Des Plaines properties face specific challenges. Many homes here are over 25 years old, with plumbing systems that are reaching the end of their reliable lifespan. Illinois winters are particularly hard on pipes, causing freeze-thaw cycles that create cracks and weak points.
We use non-destructive detection methods that protect your property while giving you accurate results. Our advanced equipment finds problems other companies might miss, and our local experience means we know exactly where to look in Des Plaines homes.
Leak detection costs vary based on your property size and the complexity of your plumbing system, but most Des Plaines homeowners pay between $200-$500 for comprehensive detection services. This investment typically saves thousands compared to the damage costs from undetected leaks.
We provide upfront pricing before starting any work, so you know exactly what to expect. The cost often pays for itself quickly through lower water bills once we locate and repair hidden leaks. Many customers are surprised to learn they’ve been losing hundreds of dollars annually to leaks they didn’t know existed.
Absolutely. Our thermal imaging and infrared technology locates leaks behind walls and under floors without any demolition or property damage. We use electromagnetic pipeline locators and acoustic sensors that pinpoint exact leak locations through non-invasive methods.

Watch for unexplained increases in your water bill, wet or discolored spots on walls and ceilings, musty odors that could indicate mold growth, and the sound of running water when no fixtures are in use. Low water pressure throughout your home can also signal hidden leaks.
In Des Plaines, pay special attention after harsh winter weather. Freeze-thaw cycles often create new leaks that don’t show up immediately. If your home is over 25 years old, consider professional detection as preventive maintenance. Early detection saves money and prevents the structural damage that comes from long-term moisture exposure.
