Leak Problems We Solve in Santa Ana

Santa Ana has a lot of older homes with copper and galvanized pipes that are prone to leaks. We've seen it all, from slab leaks in Floral Park to irrigation breaks in Park Santiago. Here's how we handle the most common calls.

01

High water bill with no visible leak

(Our Fix)A running meter with no obvious water usually means an underground or slab leak. We use acoustic listening and pressure testing to find it, then repair the line. Most homeowners see their bill drop the next cycle.

02

Hot spots on the floor or foundation cracks

(Our Fix)That's a classic slab leak. We locate the break under the slab with thermal imaging and acoustic tools, then repair or reroute the line. We handle the concrete work and permits.

03

Pool losing water faster than evaporation

(Our Fix)Pool leaks waste thousands of gallons. We pressure-test the plumbing, check the skimmer and return lines, and use dye testing to find the leak. We repair the line and get your pool back to normal.

04

Soggy yard or sewer smell

(Our Fix)A sewer line leak or root intrusion can cause both. We run a camera through the line, find the problem, and repair or replace the damaged section. We also check for underground irrigation leaks.

05

Pinhole leak in copper pipe

(Our Fix)Corroded copper develops pinhole leaks that spray inside walls. We find them with electronic wands and moisture meters, then repair the section. We can also replace the line with PEX if it's failing.
