Our Reviews
You’re not imagining that spike in your water bill. Hidden leaks waste thousands of gallons every year and turn small problems into expensive disasters. When we find your leak, you get your peace of mind back and your water pressure restored.
No more wondering if that damp spot will become a major flood. No more watching your utility bills climb while you can’t figure out why. Our leak detection service gives you answers fast, so you can sleep soundly knowing your home is protected.
The difference between catching a leak early and dealing with structural damage is often just a phone call. We locate leaks before they become catastrophes, saving you from the headache of major repairs and the health risks that come with mold and water damage.
All Rooter Hydro Jetting Experts Inc has been solving Chicago’s toughest plumbing problems with the kind of local knowledge you can’t get from national chains. We know North Riverside’s unique challenges, from aging infrastructure in historic homes to the demands of modern commercial properties.
Our licensed and insured team doesn’t just find leaks—we understand how Chicago’s harsh winters affect your pipes and why North Riverside’s mix of old and new construction creates specific vulnerabilities. When you call us, you’re getting plumbers who’ve seen every type of leak this area can throw at them.
We’re not the guys who show up with a wrench and hope for the best. Every technician carries advanced leak detection equipment and the experience to use it right.
First, we listen. Our acoustic equipment picks up the sound of water escaping from pipes, even through concrete and drywall. These specialized microphones can detect the distinct signature of a leak from several feet away.
Next, we see what you can’t. Thermal imaging cameras reveal temperature differences that show exactly where water is traveling behind your walls or under your floors. Hot and cold spots tell the story of where your water is going when it shouldn’t be.
Finally, we confirm and locate. Using electromagnetic pipeline locators and pressure testing, we pinpoint the exact source of your leak within inches. No guesswork, no unnecessary digging, no surprise locations after we start the repair.

You get precision that saves you money. Our non-invasive detection methods mean we don’t have to tear up your floors or walls to find the problem. Thermal imaging and ultrasonic equipment locate leaks through concrete, behind tiles, and under hardwood without a single hole.
North Riverside’s aging water infrastructure means many homes deal with underground leaks that can go undetected for months. Our electromagnetic pipeline locators trace your water lines and identify problems before they surface in your yard or basement.
We also catch the problems that traditional methods miss. Slab leaks, wall leaks, and underground pipe damage all have different signatures that require different detection approaches. Our complete diagnostic process ensures we find every leak, not just the obvious ones.
We use thermal imaging cameras that detect temperature differences through drywall and other building materials. Water creates distinct heat patterns that show up clearly on our infrared equipment, allowing us to see exactly where moisture is traveling behind your walls.
Our acoustic listening devices can also pick up the sound of water moving through pipes or escaping from leaks, even when the pipes are inside walls or under floors. These specialized microphones filter out background noise and amplify the specific frequencies that water leaks create.
This combination of thermal and acoustic detection gives us pinpoint accuracy without any invasive procedures. We can mark the exact location of your leak on the wall surface, so if repairs are needed, we know exactly where to access the problem with minimal disruption to your home.
The most reliable early warning sign is an unexplained increase in your water bill. If your usage habits haven’t changed but your bill keeps climbing, there’s likely water escaping somewhere in your system.
You might also notice damp or soft spots on walls, ceilings, or floors, especially in areas near plumbing. Musty odors, visible mold growth, or the sound of running water when all faucets are off are also clear indicators of hidden leaks.
In North Riverside’s older homes, watch for foundation cracks, settling, or unexplained wet spots in your yard. These can signal underground leaks that have been going on for months. The sooner you address these signs, the less damage you’ll face and the lower your repair costs will be.
Our thermal imaging and acoustic equipment can locate leaks within inches of their actual position. We use electromagnetic pipeline locators that trace your water lines with precision, and our pressure testing confirms exactly where the system is losing water.
This isn’t guesswork or approximation. When we mark a spot on your floor or wall, that’s where the leak is. Our detection methods are so accurate that repair crews can go directly to the problem without exploratory digging or cutting.
The technology we use is the same equipment that major municipalities use for their water system maintenance. It’s designed for professional applications where accuracy is critical and mistakes are expensive. When we tell you where your leak is, you can count on that information being right.
Yes, slab leaks and underground pipe problems are actually some of our most common calls in North Riverside. Concrete doesn’t stop our detection equipment—thermal imaging shows temperature differences through slabs, and our acoustic equipment picks up leak sounds through solid surfaces.
For underground leaks, we use specialized ground microphones and electromagnetic locators that can trace your water lines several feet below the surface. We can identify exactly where your pipes run and pinpoint where they’re damaged or leaking.
North Riverside’s mix of older and newer construction means we see everything from corroded cast iron pipes to damaged modern PVC systems. Our equipment works on all pipe materials and can detect leaks regardless of how deep they’re buried or what they’re surrounded by.
Most residential leak detection takes between one to three hours, depending on the size of your property and the complexity of your plumbing system. Simple leaks in accessible areas can often be located within the first hour.
More challenging situations, like multiple leaks or problems in large commercial buildings, might take longer. We work systematically through your property, checking all potential problem areas to ensure we don’t miss anything.
The time we spend on thorough detection saves you much more time later. Finding all the leaks in one visit means you won’t have surprise problems popping up after repairs are completed. We’d rather spend an extra hour being thorough than have you deal with additional leaks down the road.
We handle leak detection for all types of properties in North Riverside, from single-family homes to large commercial buildings. Commercial properties often have more complex plumbing systems, but our equipment and experience allow us to work efficiently in any setting.
Business properties can’t afford extended downtime from plumbing problems, so our quick and accurate detection methods help minimize disruption to your operations. We understand the urgency of commercial leaks and respond accordingly.
Whether it’s a small retail space or a large office building, the detection process is similar, but we scale our approach based on the property size and complexity. Our goal is always the same: find the problem quickly and accurately so repairs can begin immediately.
