Professional Leak Detection

A hidden water leak is one of the most damaging plumbing problems a homeowner can face. Unlike a burst pipe, which announces itself immediately, a slow leak behind a wall or under a concrete slab can go undetected for months — silently causing structural damage, mould growth, and dramatically higher water bills.

Precision Plumbing Solutions uses professional leak detection equipment — including electronic acoustic sensors, thermal imaging cameras, and pressure testing — to locate leaks precisely before any demolition begins. Our goal is to find the leak with the minimum possible disruption to your home.

Our Process

Our Leak Detection Process

1

Initial Assessment

We review your water bill history, inspect visible signs of moisture (staining, efflorescence, warm spots on floors), and conduct a pressure test on your supply lines to confirm a leak is present and estimate its general location.

2

Electronic Acoustic Detection

We use electronic listening devices that amplify the sound of water escaping under pressure. This allows us to pinpoint a leak's location within inches, even through concrete slabs and multiple layers of wall material.

3

Thermal Imaging (Where Applicable)

For in-wall leaks, a thermal imaging camera detects temperature differences caused by moisture — allowing us to see exactly where water is accumulating without opening any walls.

4

Pinpoint Location & Report

We mark the exact location of the leak and provide you with a written report including the location, likely cause, and recommended repair options. You have full information before we start any repair work.

5

Repair & Verify

We repair the leak using the least invasive method possible. After the repair, we re-test the line to confirm the leak is fully resolved and check for any secondary leaks in the same system.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I have a slab leak?

The most common signs of a slab leak in OKC homes are: a water bill that has increased significantly with no change in usage, warm or damp spots on your floor (particularly on a concrete slab foundation), the sound of running water when all fixtures are off, or cracks appearing in your foundation or interior walls. If you notice any of these signs, call us promptly — slab leaks worsen quickly and can cause significant structural damage.

How much does leak detection cost in Oklahoma City?

Professional leak detection in the OKC area typically

Can you detect a leak without tearing up my floor or walls?

In most cases, yes. Our electronic acoustic equipment and thermal imaging cameras allow us to locate leaks precisely without opening walls or cutting into slabs. When a repair does require access, we know exactly where to cut — minimising the opening to the smallest possible area.

What causes slab leaks in Oklahoma City homes?

Oklahoma's clay-heavy soil expands and contracts significantly with moisture changes, which puts stress on underground pipes. The most common causes of slab leaks in OKC are pipe corrosion in older copper lines, ground movement from soil expansion, and high water pressure that stresses pipe joints over time. Homes built before 1990 with original copper plumbing are at higher risk.
