Municipal Leak Detection Services

It takes a blending of expert specialists and quality equipment to detect hidden leaks. While working on both sides of the meter, with our extensive experience and state-of-the-art equipment we have saved customers billions of gallons of water. By utilizing our methods, not only are we reclaiming water, but saving millions of dollars in costly property damage and destruction.

Our technicians can find one leak on Main Street or provide a leak survey on miles of main line pipe over several days. By providing an accurate and timely report the repairs can be scheduling conveniently. If customers have high water bills, American Leak Detection can find their service line leak and then arrange for a plumber to handle the repair, inside or outside.

  • Service Lines – leaks may occur between the meter and the house or buildings.
  • Underground Utility Locating – if there is need to locate utilities on private property before excavation we perform this service professionally to eliminate utility damage.
