Leak Detection & Slab Leak Repair in Riverside, CA

Licensed #1146179 · Roughly 30 minutes south on the 15 and 91.
Why this comes up in Riverside
The Wood Streets and Victoria Avenue areas hold genuinely old housing with clay sewer and galvanized supply, while Orangecrest and Mission Grove are 1990s slab construction with pinhole copper leaks. On slab-built streets around Wood Streets, a pinhole under the concrete can run for months before it shows up as anything but a higher bill.
The expensive part of a hidden leak is guessing. We pinpoint it with acoustic listening, pressure isolation and thermal imaging, then fix or reroute.
Detection is quoted separately from the repair, so you know what finding it costs before you commit to fixing it.
Signs it is time to call
- Water bill jumped with no change in use
- Warm spot on a tile or vinyl floor
- Sound of running water with everything shut off
- Cracks in slab or damp baseboards
- Mildew smell in one specific room

Leak detection & slab leaks questions from Riverside customers
Do you have to jackhammer the floor?
Not always. Rerouting the line overhead or through a wall is often cheaper and less disruptive than opening the slab. We price both options.
How do you confirm the leak is really under the slab in Riverside?
We isolate the system, pressure test it, and use acoustic equipment to pinpoint the spot. You see the readings, not just a conclusion.
Will my insurance cover it?
Many policies cover the resulting water damage rather than the pipe itself. We document the findings clearly so you can file with real evidence.
