What you get

How Slab Leak Detection in Lemon Grove, CA Is Done

Here is exactly what you pay for when you book slab leak detection in Lemon Grove, CA. Each step narrows the search until the leak is marked on your floor.

  1. 01

    Meter and leak-dial check

    Every fixture off, then the meter dial is watched. Movement with the house silent means water is going somewhere it shouldn't.

  2. 02

    15-minute pressure-gauge test

  3. 03

    Hot or cold isolation

  4. 04

    Branch isolation

    Lines are separated and tested one at a time, so the search is limited to the pipe that is actually losing water.

  5. 05

    Acoustic pinpointing

  6. 06

    Thermal imaging

    On hot lines, a thermal camera shows the heat bloom where water is spreading under the slab.

  7. 07

    Marked location and options
