Our professional leak detection services cater to both residential and commercial clients, locating different types of leaks in various property types. This includes leak detection in walls, underfloor water leak detection, underground water leak detection, and comprehensive plumbing leak detection throughout your Forest Glen property.
Our service covers slab leaks, plumbing leaks, pool leaks, and more using non-invasive methods and state-of-the-art equipment. Older Forest Glen homes often suffer from water leaks in aging plumbing fixtures and pipes, particularly iron pipes or galvanized steel installations vulnerable to corrosion.
Forest Glen’s historic homes present unique challenges with their vintage plumbing systems and mature tree roots that can damage underground pipes. Our professional detection identifies these issues before they become major problems, whether it’s a slow leak behind bathroom walls or underground pipe damage from shifting soil conditions common in Chicago’s climate.
We offer fair and affordable pricing for leak detection services, with costs determined by the number of leaks, their location, replacement parts needed, and time spent on the project. Most leak detection services in the Forest Glen area range from $200 to $500 depending on the complexity and scope of the investigation.
The investment in professional leak detection typically saves thousands compared to the cost of water damage restoration. A sudden increase in your water bill could indicate a hidden leak, and leak detection before major damage occurs ensures no hidden water damage issues exist. Getting an accurate diagnosis upfront prevents expensive guesswork and unnecessary property damage from searching for leaks manually.
We can find the source quickly and non-invasively, whether it’s a slow leak under the foundation or a pipe break behind a wall. Modern leak detection uses cutting-edge tools including thermal imaging, moisture meters, and sound-based sensors to precisely locate hidden leaks.
Our expert leak detection methods and careful, considerate repairs can fix the leak and minimize the amount of damage to your home. This non-invasive approach is especially important in Forest Glen’s historic homes where preserving original features and finishes matters. Advanced technology eliminates the need for exploratory digging or wall removal in most cases, protecting your property’s integrity and value.
We are available 24/7 to respond to leak detection needs in the Chicago area, with our local office allowing prompt response to Forest Glen neighborhood concerns. Our emergency plumbing services ensure that you can get your leak found and fixed right away.
Our emergency response times typically range from 30 minutes to 2 hours depending on the time of day and weather conditions.

Leaks can happen anywhere water goes to or comes from, including simple fixes like loose fixtures or joints, as well as more difficult issues like broken pipes, sewer blockages, and corroded pipes. Our professional detection covers leak detection in walls, underfloor water leak detection, water leak detection, underground water leak detection, and comprehensive plumbing leak detection.
Plumbing leaks are often caused by malfunctioning sinks, bathtub drains, radiators, or toilets, with leaking pipes frequently located behind walls or under flooring. Slab leak detection and repair is especially important for pipes encased in concrete, requiring specialized experience with Chicago area construction methods. Forest Glen’s mix of vintage and modern homes means our technicians encounter everything from original cast iron systems to recent PEX installations.
You can check for leaks by turning off all water in your home including taps, faucets, washing machines and showers, then monitoring your water meter – if it fluctuates, you may have a leaking pipe. Moldy smells, mildew, or mold near pipes or areas with running water may indicate a leak, and increased water bills without increased usage often signify hidden leaks.
Other warning signs include water stains on walls or ceilings, unexplained wet spots on floors, and the sound of running water when all fixtures are turned off. If you cannot find an above-ground leak, there may be an underground pipe leaking. Forest Glen’s mature trees can cause root intrusion into sewer lines, while freeze-thaw cycles common in Chicago winters can crack underground pipes, making professional detection essential for accurate diagnosis.
We provide leak detection services for both residential and commercial clients, making it a valuable service for all property owners. With nearly 20 years in the plumbing industry, we can handle all residential and commercial plumbing needs, from routine maintenance to emergency services.
Our commercial leak detection covers office buildings, retail spaces, restaurants, and multi-unit residential properties throughout Forest Glen and surrounding Chicago areas. We quickly and affordably identify water leaks in plumbing systems for both homes and businesses, preventing pipe damage without water damage.
