work targets only the specific problem area, minimizing disruption to your home and keeping costs reasonable.
Yes, we use ground-penetrating radar and acoustic detection to locate underground leaks without excavation. Ground-penetrating radar sends electromagnetic waves into the soil that reflect off pipes and water accumulation, creating a detailed underground map.
Acoustic equipment detects the sound of pressurized water escaping underground pipes. Even when buried several feet deep, these leaks create detectable sound signatures that professional equipment can isolate and trace to the source.
Once the leak location is confirmed, excavation focuses on the specific problem area rather than guessing and digging multiple test holes. This saves your landscaping, reduces labor costs, and gets your water service restored faster.
Professional leak detection is significantly more accurate than DIY methods because of specialized equipment and training. Homeowners typically follow visible water damage, but gravity carries water far from the actual leak source, leading to wrong conclusions about location.
Our acoustic and thermal imaging equipment pinpoints leak sources with precision, not guesswork. This prevents the common mistake of cutting into walls or digging in the wrong areas, which wastes time and money while the real problem continues.
Professional detection also identifies the full extent of damage and whether multiple leaks exist. This comprehensive approach prevents surprises during repairs and ensures all problems get addressed in one service call.
Our leak detection service includes a complete property assessment using multiple detection methods. This covers acoustic detection, thermal imaging, moisture measurement, and visual inspection of all accessible plumbing areas.
You receive a detailed written report documenting all findings, including photos of problem areas and recommendations for repairs. The report includes cost estimates for necessary work, so you can plan and budget appropriately.
The service also includes follow-up consultation to answer questions about the findings and repair options. Our goal is to give you complete information so you can make informed decisions about your plumbing system.
We provide 24/7 emergency leak detection service throughout Broadview and the greater Chicago area. Emergency response typically occurs within hours of your call, depending on current service demand and weather conditions.
For urgent situations like major water damage or suspected slab leaks, we prioritize rapid response to minimize property damage. We maintain fully equipped service vehicles and trained technicians ready for emergency calls.
Non-emergency leak detection appointments are usually available within 24-48 hours. We understand that even “small” leaks can become expensive problems quickly, so prompt service scheduling is a priority for all leak detection requests.
Yes, we stand behind all leak detection work with a satisfaction guarantee. If the reported leak location proves inaccurate during repair work, we return to re-evaluate the situation at no additional charge.
Our detection methods have proven highly reliable over 24 years of service, but we recognize that customer confidence is essential. This guarantee ensures you receive accurate results or additional service to resolve any discrepancies.
We also guarantee that detection work won’t damage your property. Our non-invasive methods protect your walls, floors, and landscaping while providing the accurate information needed for effective repairs.
