Leak Detection Services Available in Sharpstown
Sharpstown leak detection calls break down into a few clear categories: slab leaks under 1960s foundations, sewer line leaks from root intrusion, water heater failures, and pool or irrigation leaks in the yards off Bayland Park. We handle all of them with the same approach: isolate the leak, confirm it with instruments, and repair it to code. If you need 24/7 Leak Detection Sharpstown same-day, call us and we will route the closest tech. The list below covers the services we run most often in 77036, 77074, and 77031.
Slab Leak DetectionSlab leaks are the most common call we get in Sharpstown because so many homes sit on 1960s slab foundations over clay soil. We use acoustic listening devices and thermal imaging cameras to hear and see the leak under the concrete before we break anything. Once we pinpoint it, we give you a repair plan that covers the line and the patch.View details →
Foundation Leak DetectionFoundation leaks in Sharpstown often show up as a crack in the slab or a warm spot on the floor near an exterior wall. We pressure-test the lines under the foundation and use a moisture meter to map where water is traveling. If the leak is under a load-bearing area, we coordinate the repair so the foundation stays stable.View details →
Pool Leak DetectionPool leaks in the Sharpstown Country Club and Westwood areas usually show up as a water bill jump or a soft spot in the deck. We use a pressure testing gauge on the pool plumbing and a dye test on the shell to separate a plumbing leak from a structural one. Most pool leaks here are in the return lines or the skimmer throat.View details →
Sewer Line Leak DetectionSewer line leaks in Sharpstown are often root intrusion in old cast-iron or clay tile lines. We run a pipe inspection camera through the line to see the break, then use a tracer gas detector to confirm where it surfaces. If the line is under a driveway or a mature tree, we plan the repair around the root mass.View details →
Gas Leak DetectionGas leaks in Sharpstown homes and commercial kitchens around PlazAmericas need a fast response. We use a combustible gas detector and a tracer gas method to find the leak at the fitting or the appliance connection. If you smell gas, call us and get out of the building first. We test the line and confirm the repair before we leave.View details →
Plumbing Leak DetectionPlumbing leaks in Sharpstown cover everything from a dripping supply line under a sink to a hidden leak behind a shower wall. We start with a pressure testing gauge on the system to see if the leak is on the supply side or the drain side, then use an electronic leak detector to narrow it down. Most residential calls here are resolved in one visit.View details →
Roof Leak DetectionRoof leaks in Sharpstown show up after the spring storms and the occasional winter freeze. We use a moisture meter and a visual inspection to find where water is entering the attic or the ceiling plane. If the leak is around a vent or a chimney, we trace it to the flashing and give you a repair scope that a roofer can follow.View details →
Irrigation System Leak DetectionIrrigation leaks in Sharpstown yards often run unnoticed because the system cycles at night. We pressure-test the zones and use a tracer gas detector on the mainline to find the break. If the leak is under a lawn or a bed, we mark the spot so the repair is a small dig, not a full re-pipe.View details →
Water Heater Leak DetectionWater heater leaks in Sharpstown are usually a failed tank or a loose fitting on the top of the unit. We check the T&P valve, the drain pan, and the supply connections, and we use a moisture meter to see if water has reached the framing. If the tank is gone, we can swap it the same day in most cases.View details →
Pipe Leak DetectionPipe leaks in Sharpstown homes are often pinhole leaks in copper pipe behind a wall or under a cabinet. We use an acoustic listening device to hear the leak through the drywall and a thermal imaging camera to see the temperature difference. That lets us open a small section instead of a whole wall.View details →
Electronic Leak DetectionElectronic leak detection is how we find hidden leaks in Sharpstown without tearing up the house. We use an electronic leak detector and a moisture meter to trace the path of water through a wall or a ceiling. This is the tool that saves the most drywall on a typical residential call.View details →
Thermal Imaging Leak DetectionThermal imaging is the fastest way to see a slab leak in a Sharpstown ranch home. We use a FLIR camera to scan the floor and the walls for temperature differences caused by water. The image shows the leak path, so we can mark the floor before we cut concrete.View details →
Acoustic Leak DetectionAcoustic leak detection is our go-to for concealed leaks in Sharpstown. We use a listening device on the wall or the floor to hear the sound of water escaping a pipe. The sound changes with pressure, so we can isolate the leak to within a few inches before we open anything.View details →
Tracer Gas Leak DetectionTracer gas is how we find leaks in lines that do not hold pressure, like a sewer line or a drained irrigation system. We introduce a safe gas mixture into the line and use a detector at the surface to find where it escapes. This works well under slabs and in yards with mature trees.View details →
Pressure Testing for LeaksPressure testing is the first step on most Sharpstown leak calls. We isolate a section of the plumbing, charge it with air or water, and watch the gauge. If the pressure drops, we know the section is leaking and we can move to the next test. It is a simple, reliable way to prove a leak exists.View details →
Underground Leak DetectionUnderground leaks in Sharpstown are often on the water main or the irrigation line between the meter and the house. We use a tracer gas detector and an acoustic listening device at the surface to find the break. If the leak is under a driveway or a sidewalk, we plan the repair to minimize the concrete work.View details →
Concealed Leak DetectionConcealed leaks in Sharpstown are the ones behind walls, under floors, or in the ceiling. We use a combination of thermal imaging and acoustic listening to find the leak without demolition. Once we locate it, we give you a repair plan that opens only what is necessary.View details →
Toilet Leak DetectionA toilet leak in Sharpstown can waste hundreds of gallons a day and you may never hear it. We use a dye test in the tank and a moisture meter around the base to find the leak. Most of the time it is a flapper or a wax ring, and we can fix it on the spot.View details →
Faucet Leak DetectionFaucet leaks in Sharpstown are usually a worn cartridge or a failed supply line. We check the connections under the sink and the valve seats, and we use a moisture meter to see if water has reached the cabinet floor. If the leak is in the wall, we trace it with an electronic leak detector.View details →
Shower Leak DetectionShower leaks in Sharpstown often show up as a stain on the ceiling below or a soft spot in the floor. We use a moisture meter and a pressure test on the shower pan to separate a drain leak from a supply line leak. If the leak is in the valve body, we open the wall from the back to keep the tile intact.View details →
Bathtub Leak DetectionBathtub leaks in Sharpstown are usually at the overflow gasket or the drain shoe. We fill the tub and watch the ceiling below, then use a moisture meter to confirm the leak path. If the leak is in the supply line behind the tub, we use an acoustic listening device to find it before we open the wall.View details →
Drain Leak DetectionDrain leaks in Sharpstown are often in the cast-iron lines under a 1960s slab. We run a pipe inspection camera through the drain to see the break, then use a tracer gas detector to find where it surfaces. If the line is under the floor, we plan the repair with a spot repair or a re-route.View details →
Sump Pump Leak DetectionSump pump leaks in Sharpstown are less common than in other parts of Houston, but they happen in low-lying lots near Bayland Park. We check the check valve and the discharge line for leaks, and we use a moisture meter to see if water is coming back into the pit. If the pump is failing, we can replace it.View details →
Water Main Leak DetectionWater main leaks in Sharpstown show up as a high water bill or a wet spot in the yard between the meter and the house. We use an acoustic listening device on the main and a pressure test to confirm the leak. If the line is under a driveway, we plan the repair to minimize the concrete removal.View details →
Fire Sprinkler Leak DetectionFire sprinkler leaks in Sharpstown commercial buildings around Sharpstown Mall need a fast response to protect the inventory. We pressure-test the system and use a moisture meter to find the leak at the head or the pipe joint. We coordinate with the building manager so the system is back in service the same day.View details →
HVAC Leak DetectionHVAC leaks in Sharpstown are usually a condensate line clog or a refrigerant leak. We use a moisture meter to find the water leak and an electronic leak detector for refrigerant. If the condensate line is clogged, we clear it and check the pan for cracks.View details →
Refrigerant Leak DetectionRefrigerant leaks in Sharpstown homes and restaurants show up as a system that will not cool. We use an electronic leak detector and a tracer gas method to find the leak at the coil or the line set. Once we find it, we give you a repair plan that covers the part and the recharge.View details →

How Leak Detection Is Executed in Sharpstown
Leak detection in Sharpstown runs on a simple sequence: listen, test, confirm, repair. We start with a pressure testing gauge on the system to see if the leak is on the supply side or the drain side. If the pressure hold
1960s slab foundations over clay soil
The clay soil under Sharpstown expands and contracts with the wet and dry cycles, and that movement stresses the copper lines in the slab. We see more slab leaks here than in newer neighborhoods, and the leak often shows up as a warm spot on the floor before it shows up as a high water bill.
How we help: We use thermal imaging cameras to scan the floor and map the leak path before we cut. That lets us open a small section of concrete instead of a whole room, and we pressure-test the line after the repair to confirm it holds.
Original copper pipe with pinhole leaks
Most Sharpstown homes still have the original copper pipe, and 60 years of Houston water has left it prone to pinhole leaks. These leaks are small and slow, so they often go unnoticed until the drywall stains or the water bill jumps.
How we help: We use an acoustic listening device to hear the leak through the wall and an electronic leak detector to confirm the spot. Once we find it, we repair the section or re-route the line, and we check the rest of the system for the same problem.
Root intrusion in old sewer lines
The mature trees in Sharpstown, especially around Bayland Park and the older streets, send roots into the clay tile and cast-iron sewer lines. The roots find the joints and open them up, which leads to backups and sewer line leaks.
How we help: We run a pipe inspection camera through the line to see the roots and the break. If the line is repairable, we clear the roots and spot-repair the section. If the line is too far gone, we give you a re-route plan that avoids the tree.

Leak Detection Pricing in Sharpstown
Typical 2026 pricing for leak detection in Sharpstown runs $180 to $450 for a standard residential call, depending on the type of leak and the tools required. A slab leak detection with thermal imaging is usually at the higher end because it takes more time and equipment. A simple toilet or faucet leak is at the lower end. If the leak is under a slab and requires a repair, the repair is quoted separately and depends on the access and the line material. We give you a flat price before we start, and we do not add charges for the diagnosis if you move forward with the repair. If you need affordable Leak Detection in Sharpstown TX, call us and we will give you a straight answer on the phone.
We offer 24/7 emergency leak detection in Sharpstown, including nights and weekends. Same-day service is usually available if you call before 3 p.m. We also schedule regular appointments Monday through Saturday. If you have an active leak that is causing damage, call us and we will prioritize the call.
01Type of leak
A slab leak or a concealed leak takes more time and tools than a visible leak under a sink. We use thermal imaging and acoustic equipment on the hidden leaks, and that is reflected in the price. A simple fixture leak is usually a quick fix.
02Access and location
A leak under a slab in a 1960s Sharpstown ranch is harder to access than a leak in an exposed basement or a crawlspace. The price reflects the time it takes to open the floor and patch it. We plan the access to keep the demolition small.
03Repair scope
If the leak is in a line that can be repaired with a spot fix, the cost is lower. If the line is corroded and needs a re-route, the cost is higher. We give you the options and the price for each before we start.

“We had a slab leak under our living room and I was worried they would have to tear up the whole floor. The tech used a thermal camera and found the leak in about 20 minutes. He cut a small section, fixed the pipe, and tested it before he left. The water bill is back to normal and you can barely see the patch.”

“Our water heater started leaking on a Sunday morning and we called Leak Detection The Heights. They had a tech at the house in under an hour. He replaced the unit the same day and checked the pan and the connections. Fair price, no upsell, and he cleaned up after himself.”

“We had a sewer smell in the backyard and another company wanted to replace the whole line. These guys ran a camera and found one broken section with roots. They fixed just that part and saved us thousands. They also showed me the camera footage so I could see what was wrong.”
