Leak Detection

A hidden leak can quietly raise your water bill by hundreds of dollars before you ever see a drop of water. You might notice a damp spot on the floor, hear water running when nothing is on, or find your water meter spinning with every tap shut off. Florida’s clay-heavy soil and aging pipe systems make leaks more common here than in many other parts of the country. HL Plumbing uses non-invasive detection equipment to find exactly where the problem is before any digging or cutting starts.

This service covers leaks inside walls, under slabs, beneath concrete, in water lines running to and from the house, and in supply lines that connect to fixtures throughout the home.

  • Slab leak detection using acoustic listening equipment
  • Underground water line leak location without excavation
  • In-wall pipe leak tracing behind drywall or tile
  • Water meter line leak pinpointing from the meter to the home

If the leak turns out to be inside a fixture itself, like a dripping faucet or a running toilet, that falls under basic plumbing repair rather than leak detection.

Frequently Asked Questions

A few signs point to a real leak: your water bill jumped for no clear reason, you hear water running when nothing is on, or you notice wet spots on walls, floors, or ceilings. If you see any of these, it is worth getting it checked. Waiting to find out for sure almost always makes the repair more expensive.
We serve Apopka, Orlando, and the surrounding Central Florida area, so we can usually get to you the same day. Call us at 407-717-6035 and we will tell you exactly when to expect us. We do not leave you guessing with a vague window.
The cost depends on where the leak is and how hard it is to find. We give you a clear price before any work starts, so there are no surprises on the final bill. Finding a leak early almost always costs far less than fixing the water damage it causes later.
Even a slow leak can rot wood, grow mold, and damage your foundation in a short amount of time. Water damage repairs can run into thousands of dollars, and mold removal adds even more to that bill. The longer you wait, the worse the damage gets.
Not usually. We use detection equipment that locates leaks without tearing apart your home. If we do need to open anything up, we tell you before we do it and explain exactly why.
