System-Wide Infrastructure Inspection for Commercial & Municipal Properties

A leak survey isn’t a single-leak callout. It’s a comprehensive, non-invasive inspection of an entire water distribution network or multi-building property, designed to identify points of water loss across a system before those losses compound into serious damage or expense. We serve commercial facility managers and municipal water purveyors throughout Las Vegas who need infrastructure-wide answers, not just a patch on one visible problem. Backed by over 40 years of industry experience, American Leak Detection of Southern Nevada brings the same non-invasive discipline that made us the world leader in accurate leak detection to large-scale system surveys.

Commercial and municipal water systems throughout Las Vegas deserve the same accuracy we bring to every single-property inspection. Call (702) 291-8793 to schedule a leak survey and learn what your system may be losing.

What a Leak Survey Covers

We locate all types of leaks, including hidden water and sewer leaks, without causing damage to the property or infrastructure being inspected. Our approach covers the full system: supply lines, distribution mains, buried service laterals, and building-level plumbing where relevant. Industry-wide, leak survey work draws on technologies such as acoustic listening equipment, infrared thermal imaging, and tracer gas detection. These methods can help technicians isolate problem areas without trenching, breaking pavement, or interrupting service to tenants or end users.

Non-revenue water, meaning treated water that enters a distribution system but is lost to leaks before reaching a paying customer, is one of the most costly and least visible problems a municipal water purveyor faces. A structured leak survey helps quantify that loss and pinpoint where it’s occurring, giving operations teams information they can use to prioritize repairs.

Why Las Vegas Water Systems Can’t Afford Undetected Leaks

The Las Vegas Valley Water District supplies drinking water to more than 1.5 million residents through a network of more than 6,500 miles of transmission and distribution pipeline, drawing roughly 90% of its supply from Lake Mead. In a system this large, operating in a desert basin with a constrained source, every gallon lost to an undetected leak represents both a financial and a conservation concern. Leak surveys give Las Vegas area operators visibility so they can act before small losses grow into structural or supply problems.

Why American Leak Detection of Southern Nevada for Your Leak Survey

Our principle of Leak Detection Without Destruction™ shapes every survey we conduct. We don’t dig first and ask questions later. Our technicians locate the problem through precision equipment and analysis, then report findings clearly before any remediation work begins. As the original Leak Detection Specialists™, we’ve developed proprietary techniques refined through a rigorous training program, and we continue to research and develop new detection methods as infrastructure ages and systems grow more complex.

Our Know Before You Go approach means you receive honest, upfront pricing before work begins. No surprises, no scope creep. Our technicians arrive on schedule, complete the survey within the agreed timeframe, and leave the site clean. We’ve served the Las Vegas market since 1995 and hold an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau.

Signs Your System May Need a Leak Survey

Water loss often goes unnoticed for months in large commercial or municipal systems because no single indicator is dramatic on its own. Knowing the early warning signs helps facility managers and water system operators act before losses escalate.

Common indicators that warrant a leak survey:

Unexplained water bill increases across multiple billing cycles, with no corresponding change in usage or occupancy
Pressure irregularities, including low pressure at end points or pumps that cycle continuously without demand justifying it
Visible ground-level evidence such as wet pavement sections, sinkholes or surface settling, or isolated patches of unusually lush vegetation above buried lines

The Cost of Waiting

Leaks that go unaddressed erode soil around buried infrastructure, drive up water utility costs month over month, and can eventually cause pavement failure or structural damage to buildings above the affected lines. In Las Vegas, where water supply is finite and carefully managed, undetected loss also works against conservation goals that matter to the entire community.

Scheduling a leak survey before a problem surfaces above ground is often less disruptive and less expensive than responding after the fact. Precise leak detection helps protect property values, keep operational costs in check, and give decision-makers accurate information for capital planning.

"Gotta be the best in town!"
“From the "get-go," the office/phone person who answers the incoming calls, was, on every call I've made, no waiting with multiple ringing, the person answers right away, and with a perky, personable attitude. I've had the same plumbers on multiple occasions arrive on time or even early, with smiles on their faces. Their work habits were totally professional and with the ability to do more than just concentrating on the job at hand. I asked questions, many questions and without missing a beat, still working on the plumbing issues, were able to answer my questions. With any other plumbing issue/issues, I'll be asking for the same plumber.”
