Infrared, Irrigation, Emergency & Crack Injection Services for West Texas Properties

Not every leak fits neatly into a single category. Beyond our core plumbing and pool leak detection work, American Leak Detection of West Texas offers four additional services built on the same non-invasive principle: infrared leak detection, irrigation leak detection, emergency leak detection services, and crack injection. Each one uses our proprietary methods to find and address the problem without tearing into your property.

As The Original Leak Specialist™, we’ve spent over 40 years developing detection techniques that protect what you’ve built. “Leak Detection Without Destruction™” isn’t just a phrase. It describes how each of these services is performed.

What You Can Expect from Every Visit

Our technicians arrive on time, work within the agreed timeframe, and leave the space clean when the job is done. That’s the standard for every call, whether it’s a scheduled irrigation inspection or an emergency water leak. We treat your property with care throughout the process.

Rigorous training is built into how we operate. Our technicians are among the most skilled leak detection professionals in the industry, trained on both the technology and the building science behind it. We also continuously research and develop new methods so our capabilities keep pace with the problems our customers face.

West Texas Conditions That Drive These Services

Midland and the surrounding West Texas region create specific challenges for property owners. The soil here is in constant motion, expanding when heavy rain arrives and contracting during dry, hot stretches. That cycle stresses underground pipes, pushes against foundations, and can crack older cast iron and clay lines over time. Properties in Andrews and across our service area face the same soil and climate pressures.

Infrared scanning, irrigation diagnostics, emergency response, and crack injection are direct answers to what West Texas soil and weather do to structures and systems. We built these services into our Midland offering because local conditions call for them.

Get Answers Before Any Work Begins

Our “Know Before You Go” approach means we diagnose the issue first, walk you through what we found, and present honest, upfront pricing before any repair work starts. No surprises on the invoice.

Infrared Leak Detection

Infrared leak detection uses thermal imaging cameras to read the temperature differences water leaves behind as it moves through walls, ceilings, and floors. Because wet materials hold heat differently than dry ones, the camera helps show where moisture is present without any cutting or drilling required.

Our technicians are trained in both infrared imaging and building science, so they can interpret what the thermal data means before presenting findings to you. Beyond plumbing leaks, infrared scanning can also identify insulation gaps and damp conditions that may attract pests, giving you a fuller picture of what’s happening inside the structure.

Irrigation Leak Detection in Midland

Irrigation systems face conditions indoor plumbing doesn’t. Exposure to wind, lawn equipment, and ground movement makes breaks and leaks common, and the damage often shows up before the cause is obvious.

Common signs of an irrigation leak include:

Dry or dying patches of lawn that don’t respond to regular watering cycles
A rise in water bills without any change in household usage
Persistently wet or soggy yard areas even when it hasn’t rained
Physical damage such as burst pipes, broken valves, or dripping control valves

We carefully diagnose the irrigation issue before recommending any repair, so the fix addresses the actual source rather than the symptom.

Emergency Leak Detection Services

Some leaks can’t wait for a standard appointment. If water is actively flowing where it shouldn’t be, or if you can see damage spreading across flooring, walls, or ceilings, that’s an emergency. Water can move through drywall and subfloor materials quickly in the first 24 hours, and damp conditions can support mold growth within 48 to 72 hours.

We offer same-day scheduling for emergency calls when appointments are available in the area. Our response uses proprietary detection equipment for a fully non-invasive assessment with no unnecessary digging or demolition. You receive a complete report of what we found before any repair work begins.

While you wait for our technician, these steps help limit further damage:

Shut off the main water supply if you can locate the shutoff
Document the visible damage with photos
Leave the affected area undisturbed
Note when you first observed the problem

Crack Injection for Pools & Foundations

Cracks in pool shells and foundations often start as hairline fractures in concrete, gunite, or shotcrete. Ground movement, temperature swings, and hydrostatic pressure (the force exerted by groundwater pressing against a structure from outside) can cause those fractures to widen over time. Crack injection addresses them before they worsen.

The process begins with non-invasive detection to confirm the crack’s source and extent. Then, a polymer is injected directly into the crack, expanding to fill and seal it from within.

Pool Crack Injection
The polymer can provide structural reinforcement as it expands to backfill the crack completely. The surrounding deck stays intact throughout the repair.

Foundation & Wall Crack Injection
A flexible polymer resin fills the crack and is designed to resist re-cracking after it cures. Most repairs are completed in a single service visit.
