Water leaks don’t always announce themselves with obvious puddles or dripping sounds. Many leaks hide behind walls, under floors, or beneath your foundation – silently wasting thousands of gallons and causing damage you won’t see until it’s severe. 5 Star Plumbing provides professional water leak detection and repair services throughout Sacramento County, using advanced technology to find and fix leaks quickly before they drain your wallet and damage your property.
✔️ Unexplained High Water Bills
✔️ Sound of Running Water
✔️ Wet or Discolored Spots
✔️ Musty Odors
✔️ Decreased Water Pressure
A small leak wastes approximately 10,000 gallons per year – enough to fill a backyard swimming pool. But water waste is just the beginning. Hidden leaks damage structural components, promote mold growth, and can compromise your home’s foundation. The longer a leak goes undetected, the more expensive the repairs become.
Professional leak detection service uses specialized equipment that pinpoints leak location without unnecessary demolition. This saves time, money, and your property from extensive damage during the search process.
Slab Leaks
A slab leak occurs when pipes running beneath your concrete foundation develop cracks or breaks. These are particularly serious because they can undermine your foundation and are difficult to access. Signs of a slab leak include warm or cold spots on floors, the sound of running water under floors, unusually high water bills, and foundation cracks.
Hidden Leaks Behind Walls
Water pipes hidden in walls can develop leaks from corrosion, freezing, or excessive pressure. These often go unnoticed until significant damage appears on wall surfaces or mold develops.
Water Heater Leaks
Your water heater can leak from the tank, pressure relief valve, or connecting pipes. Even small water heater leaks waste energy and can cause water damage if left unaddressed.
Burst Pipe Emergencies
A burst pipe requires immediate attention to prevent catastrophic water damage. We provide 24/7 emergency response to locate and repair burst pipes quickly.
Main Water Line Leaks
Leaks in the main water line feeding your home or business can waste enormous amounts of water and create soggy areas in your yard, sinkholes, or foundation issues.
Fixture Connection Leaks
Toilets, sinks, and appliances can develop leaks at connection points. While these seem minor, they cause water damage to surrounding structures over time.
