Leak detection and leak repair in Edmonds
Water travels. A stain on the ceiling is rarely right under the leak. We trace it back to where it starts, open as little as possible, and fix the cause rather than the symptom.

What sets the price
You get the price in writing, line by line, after the plumber looks and before any work starts. These are the things that move it:
- Where the leak is and how much has to be opened to reach it
- The pipe material: copper, galvanized, PEX or polybutylene
- Whether one repair will do or the line is failing in many places

Questions about leak detection and repair
Where is my main water shut-off?
Often where the water line enters the house: a garage wall, a basement, a crawlspace or a box near the street. Our emergency page walks through how to find it.
Will you have to open the wall?
Sometimes. We locate the leak first so the opening is as small as possible, and we tell you before we cut.
