An unexplained spike on the water bill, a damp patch on the floor with no obvious source, or the faint sound of running water somewhere in the walls — hidden leaks are frustrating precisely because you can't see them. Our Oak Ridge technicians use acoustic and thermal equipment to find them without tearing into walls or floors on a guess.
We use listening equipment and thermal imaging to locate leaks through walls, floors, and slabs without demolition.
Locating the leak precisely keeps any necessary opening small and targeted rather than exploratory.
Every technician performing detection work carries full licensing and liability coverage.
You'll see or hear the detection results and understand exactly where the leak is before deciding on repair.
These are the hidden leak scenarios we investigate most often across Oak Ridge, NC.
This method works well for pressurized supply line leaks that create a detectable sound signature.
A leak beneath a concrete slab is pinpointed using acoustic and thermal methods before any concrete is opened.
Infrared imaging reveals temperature differences caused by escaping hot or cold water behind walls and under floors.
We locate the actual leak point, which is often not directly behind the visible water stain.
Underground irrigation and pool line leaks are diagnosed with the same precision as household leaks.
We check for common culprits — running toilets, slab leaks, irrigation issues — starting with the most likely first.
A quick call gets a detection specialist scheduled, often same-day.
A technician arrives with acoustic and thermal detection equipment ready to survey the affected area.
The leak is located and the findings explained in plain terms, along with a flat price for the necessary repair.
The identified leak is repaired, or we connect you with our repair team, and the fix is tested to confirm the leak is resolved.

"Pool was losing water and they traced it to a cracked return line, not the liner like the pool company assumed." — Oak Ridge resident
"Kept the slab opening small because they found the exact spot first. Minimal mess." — Oak Ridge customer

The equipment detects sound frequencies specific to escaping water under pressure, helping pinpoint location.
Detection pricing is quoted upfront when you call, and often applied toward the repair if you proceed with us.
In most cases, yes — detection equipment locates the leak before any cutting, so demolition is targeted and minimal.
Reduced water pressure combined with a rising bill is another common early indicator worth investigating.
Outdoor systems are diagnosed with the same precision equipment used for household leaks.
Detection and repair are separate decisions — you're never obligated to use us for the repair after detection.
