Leak detection & pipe repair
San Francisco's older housing stock hides a lot of galvanized supply pipe. When it fails it rarely announces itself at the point of failure — the water travels. We locate the source first, then repair the smallest section that actually solves it.
What the visit covers
- Acoustic and moisture-meter leak location
- Targeted access rather than exploratory demolition
- Copper and PEX repair, partial or full repipe
- Post-repair pressure test
Signs you'd notice
- A water bill that climbs with no change in use
- The meter still moves with every fixture closed
- Staining, bubbling paint, or a musty smell in one room
How a job runs
Request, estimate, repair
Three steps, in that order. The estimate sits between the diagnosis and the work so nothing starts before the price is agreed.
- 1
Request service
Call, or send the details through the quote form. We ask what the symptom is, where it is, and when it started.
- 2
Receive an estimate
We diagnose the cause on site and put a written price to the work before anything is dismantled.
- 3
Complete the work
The agreed work is carried out, tested under load, and the site is left clean. The invoice matches the estimate.
