Plumbing Leak Detection

If you suspect a plumbing leak in your home, whether it is under concrete, inside a wall, above a ceiling, or beneath your yard, SoCal Repipes provides professional plumbing leak detection and complete repair solutions. We locate slab leaks, gas leaks, drain leaks, pinhole copper pipe leaks, and hidden water leaks and we fix them all.

Slab Leak Detection Under Concrete

Slab leaks occur when pressurized water lines beneath the foundation begin leaking. Signs include warm spots on floors, cracked flooring, unexplained moisture, or rising water bills.

• Electronic acoustic leak detection
• Pressure testing of hot and cold lines
• Thermal imaging when needed
• Precise pinpoint location before repair

Once located, we provide direct repair or full repiping options when necessary. Learn more about our advanced leak detection process.

Pinhole Copper Pipe Leaks

Pinhole leaks are common in aging copper plumbing systems. These small leaks can cause major damage inside walls and ceilings. You may notice staining, bubbling paint, or drywall damage.

We locate the exact failure point and repair the damaged section. If the system shows widespread corrosion, we may recommend repiping to prevent repeated failures.

Ceiling and Wall Water Leaks

Water stains on ceilings or walls often indicate a hidden supply line or drain line leak. We isolate the affected line and determine whether the leak is coming from:

• Pressurized water lines
• Drain piping
• Second floor bathroom fixtures
• Refrigerator or appliance supply lines

We open only the necessary area to minimize damage and complete proper plumbing repair.

Gas Leak Detection

If you smell gas or experience unusually high gas bills, immediate inspection is critical. Gas leaks can occur at joints, valves, underground lines, or behind appliances.

• Gas pressure testing
• Electronic gas detection equipment
• Leak isolation and line repair
• Gas line repiping when required

Visit our water and gas leak detection page for more details on safety procedures.

Drain and Sewer Leaks

Drain leaks and sewage leaks often produce foul odors, slow drainage, or wet soil around the property. Unlike pressurized water leaks, drain leaks may require camera inspection to confirm the source.

• Sewer camera inspection
• Drain line isolation
• Trenchless repair options
• Full drain repiping when needed

High Water Bills or High Gas Bills

Unexpected increases in water or gas usage usually indicate a hidden leak. We perform system pressure tests and meter checks to confirm active leakage before opening walls or floors.

Whether the leak is under concrete, inside a ceiling cavity, behind drywall, underground in your yard, or beneath the home foundation, we locate it accurately and provide a permanent solution. Our team handles:

• Slab leaks
