Real Customer Ratings

Our clients are our best advocates; read what they have to say!

Signs that you may have an underground or hidden water leak.

  • If you hear water running and everything in the house is turned off.
  • If your water meter is turning and everything in the house is turned off.
  • If your water bill is higher than usual.
  • If you notice your well pump running excessively.

We understand the frustration you feel when a leak is discovered to exist “somewhere” and the many questions as to what the best remedy might be. The obvious remedies are to repair the leak or replace the entire pipe. Since locating hidden leaks is what we do I can honestly tell you that every pipe will leak someday and most every leak located is due to a specific problem; i.e. a rock resting on the pipe, a tree root pressing on the pipe or a fitting that has began to fail.

Addressing Your Water Leak

We always recommend addressing the leak issue as a discovery process first. Here are a few things you may consider;

  • It’s always less expensive to have a leak located and repaired than to replace it.
  • “What if” the leak is located in an area of easy access instead of something more challenging like beneath a driveway? The small cost of a find can provide a large amount of information.
  • Keep a little piece of the pipe during the repair for future reference. If the pipe material is high quality and another leak develops in the future you can decide to locate another repair with confidence. If the pipe is of lesser quality it might be a good idea to begin a replacement savings jar for the next time it develops a leak. Having just a tiny piece of the pipe beneath your property will significantly help if future decisions are needed.
  • Consider adding an isolation valve at the repair site if you have a long water pipe and the leak is in the middle. This may allow replacing only half the pipe should it become problematic.

Keeping a piece of the pipe during the repair is highly important, especially if considering a total replacement. Since every line will leak, the real question is knowing what kind of pipe material was installed beneath your home or business property. With this sample piece of pipe in hand, you can discuss its qualities or lack thereof with anyone in the future should you have another leak. This can even be a licensed plumber on staff at your local hardware store. If the pipe is good, then maybe another rock or root issue must be resolved. If the pipe is not worth repair, you can replace it with a better justification for the added cost. We encourage you to review the information on our Pipe Facts page. Here, you will see many kinds of commonly used pipe with “good” qualities in terms of durability & service life. Did you know that there is PVC pipe today that was put into service in 1936 and still has no significant problems to this day? You may even find that galvanized pipe might be worth a repair if you are not experiencing water pressure issues. Yes, there is much to consider regarding remedy options; however, if you decide to leak, we would love to help! Our service is non-invasive and non-destructive to your property or established landscapes.
