Leak detection questions we hear every day

How do you find a leak behind a wall?

We use moisture meters, pressure testing and a careful inspection of fixtures and water lines to narrow the leak down before opening anything, so the opening is as small as possible.

What should I do if a pipe bursts?

Shut off your main water valve right away. It is usually where the water line enters the house, near the water heater or in the basement. Then call us at (301) 792-8638, day or night.

Can you fix a leak the same day?

Most leaks are located and repaired the same day. Larger pipe replacements may be scheduled for the next available slot.

Will you repair the drywall too?

Our focus is the plumbing repair. We keep openings small and clean, and we can recommend a drywall contractor for finishing work.

Does homeowners insurance cover leaks?

Many policies cover sudden water damage but not gradual leaks. We document what we find with photos and notes you can share with your insurer.

How do I know if I need repiping?

Repeated leaks, rusty water and low pressure throughout the home usually mean the pipes are near the end of their life. We’ll inspect and give you an honest recommendation.
