Don't Ignore the Signs
Warning Signs You Need Leak Detection & Repair
Don’t wait until a small problem becomes a big one. Watch for these signs in your St. George home.
Unexplained High Water Bills
A sudden spike in your water bill without a change in usage is one of the most reliable indicators of a hidden leak somewhere in your plumbing system.
Damp Spots on Walls or Floors
Wet patches, discoloration, or bubbling paint on walls, ceilings, or floors often mean a pipe is leaking behind the surface.
Sound of Running Water
If you hear water running when every fixture is turned off, there’s likely a leak in a pipe inside the wall, under the slab, or in the yard.
Mold or Mildew Growth
Unexplained mold or a musty smell—especially in areas that shouldn’t be damp—signals persistent moisture from a hidden leak.
Low Water Pressure
A noticeable drop in water pressure across your home can mean water is escaping the system before it reaches your fixtures.
Warm Spots on the Floor
Hot spots on your concrete or tile floor are a telltale sign of a hot water slab leak running beneath the foundation.
St. George Leak Detection Experts
Leaks aren’t always easy to spot, but ignoring them can lead to major issues. Signs you may need our services include:
Our technicians use acoustic listening devices, thermal imaging cameras, and pressure testing to find leaks hidden behind walls, under concrete slabs, and in underground water lines. These non-invasive methods let us locate the problem accurately without tearing up your home to find it.
- Unusually high water bills
- Wet or damp spots on walls or floors
- Low water pressure or running water sounds
- Mold or mildew growth
Professional Leak Repairs
Once we locate the leak, we provide fast and reliable water leak repair tailored to the issue. From minor repairs to larger fixes, we ensure your plumbing system is restored to optimal condition. With our emergency leak repair services, you don’t have to wait—call us anytime for immediate help.
The type of repair depends on where the leak is and how severe it’s become. For slab leaks, we can often reroute the line through the attic or walls rather than jackhammering through your foundation—a faster, less invasive approach that many St. George homeowners prefer. For pipe leaks in walls or ceilings, we make a targeted access point, fix the pipe, and patch the area so the repair is clean and minimal.

Slab Leak Detection in St. George
Slab leaks are one of the most common—and most damaging—plumbing issues in Southern Utah homes. The shifting desert soil and extreme temperature changes put stress on the copper and CPVC pipes running beneath your concrete foundation. Over time, these pipes can develop pinhole leaks or cracks that slowly saturate the soil and foundation beneath your home.
Signs of a slab leak include warm spots on the floor, the sound of running water when everything is turned off, cracks in the foundation, or a water meter that keeps spinning when no fixtures are in use. If you notice any of these, call us right away. Early detection and repair can save you thousands in structural damage and water waste.

FAQ
Common Questions About Leak Detection & Repair
Everything you need to know about leak detection & repair in St. George.
What are the signs of a water leak in my home?
Unexplained spikes in your water bill, damp or discolored spots on walls, ceilings, or floors, musty odors or mold growth, the sound of running water when no fixtures are in use, and reduced water pressure.
What areas are most prone to water leaks?
Bathrooms (toilets, sinks, showers), kitchens (dishwashers, faucets, refrigerators), water heaters and washing machines, underground pipes or slab foundations, and outdoor irrigation systems.
How much does leak detection cost in St. George?
Leak detection typically ranges from $150 to $450 depending on the complexity and location. Slab leak detection can be on the higher end due to the specialized equipment involved. We provide a clear price before we begin any work.
Can you find a leak without tearing up my walls or floor?
Yes. We use electronic acoustic sensors, thermal imaging, and pressure testing to locate leaks non-invasively. In most cases, we can pinpoint the exact location without any demolition, then make a small targeted access point for the repair.
What is a slab leak and how do I know if I have one?
A slab leak is a leak in the water pipes running beneath your concrete foundation. Signs include warm spots on the floor, the sound of running water with fixtures off, cracks in the foundation, or a continuously spinning water meter. Slab leaks are common in St. George due to our shifting desert soil and hard water.
How long does a leak detection visit take?
Most leak detection visits take 1–2 hours. The time depends on how accessible the plumbing is and whether the leak is in the walls, under the slab, or in an underground line. We’ll give you a time estimate when we schedule your appointment.
Should I turn off the water if I suspect a leak?
If you see active water damage or flooding, yes—shut off the main water supply right away. For smaller suspected leaks (like a high water bill with no visible water), you can leave the water on but call us as soon as possible. The longer a leak goes unaddressed, the more damage and wasted water it causes.
Does homeowner’s insurance cover leak repairs?
Most policies cover sudden and accidental water damage but not leaks caused by deferred maintenance or gradual deterioration. Slab leak repairs and the resulting water damage are often partially covered. We recommend checking with your insurance provider and can provide the documentation they need.
