Our Reviews
You’re dealing with something that could be costing you hundreds every month without you even knowing it. A leak the size of a dime wastes 10,000 gallons of water monthly—that’s over $100 added to your bill, plus the hidden damage happening behind your walls.
When we locate your leak, you get your peace of mind back. No more wondering why your water bill keeps climbing. No more worrying about mold growing in places you can’t see. No more foundation problems that started as a small leak nobody caught in time.
Our advanced leak detection technology finds the exact source without guesswork, without unnecessary digging, and without the mess that comes with old-school detection methods. You know exactly what you’re dealing with and exactly what it’ll take to fix it.
All Rooter Hydro Jetting Experts Inc. has been solving plumbing problems for Chicago-area homeowners and businesses who need reliable solutions, not run-around excuses. We’re locally owned, which means we understand the unique challenges that come with Country Club Hills’ plumbing systems—from aging infrastructure to seasonal ground shifts that affect underground pipes.
We’re licensed, bonded, and insured because that’s what professional service looks like. Our team doesn’t just show up with basic tools and hope for the best. We invest in the technology and training that gets results the first time.
When you call us, you’re working with plumbers who’ve seen every type of leak scenario in this area. We know which detection methods work best for different pipe materials, soil conditions, and building types common in Country Club Hills.
We start with a comprehensive assessment of your property and plumbing system. This isn’t a quick walk-through—we’re looking for signs you might have missed, checking water pressure variations, and identifying the most likely leak locations based on your home’s age and plumbing layout.
Next comes the technology. We use electronic leak detection equipment that combines acoustic listening devices, thermal imaging, and moisture detection sensors. These tools let us “see” through walls and under slabs to pinpoint exactly where water is escaping. The acoustic equipment picks up the sound frequency changes that happen when water escapes from pressurized pipes.
For underground leaks, we use ground-penetrating radar and specialized probes that detect moisture changes in soil. This equipment is sensitive enough to locate even small leaks before they become major problems. We can find leaks under concrete slabs, behind walls, and in underground service lines without any destructive digging.
Once we’ve located the leak, we document everything with photos and detailed reports. You get a clear explanation of what we found, why it’s happening, and what your repair options are—with upfront pricing so there are no surprises.

Our leak detection service covers every type of water leak that can affect your Country Club Hills property. We locate slab leaks under concrete foundations, wall leaks behind drywall and tile, underground service line leaks, and hidden leaks in crawl spaces or basements.
The service includes pressure testing to confirm leak presence, electronic detection using multiple technologies, and detailed documentation of our findings. You receive a comprehensive report with photos, leak location mapping, and repair recommendations with transparent pricing.
For Country Club Hills residents, this is especially important because of the area’s mix of older homes with original plumbing and newer construction. Older copper and galvanized steel pipes are prone to corrosion-related leaks, while newer homes can have installation-related issues or ground settlement problems. We understand these local factors and adjust our detection approach accordingly.
We also provide emergency leak detection services because some leaks can’t wait. A burst slab leak or major underground line break needs immediate attention to prevent foundation damage and extensive water loss. Our 24/7 availability means you can get professional leak detection any time, day or night.
The most common signs are unexplained increases in your water bill, the sound of running water when all fixtures are turned off, and warm spots on floors that might indicate hot water line leaks. You might also notice decreased water pressure, damp or discolored areas on walls or ceilings, or a musty smell that could indicate mold growth from hidden moisture.
To test for leaks yourself, turn off all water sources in your home and check your water meter. Wait 15 minutes without using any water, then check the meter again. If the reading has changed, you likely have a leak somewhere in your system. However, this test only confirms a leak exists—it doesn’t tell you where it is or how serious the problem might be.
Yes, our electronic leak detection equipment is specifically designed to locate leaks without any destructive methods. We use acoustic listening devices that detect the sound frequency changes when water escapes from pipes, thermal imaging cameras that show temperature variations caused by water leaks, and moisture sensors that detect water presence through walls and floors.
For slab leaks, we use specialized ground-penetrating equipment that can pinpoint the exact location of the leak under your concrete foundation. This technology is so precise that when repairs are needed, contractors know exactly where to access the pipe with minimal disruption to your property. The only time we recommend any kind of access opening is when we’ve already located the leak and it’s the most efficient way to complete the repair.
Most residential leak detection services take 2-4 hours, depending on your home’s size and the complexity of the plumbing system. We start with visual inspection and basic testing, which usually takes 30-45 minutes. The electronic detection phase typically takes 1-2 hours as we systematically check different areas and confirm our findings.
For more complex situations—like multiple potential leak locations or older homes with complicated plumbing layouts—the process might take longer. We always give you an estimated timeframe upfront and keep you informed throughout the process. Emergency leak detection for obvious problems like slab leaks or major line breaks can often be completed more quickly since we’re focusing on a specific area.
With our advanced detection equipment, we successfully locate the vast majority of leaks on the first visit. Our acoustic, thermal, and electronic detection tools are sensitive enough to find even very small leaks that haven’t caused obvious damage yet.
In the rare cases where initial detection doesn’t pinpoint the exact source, we use additional methods like pressure testing individual sections of your plumbing system or video pipe inspection to examine the inside of pipes directly. We don’t give up until we find the source of your leak—that’s part of our commitment to solving your problem completely, not just partially.
Professional leak detection typically costs a few hundred dollars, while undetected water damage can cost thousands or even tens of thousands to repair. A small slab leak that goes undetected for months can cause foundation problems, flooring damage, and mold issues that require extensive remediation.
Consider that a dime-sized leak wastes over 10,000 gallons per month, adding $100+ to your water bill. Over a year, you’re looking at $1,200+ in wasted water alone, not counting the structural damage that’s accumulating. Early detection pays for itself many times over by preventing major damage and catching problems while they’re still manageable and less expensive to fix.
Yes, we provide 24/7 emergency leak detection services for urgent situations like suspected slab leaks, major underground line breaks, or any leak that’s causing active water damage to your property. Emergency situations require immediate professional attention to prevent extensive damage and minimize repair costs.
When you call for emergency service, we prioritize rapid response and focus our detection efforts on stopping the immediate problem. We understand that water damage gets worse every hour, and mold can start growing within 24-48 hours of water exposure. Our emergency service includes the same thorough detection process, but we work quickly to identify the source so repairs can begin as soon as possible.
