Plumbing Services
Water leaks are not always obvious—but even a slow or hidden leak can cause extensive damage if it goes undetected. Leaks inside walls, beneath concrete slabs, under flooring, or in underground water lines can lead to mold growth, structural deterioration, and unexpectedly high water bills. Professional water leak detection is critical to identifying the source of the problem before major damage occurs. At Drain Solutions Plumbing Co, we specialize in precise leak detection and long-term repair solutions. Our licensed plumbers use advanced diagnostic tools to locate leaks with minimal disruption to your property. This allows us to accurately identify the source of the leak without unnecessary demolition—saving you time, money, and stress. Once the leak is located, we clearly explain what’s happening, where the problem exists, and what repair options are available. Whether the issue involves aging pipes,slab leaks, faulty fittings, or underground water lines, our team is equipped to complete repairs safely and efficiently. We provide water leak detection and repair services throughout the San Fernando Valley, Simi Valley, Santa Clarita, Granada Hills, La Cañada, and surrounding communities. Our goal is to stop the leak at its source and help prevent future plumbing failures.
What are the signs of a hidden water leak?
Hidden water leaks often show subtle warning signs before visible damage occurs. Common indicators include unusually high water bills, the sound of running water when no fixtures are in use, damp or warm spots on floors, musty odors, visible mold, peeling paint, or water stains on walls or ceilings. If you notice any of these issues, professional water leak detection can help locate the source before major damage occurs.
How does professional leak detection work?
Professional leak detection uses specialized diagnostic equipment such as acoustic listening devices, pressure testing, and thermal imaging to locate leaks inside walls, beneath concrete slabs, or underground. These methods allow plumbers to accurately identify issues that may require slab leak repair or other plumbing repairs, without unnecessary damage to your home.
Can a water leak cause structural damage?
Yes. Over time, untreated water leaks can weaken foundations, rot framing, damage drywall, and create conditions for mold growth. Early leak detection and repair helps reduce long-term damage and can prevent the need for costly structural plumbing repairs.
Do you repair the leak after detection?
Yes. Once the leak is identified, our plumbers can perform the necessary
Plumbing leaks can develop for several reasons, and the cause is not always immediately visible. Some leaks originate from aging or damaged pipes, while others are related to fixtures, appliances, or issues with water pressure inside the home. Identifying the underlying cause is essential for effective water leak detection and long-term repair.
Common causes of plumbing leaks include:
It can be difficult to determine whether you have a leak in your plumbing system, especially when the leak is hidden. Many plumbing leaks develop slowly and may not produce visible damage right away. However, recognizing early warning signs can help prevent costly repairs and long-term water damage.
Leaks may occur behind walls, beneath flooring, or under concrete slabs, making professional water leak detection essential for locating the source before the problem worsens.
If you notice any of these signs, early detection can help reduce damage and avoid more extensive plumbing repairs.
Identifying leaks early also helps protect your home’s structure and plumbing system from long-term failure.
