Our leak detection services pinpoint exactly where water escapes your system. No more guessing. No more tearing apart walls hoping to find the source. You get precise locations and immediate solutions.
When we find your leak, you stop the waste immediately. Your water bills return to normal. Your property stays protected. And you sleep better knowing there’s no hidden moisture creating mold or structural damage behind your walls.
All Rooter Hydro Jetting Experts Inc. has served Chicago homeowners and businesses for years, understanding exactly how this city’s aging infrastructure and harsh winters affect plumbing systems. We’re licensed, bonded, and insured because your protection matters.
Chicago’s freeze-thaw cycles create unique challenges. Old galvanized pipes common in many neighborhoods develop pinhole leaks. Clay sewer lines shift with soil movement. We’ve seen it all and know exactly where to look.
When you call us, you’re working with professionals who live and work in this community. We understand Chicago plumbing like no one else.
First, we listen to your concerns and examine your water usage patterns. High bills, damp spots, or unusual sounds all provide clues about where problems might exist.
Next, we use advanced electronic leak detection equipment to scan your property. Our tools detect sound frequencies that pinpoint exact leak locations without destructive digging or wall removal. This technology works for underground water leak detection, leak detection in walls, and underfloor water leak detection.
Once we locate the problem, we explain exactly what’s happening and provide upfront pricing for repairs. No surprises. No hidden fees. You know the cost before any work begins, and we complete repairs efficiently to restore your system’s integrity.

Our leak detection services cover every area where water can escape your system. Underground water leak detection finds problems in main water lines and sewer connections before they flood basements or damage foundations.
Leak detection in walls locates problems behind drywall, tile, and fixtures without destructive demolition. Underfloor water leak detection identifies issues beneath concrete slabs and wooden floors that could cause structural damage if left untreated.
Chicago’s unique challenges require specialized expertise. We understand how the city’s water pressure variations affect older pipe joints. We know which neighborhoods have problematic soil conditions that shift underground lines. This local knowledge helps us find problems faster and provide solutions that last in Chicago’s demanding environment.
We use advanced electronic leak detection equipment that listens for the specific sound frequencies water makes when escaping pipes under pressure. These tools pinpoint exact locations within inches, eliminating guesswork.
Our equipment works through concrete, soil, and walls without any demolition. We can detect underground water leaks beneath driveways and foundations, find problems inside walls without removing drywall, and locate underfloor leaks without tearing up flooring.
This non-invasive approach saves you thousands in restoration costs while getting you answers fast. Most leak detection jobs take just a few hours, and you’ll know exactly where the problem exists before any repair work begins.
Unexplained increases in your water bill are the most common early warning sign. If your usage jumps without changes in your routine, water is escaping somewhere in your system.
Other signs include damp or warm spots on floors, walls that feel soft or show discoloration, the sound of running water when all fixtures are off, and musty odors that suggest moisture buildup. Outside, you might notice unusually green patches in your yard or areas that stay wet longer than surrounding soil.
Don’t ignore these warning signs. Small leaks become major problems quickly, especially in Chicago’s freeze-thaw climate where water damage can compound rapidly during temperature changes.
A tiny pinhole leak can waste over 900 gallons monthly. That’s enough to fill a hot tub every single month, adding $30-50 to your water bill for absolutely nothing.
Larger leaks waste exponentially more. A leak the size of a dime can waste 6,000 gallons monthly, costing $200+ in wasted water alone. Underground leaks often go undetected longer, sometimes wasting 10,000+ gallons before property owners notice problems.
Beyond the wasted water costs, hidden leaks cause structural damage, mold growth, and foundation problems that cost thousands to repair. Finding and fixing leaks immediately prevents this cascade of expensive damage.
Yes, we provide 24/7 emergency leak detection services throughout Chicago and surrounding areas. Water emergencies don’t wait for business hours, and neither do we.
Emergency situations include sudden water bill spikes, visible water damage appearing rapidly, sounds of running water with no apparent source, or water pooling in basements or around foundations. These problems require immediate professional attention to prevent extensive damage.
When you call our emergency line, you reach our team directly, not an answering service. We dispatch experienced technicians immediately and provide upfront pricing even for emergency calls, so you know what to expect before work begins.
Absolutely. Chicago’s older neighborhoods have extensive galvanized pipe systems that present unique challenges, but our leak detection equipment works effectively on all pipe materials and ages.
Galvanized pipes develop pinhole leaks as they age, often in hard-to-reach areas behind walls or under concrete slabs. Our electronic detection tools identify these small leaks before they become major ruptures that flood basements or damage structural elements.
We understand how Chicago’s water chemistry affects different pipe materials over time. This knowledge helps us predict where problems typically develop and focus our detection efforts efficiently, saving you time and money while protecting your property.
Once we pinpoint your leak’s exact location, we provide a detailed explanation of the problem and present repair options with upfront pricing. You’ll understand exactly what needs fixing and how much it costs before any work begins.
Most leak repairs can be completed the same day, especially when we’ve located the problem precisely. We carry common repair materials and have the tools necessary for most residential and commercial leak situations.
After repairs, we test the entire system to ensure the leak is completely eliminated and water pressure returns to normal. You’ll receive documentation of the work completed and guidance on preventing similar problems in the future.
