Our Reviews
You’re looking at serious money when leaks go undetected. A single pinhole leak wastes up to 10,000 gallons annually, adding $500 to your water bills. Slab leaks in Sauk Village’s shifting clay soils? That’s $2,000-$5,000 in foundation damage if you wait.

We start with acoustic listening equipment that picks up the sound of water escaping from pipes – even through concrete and walls. This isn’t guesswork; it’s precision technology that pinpoints leaks within inches.
Next comes thermal imaging to detect temperature variations that indicate moisture. We can see what your eyes can’t, mapping the exact path of water damage before it becomes visible.
If needed, we use pressure testing to confirm our findings and ensure we’ve located every issue. The entire process happens without breaking through your walls or digging up your yard unless absolutely necessary. You get answers fast, and your property stays intact.

We handle every type of leak detection your Sauk Village home might need. Slab leaks under your foundation, pipe leaks behind walls, underground service line issues, and those mysterious wet spots that keep appearing.
Our service includes acoustic detection, thermal imaging, pressure testing, and electronic leak detection. We also provide detailed reports showing exactly where problems exist and what repairs are needed.
For Sauk Village homeowners, we understand the specific challenges of homes built on the Tinley Moraine. The soil conditions here create unique stresses on plumbing systems, and we’ve developed detection methods that account for these local factors. Your leak detection service isn’t just thorough – it’s tailored to what actually happens in your neighborhood.
Our acoustic leak detection equipment achieves 95% accuracy in pinpointing leak locations. This means we can tell you within inches where the problem exists, even through concrete slabs or behind finished walls.
The technology works by detecting the specific sound frequency that water makes when it escapes from pressurized pipes. Combined with thermal imaging that shows temperature variations, we create a complete picture of your leak without any destructive investigation.
This accuracy saves you money because we’re not guessing where to dig or cut. We know exactly where the problem is before we start any repair work.
No. Our primary detection methods are completely non-invasive. We use acoustic equipment, thermal cameras, and electronic sensors that work through existing surfaces without causing any damage.
In rare cases where we need to access a specific area for confirmation, we make the smallest possible opening and restore it to original condition. But 95% of the time, we can locate your leak and provide a complete assessment without touching your walls, floors, or landscaping.
This non-destructive approach is exactly why property owners choose professional detection over DIY methods. You get definitive answers without the mess and expense of exploratory demolition.
A single pinhole leak – something you might not even notice – can waste 6,000 to 10,000 gallons of water per year. That translates to $100-$500 added to your annual water bills, according to EPA data.
Toilet leaks are even worse, potentially wasting up to 200 gallons per day. A running toilet that you think is “just a minor annoyance” can cost you over $1,000 per year in wasted water.
The financial impact adds up fast, but the real danger is structural damage. That wasted water has to go somewhere, and it’s usually soaking into your foundation, walls, or creating the perfect environment for mold growth.
Sauk Village sits on clay soil that expands and contracts with moisture changes. This constant movement puts stress on the pipes running under your concrete slab, eventually causing them to crack or separate at joints.
Homes built in the 1970s, like many in Sauk Village, used copper pipes that are now approaching 50 years old. Copper corrodes over time, especially when it comes in contact with certain soil conditions common in our area.
The combination of aging pipes and shifting soil creates the perfect conditions for slab leaks. That’s why early detection is so important here – catching these leaks before they compromise your foundation can save you thousands in structural repairs.
We provide 24/7 emergency leak detection services throughout Sauk Village and the greater Chicago area. For true emergencies – like visible water damage or flooding – we can typically respond within hours.
Emergency situations get priority scheduling because we understand that water damage gets worse by the hour. The difference between a quick response and waiting until tomorrow can be thousands of dollars in additional damage.
Our emergency service includes immediate leak location, temporary shut-off if needed, and a complete assessment so you know exactly what you’re dealing with. We don’t just find the leak – we help you understand your options for immediate protection and permanent repair.
Yes, we provide upfront pricing for all leak detection services before we start any work. You’ll know exactly what the detection service costs, with no hidden fees or surprise charges.
Our estimates include the specific detection methods we’ll use, the time required, and what information you’ll receive in our report. If we discover additional issues during the detection process, we’ll discuss any extra costs with you before proceeding.
This transparent pricing approach is part of our commitment to honest service. You’re already dealing with a potential leak problem – the last thing you need is uncertainty about what the detection service will cost.
