Leak Detection in Brighton, MI
Non-Invasive Leak Detection for Residential, Commercial & Municipal Properties
When a hidden leak threatens your home or business, guesswork isn’t an option. American Leak Detection of Southeast Michigan brings over 40 years of dedicated leak detection experience to Brighton, MI and the surrounding Livingston County area, locating leaks precisely without tearing apart your property. Our operating principle, Leak Detection Without Destruction™, isn’t a tagline. It’s the standard our technicians are trained to meet.
As the original Leak Detection Specialists™, we’ve developed proprietary methods and state-of-the-art equipment that many plumbers simply don’t carry. That approach can make a measurable difference when a leak is hiding under a slab, behind a finished wall, or beneath a pool deck.
If you suspect a leak at your Brighton-area property, don’t wait for the water bill to confirm it. Call American Leak Detection of Southeast Michigan at (734) 977-1005 to schedule a service visit.
Leak Detection Services Available in Brighton
Our services cover the full range of leak problems that residential, commercial, and municipal property owners face in the Brighton area.
Residential Services
We locate hidden plumbing leaks, slab leaks, underground line leaks, and water loss in aquatic systems. Our residential categories include plumbing leak detection, Pools, Spas & Fountains leak detection, and Cause & Origin / “Mystery Leaks” for unexplained water intrusion or loss that hasn’t been traced to an obvious source.
Commercial Services
Commercial properties carry higher water consumption, which means an undetected leak compounds costs quickly. We offer the same core categories for commercial clients, plumbing leak detection, Pools, Spas & Fountains, and Cause & Origin / “Mystery Leaks”, scaled to the demands of commercial systems.
Municipal Services
We work with municipal clients on water distribution system leak detection, helping communities identify infrastructure leaks before they escalate into service disruptions or costly repairs.
Smart Water Monitoring
For property owners who want continuous visibility into their water systems, we offer Smart Water Monitoring through StreamLabs. This technology provides ongoing leak detection between scheduled service visits, giving you an early-warning layer that runs around the clock.
Why Brighton Property Owners Choose American Leak Detection of Southeast Michigan
Dedicated leak detection work is the core difference. Because leak detection is all we do, our technicians develop a depth of diagnostic skill that a general plumber offering detection as a secondary service can’t replicate. Every technician goes through a rigorous training program and uses proprietary detection techniques developed and refined over four decades, arriving equipped with the right tools for the job.
We also handle the parts of the experience that matter beyond the technical work. Our Know Before You Go approach means you receive honest, upfront pricing before any work begins, with no surprises on the invoice. Technicians arrive on schedule, complete work within the agreed timeframe, and leave your property clean. That respect for your home or business is built into how we operate.
Non-invasive detection can help protect your property’s value, too. Traditional methods often involve breaking open walls, cutting slabs, or excavating landscaping just to locate a leak. Our methods pinpoint the source first, so any repair work that follows is targeted rather than exploratory. Your property can stay intact through the diagnostic phase.
Serving Brighton, MI & Livingston County
Brighton sits in Livingston County along the US-23 and I-96 corridors in southeast Michigan, part of a growing residential and commercial area where protecting property against water loss is a practical priority. The region’s continental climate brings cold winters, moderate to heavy snowfall, and spring thaw cycles that put real stress on plumbing systems year after year. That cumulative freeze-thaw stress is one of the most common drivers of hidden leaks in the area.
Slab leaks, underground water line failures, and pool and spa water loss are all conditions we see regularly on Livingston County properties. If your water bill has climbed without explanation, you’ve noticed warm spots on the floor, or your pool is losing water faster than evaporation accounts for, those are signals worth investigating. We serve Brighton-area property owners across all of these scenarios.

“Just wanted to leave a review about the company. They came out quickly, assessed the leak problem, and promptly made an appointment to come back and fix the leak. Ian was professional and courteous and showed me the problem and what was replaced. The office staff was very friendly and courteous. Because there was not cement removal and replacement needed which was originally considered in the estimate, they reduced the price accordingly. I highly recommend this company.”- Victoria Grant

“Amazing. Incredible. Professional. Prompt. Any adjective to describe perfection can be further inserted. To say I am impressed is an understatement. I called ALD at 9am due to what I thought would be a broken underground pool line. Trish took the call and immediately got us scheduled. She was efficient and pleasant on the phone and covered all bases. She got us into an afternoon appointment which we greatly appreciated. Steven arrived to our home around 3pm and went right to work. Within 30 minutes he found the issue. To my extreme surprise and delight, it was not a broken line under the ground. Instead, an o-ring had gone bad. He located it, fixed it and tested the entire system for any further issues. Finding none, I celebrated not having to dig up an area of my yard once again. Steven is a complete professional with an awesome personality to match. He handled everything with such a level of care. He and Trish both deserve raises :) Thank you so much again to Trish, Steven and the rest of the team at American Leak Detection. You made a stressful situation simply disappear.”- Derek Mackie

“My pool was down for seven years. We were able to get it completely resurfaced and up and running this year. After being down for so long, I knew there could be leaks in my lines. I was referred by Jim Garris Construction, who did the work on my pool, to call American Leak Detection because they are the best. Shawn was the technician that came to my house and was completely professional and very through. He spent the necessary time, not rushing at all, to give the complete detailed results of his inspection. He took time to show me everything he did, why he did it and made sure I had a clear picture of what was needed. I highly recommend American Leak Detection and you should ask for Shawn.”- R. R.
