All Rooter Hydro Jetting Experts Inc. has been solving Chicago-area plumbing problems for years. We understand how Harvey’s older homes and changing weather patterns create unique leak detection challenges.
Our licensed, bonded, and insured team uses the same advanced equipment that major commercial buildings rely on. We’re not the cheapest option in Harvey—and that’s intentional. You’re investing in accurate detection the first time, which saves you from tearing up the wrong walls or digging up your yard unnecessarily.
First, we listen to your concerns and inspect the obvious problem areas. Then we use electronic detection equipment to scan for moisture and pressure changes throughout your plumbing system.
Our thermal imaging cameras can spot temperature differences that indicate water movement behind walls. Acoustic equipment picks up the sound of water escaping from pipes, even when it’s barely audible. We also test water pressure at different points to pinpoint exactly where the system is losing water.
Once we’ve located the problem, we explain exactly what we found and what it’ll take to fix it. No surprises, no hidden costs—just straightforward solutions.

We handle every type of leak detection Harvey homeowners face. Underground water line leaks that are driving up your bills. Leaks in walls that are creating moisture problems. Underfloor leaks that could damage your foundation.
Harvey’s mix of older homes and newer construction means we see everything from corroded galvanized pipes to modern PEX systems with installation issues. Our equipment works on any type of plumbing material, and we understand how Harvey’s clay soil and freeze-thaw cycles affect underground pipes.
Whether it’s a slab leak under your concrete floor or a pinhole leak behind your kitchen sink, we’ll find it without unnecessary demolition.
Leak detection in Harvey typically costs between $150-$400, depending on the complexity of your plumbing system and the type of leak we’re hunting. Simple above-ground leaks cost less to locate than underground or in-wall leaks that require specialized equipment.
We provide upfront pricing before we start any work. Many Harvey homeowners find that professional leak detection actually saves them money by preventing expensive exploratory demolition and ensuring repairs target the right spot the first time.
The cost of detection is usually a fraction of what you’d spend on water damage repair if the leak continues undetected.
Yes, our electronic leak detection equipment can locate most wall leaks without cutting into drywall. We use thermal imaging cameras that detect temperature changes from water movement and moisture meters that identify wet areas behind walls.
Acoustic equipment picks up the sound of water escaping from pipes, even through multiple layers of construction material. In many cases, we can pinpoint the exact location of a wall leak and mark it for minimal, targeted repair.
However, some older Harvey homes with thick plaster walls or unusual construction may require small access holes for confirmation. When this is necessary, we explain why and get your approval first.
Most underground leak detection in Harvey takes 1-3 hours, depending on your property size and how deep your water lines are buried. We start by checking your water meter and testing pressure at various points to narrow down the search area.
Our electronic equipment can trace underground pipes and identify where they’re losing water. Harvey’s relatively flat terrain usually makes this process straightforward, though tree roots or multiple utility lines can add complexity.
We’ll give you a realistic timeframe when we arrive and keep you updated if we encounter unexpected complications that extend the detection process.
Call us if your water bill increased significantly without explanation, you hear running water when all fixtures are off, or you notice wet spots in your yard during dry weather. Musty odors, water stains on walls or ceilings, and warm spots on floors can also indicate hidden leaks.
In Harvey’s older neighborhoods, we often find leaks in homes where residents noticed their water pressure dropping or heard gurgling sounds in pipes. Foundation cracks, especially new ones, sometimes indicate underground leaks that are washing away soil.
Don’t wait for visible water damage. These early warning signs usually mean a leak has been active for weeks or months and needs professional attention.
Yes, All Rooter Hydro Jetting Experts Inc. provides complete leak repair services after detection. We handle everything from simple pipe patching to full section replacement, depending on what your situation requires.
Our team carries common repair materials and can often fix straightforward leaks the same day we detect them. More complex repairs, like slab leaks or main line replacements, may require scheduling a follow-up appointment with specialized equipment.
We explain all repair options and costs upfront, so you can decide whether to proceed immediately or schedule the work for a more convenient time. Emergency repairs are available 24/7 when leaks threaten your property.
Our professional-grade detection equipment is typically accurate within 12-18 inches of the actual leak location. This precision prevents unnecessary demolition and reduces repair costs by targeting the exact problem area.
Electronic leak detection combines multiple technologies—acoustic listening devices, ground microphones, thermal imaging, and pressure testing—to triangulate leak positions. This multi-method approach ensures we don’t miss leaks or identify false positives.
Harvey’s soil conditions and typical plumbing layouts work well with our equipment. While no detection method is 100% perfect, our accuracy rate means most customers avoid the expense and disruption of exploratory digging or wall removal.
