Leak Detection in Austin, TX

Maybe it started when you noticed moisture around your home, which led you to feel mildly concerned that something was wrong. Then, you received a water bill that confirms your suspicions.

When in need of leak detection, Austin homeowners turn to ABC Home & Commercial Services to get the job done.

Our licensed specialists are able to use a variety of different tools to accurately pinpoint where the leak is on your property. After we have gathered all of the needed information from you about your situation, we will get started with our inspection. During this time, your specialist will start by checking fixtures, sinks, irrigation systems and pool systems to rule out leaks from these sources. Your ABC plumber may then check the water manifolds within your wall, isolating each water supply line to determine which one is leaking. We also have ground microphones and acoustic discs that allow us to hear through the concrete slab to help us determine if you have a slab leak.

Frequently Asked Questions

How soon can you come out?

We understand that if you suspect you have water leaking in and around your home, you want to take care of the problem promptly. Give us a call or schedule an appointment online and we will send a specialist to your home as soon as possible.

Where might I have a water leak?

You may have a number of places where water is leaking, including:

  • Toilets
  • Water supply lines
  • Faucets
  • Showers and tubs
  • Washing machines
  • Dishwashers

If you have a leak in a water supply line or in a connection that is hidden out of sight, it can be extremely difficult to identify the source of the problem without the help of a professional who can use specialized tools to troubleshoot the issue. Fortunately, the pros at ABC will be able to quickly locate and repair nearly any water leak in your home.

What is a slab leak and why do they occur?

A slab leak typically occurs when copper pipes become corroded over time. This problem usually starts as a pinhole leak which becomes bigger and bigger. Another reason a slab leak might develop is that the water in your area is particularly hard, which can corrode your pipes at a faster rate. If left unattended, a slab leak could cause the soil around your home to become saturated with water, which in turn can result in water damage, mold growth and even pest problems.

You may have a slab leak if:

  • you have seen a spike in your water bill
  • water is pooling around the foundation of your home
  • your flooring is damp
  • your sheetrock or ceiling is cracking
  • your water pressure is abnormally low
  • your windows and doors aren’t closing properly

You could even see more than some combination of these signs. Because this is a serious plumbing problem, it’s important to get in touch with a professional promptly if you suspect you have this type of leak so you can avoid further damage.

Can you also repair my leak once you find it?

Absolutely! Our plumbers can take the steps necessary to fix nearly any leak you have on your property, whether it’s a leaking toilet, sink or even a slab leak. If we do find a leak on your property, we will present you with a quote before we begin to make all needed plumbing repairs. If we determine that you have a serious slab leak and your foundation needs to be re-leveled, we will refer you to a reputable foundation repair company.

“Technician/plumber was very helpful. Offered to show me what needed to be done to save some money. I’m glad I had him do the work. My only issue with ABC and it’s probably the same with other service companies, is the 6 hour window they use to schedule an appointment.”

“Greg and Carlos were incredible. They were super polite. They were responsive and reliable. Most contractors we worked with were unresponsive and unreliable. Some were abusive and quit in the middle of the job. Greg and Carlos deserve many kudos. Thank you!!!”
