Leak Detection Services Available Across Katy Area
Katy Area Leak Detection demand splits into two buckets: slab and foundation leaks in the older master-planned sections, and irrigation or pool leaks in newer construction. If you are searching for Leak Detection near me Katy Area TX, we cover both with the same truck and the same tools. Every service below is delivered by a licensed technician who tests the line before leaving.
Slab Leak DetectionSlab leaks are the number one call we get in Cinco Ranch and Grand Lakes. We use acoustic listening devices and thermal imaging cameras to hear and see the leak under the slab, then pressure test the line to confirm before any concrete is touched. Most jobs are located in two to four hours.View details →
Foundation Leak DetectionFoundation leaks in Katy Area often show up as foundation movement, cracks above door frames, or a warm spot on the floor. We separate plumbing leaks from soil movement using moisture meters and pressure testing gauges, so you fix the right problem. Clay soil here makes that distinction critical.View details →
Pool Leak DetectionPool leaks in Firethorne and Cross Creek Ranch usually trace to fittings, light niches, or underground return lines. We pressure test the pool plumbing and use tracer gas on hard-to-find lines. You get a clear answer on whether the pool is losing water or evaporation is doing it.View details →
Sewer Line Leak DetectionSewer line leaks in older Katy Area neighborhoods often involve root intrusion or collapsed PVC pipe. We run a pipe inspection camera through the lateral to see the break, then confirm with a hydrostatic test pump. You will know the depth and location before we dig.View details →
Gas Leak DetectionGas leaks get priority routing. We use a tracer gas detector and Sewerin equipment to find leaks at fittings, appliances, and underground lines. If you smell gas, call us and we will walk you through shutting off the meter while a truck heads your way.View details →
Plumbing Leak DetectionGeneral plumbing leaks in Katy Area homes range from pinhole leaks in copper pipe to failed fittings behind walls. We use electronic leak detectors and moisture meters to trace the source without opening every wall. Most concealed leaks are located in under three hours.View details →
Roof Leak DetectionRoof leaks in Katy Area often appear after spring storms and show up as ceiling stains far from the actual breach. We use moisture meters and thermal imaging to trace water back to the entry point. That saves you from replacing drywall twice.View details →
Irrigation System Leak DetectionIrrigation leaks are huge in Katy Area because so many yards run automatic systems. A stuck valve or broken head can waste thousands of gallons a month. We isolate zones with pressure testing gauges and locate the break without trenching the whole yard.View details →
Water Heater Leak DetectionWater heater leaks in Katy Area usually start at the tank fittings or the T&P valve. We check the pan, the supply lines, and the tank itself, then tell you whether it is a repair or a replacement. A leaking heater in an attic can damage ceilings fast.View details →
Pipe Leak DetectionPipe leaks in Katy Area cover copper, PEX, and PVC. We use acoustic listening devices and pressure testing to find the break, then confirm with a moisture meter. Pinhole leaks in copper are common in homes built in the early 2000s.View details →
Electronic Leak DetectionElectronic leak detection uses moisture meters and electronic leak detectors to find hidden water without tearing into walls. We use it heavily in Katy Area homes with tile floors and slab foundations where visual inspection tells you nothing.View details →
Thermal Imaging Leak DetectionThermal imaging cameras from FLIR let us see temperature differences that reveal a leak behind a wall or under a slab. In Katy Area, this is the fastest way to find a slab leak without pulling carpet. We pair it with acoustic confirmation.View details →
Acoustic Leak DetectionAcoustic listening devices pick up the sound of water escaping a pipe under pressure. We use them on slab leaks and underground lines across Katy Area, especially where thermal imaging cannot see through thick concrete. It is the tool that finds the leak without breaking anything.View details →
Tracer Gas Leak DetectionTracer gas is the go-to method for hard-to-find leaks in pool lines and underground plumbing. We inject a safe gas mixture and use a Sewerin detector to trace where it escapes. In Katy Area, it is especially useful for irrigation and pool return lines.View details →
Pressure Testing for LeaksPressure testing isolates a section of pipe and pressurizes it to confirm a leak. We use hydrostatic test pumps on sewer laterals and pressure testing gauges on water lines. In Katy Area, this is how we prove a slab leak before recommending any repair.View details →
Underground Leak DetectionUnderground leaks in Katy Area often involve water mains, irrigation lines, or pool plumbing. We combine acoustic listening, tracer gas, and pressure testing to find the break without digging up the whole yard. Most underground leaks are located in a single visit.View details →
Concealed Leak DetectionConcealed leaks hide behind walls, under floors, or above ceilings. We use thermal imaging cameras and moisture meters to find them without demolition. Katy Area homes with two-story layouts often hide leaks in the ceiling cavity above the first floor.View details →
Toilet Leak DetectionA running toilet can waste 200 gallons a day. We check the flapper, fill valve, and supply line, then confirm with a dye test. In Katy Area homes with high water bills, the toilet is often the culprit.View details →
Faucet Leak DetectionFaucet leaks are usually a worn cartridge or O-ring, but they can also signal a supply line issue behind the wall. We check both and fix the source. Katy Area homes with hard water see more faucet wear.View details →
Shower Leak DetectionShower leaks in Katy Area often show up as water stains on the ceiling below or loose tile. We check the pan, the valve, and the drain connection. If the leak is behind the wall, we use thermal imaging to find it without tearing out tile.View details →

Drain Leak DetectionDrain leaks in Katy Area often trace to a failed joint in PVC pipe or a cracked fitting under the slab. We run a camera and pressure test the line to find the break. You get the exact location before we open the floor.View details →
Sump Pump Leak DetectionSump pumps are less common in Katy Area, but where they exist, a failed check valve or discharge line can cause water to cycle back into the pit. We test the pump and the line to confirm the leak source.View details →
Water Main Leak DetectionWater main leaks in Katy Area show up as a constant wet spot in the yard or a spinning meter with no water running. We use acoustic listening and pressure testing to locate the break. Most mains are found without digging more than one hole.View details →

How Leak Detection in Katy Area Is Executed
Leak detection in Katy Area starts with a conversation about what you have noticed: a high water bill, a warm spot on the floor, a sound of running water when everything is off. From there we isolate the system. For slab
Expansive clay soil shifting under slab foundations
Clay soil in Katy Area swells after rain and shrinks in drought, which puts stress on copper pipe and PEX tubing under the slab. That stress produces pinhole leaks and joint failures that can go unnoticed for months.
How we help: We pressure test the entire system and use acoustic listening devices to hear the leak under the slab. Then we confirm with thermal imaging so we know exactly where to open the floor. No guesswork, no unnecessary demolition.
Irrigation systems running shallow lines in new developments
Many Katy Area homes in Firethorne and Cross Creek Ranch have irrigation lines installed at shallow depth. A shifting soil or a bad valve can cause a constant leak that shows up as a high water bill but no visible puddle.
How we help: We isolate each irrigation zone with pressure testing gauges and use tracer gas on lines that will not hold pressure. That finds the break without trenching the whole yard.
Older PVC sewer laterals in established neighborhoods
Homes built in the early 2000s in Cinco Ranch and Grand Lakes have PVC sewer laterals that are now hitting the age where root intrusion and joint separation cause backups and leaks.
How we help: We run a pipe inspection camera through the lateral to see the problem, then confirm with a hydrostatic test. You get the exact location and depth before we dig.
