Over 40 Years of Non-Invasive Leak Detection Before Targeted Repairs

We provide plumbing leak repair for Shelton properties by locating the hidden source before repairs begin. Backed by more than 40 years of industry experience, we evaluate concealed water and sewer line leaks without relying on exploratory demolition.

A ceiling stain, damp floor, unexplained increase in water use, low water pressure, or pooled water can signal a hidden leak. Because the visible damage doesn’t always reveal where the problem began, the source may be inside a wall, beneath a slab, above a ceiling, or in a buried outdoor pipe.

Call (203) 583-4092 to schedule an assessment and get clear information about the leak’s location and your repair options.

Leak Detection & Repair for Shelton Properties

We serve single-family homes, commercial buildings, and municipal facilities throughout Fairfield County. Our technicians select equipment based on the pipe system, building construction, symptoms, and access conditions. Depending on the situation, we may use acoustic leak detection, thermal imaging, or tracer gas testing.

Our proprietary techniques support our Leak Detection Without Destruction™ approach, which focuses on finding the source while limiting unnecessary disruption to surrounding surfaces.

Hidden Leak Locations & Pipe Materials We Address

The appropriate repair depends on the leak’s location, severity, accessibility, and pipe material. We locate concealed plumbing leaks and perform repairs on copper, PEX, PVC, and galvanized piping.

Our leak detection and repair capabilities include:

Leaks inside walls: Concealed supply-line, joint, valve, or fixture-related leaks.
Leaks beneath floors or slabs: Hidden piping problems that require accurate location before surface access is considered.
Leaks in ceilings: Water sources that may be separate from the stain or damp area below.
Buried outdoor pipe leaks: Underground water or sewer line leaks that aren’t visible at the surface.

What to Expect During Plumbing Leak Service

We move from investigation to informed repair decisions, explaining our findings and the available options before work proceeds.

What you can expect:

Initial consultation: We review the symptoms and available information about the affected plumbing.
On-site evaluation: We examine the relevant areas and select detection methods suited to the conditions.
Source confirmation: We identify the suspected leak location and determine the appropriate repair scope.
Pricing and options: Our Know Before You Go approach provides pricing information and repair options before work begins.
Repair and final testing: We complete the approved work and test the repaired area afterward.
Cleanup: We work within the agreed timeframe and leave the premises clean.

How Non-Invasive Leak Detection Works

No single detection method fits every plumbing system. We choose equipment based on the suspected leak, pipe material, property construction, and available access.

Detection methods may include:

Acoustic leak detection: Sensitive equipment listens for sounds associated with pressurized water escaping from a pipe.
Thermal imaging: Infrared equipment identifies temperature differences that may indicate moisture or water movement behind a surface.
Tracer gas testing: A detectable gas introduced into an appropriate pipe system can help locate concealed leaks when other methods aren’t sufficient.

These methods can narrow the suspected location of slab leaks, hidden water leaks, and sewer line leaks before repair decisions are made. The findings also help determine whether repair or further evaluation is appropriate.

What Should You Note Before an On-Site Leak Assessment?

You don’t need to find the source before scheduling service. Note when the symptoms began, where stains or damp areas appear, whether water pressure has changed, and whether water use has increased without an obvious cause.

Information about prior plumbing work, accessible shutoff points, and the affected fixture or pipe area may also assist the evaluation. For a leak beneath a slab, inside a wall, or underground, we work to narrow the source without opening the entire surrounding area.
