Types of Water Leaks We Repair

We repair leaking supply lines under sinks and behind toilets, pipe leaks at joints and fittings, slab leaks under concrete foundations, underground water main leaks between the meter and the house, leaks inside walls and ceilings, outdoor hose bib and irrigation leaks, water heater connections and pressure relief valve leaks, and pinhole leaks in copper pipes. No leak is too small or too complex for our licensed plumbing team.

Slab Leak Repair in Los Angeles

Slab leaks are one of the most serious water leak problems in Los Angeles. The city has a large stock of homes built in the 1950s through 1970s with copper water lines embedded directly in the concrete slab. These pipes corrode from the outside due to soil chemistry and high water pressure, developing pinhole leaks that erode soil beneath the foundation. We locate slab leaks using electronic detection equipment and repair them through direct access, rerouting above the slab, or epoxy pipe lining depending on the pipe condition and leak location.

Hidden Leak Detection and Repair

Not all water leaks are visible. A pipe leaking inside a wall, in the ceiling, or underground may only show up as a high water bill, a damp smell, or a soft spot in the floor. We use moisture meters, thermal imaging, and electronic listening equipment to locate hidden leaks without unnecessary demolition. Once located we provide repair options and can complete the repair the same day in most cases. We also provide written documentation of the leak and repair for insurance claims.

Emergency Water Leak Response

An active water leak that is flooding, spraying, or causing visible damage is an emergency. Shut off the main water supply to your home immediately — the shutoff is typically near the water meter at the street or at the main valve where the water line enters the house. Then call 24/7 Rooter Service at (213) 281-4751. We respond to emergency water leaks throughout Los Angeles around the clock including weekends and holidays. Fast response minimizes water damage and restoration costs.

Water Leak Repair and High Water Pressure

High water pressure is one of the leading causes of water leaks in Los Angeles homes. When pressure exceeds 80 PSI it stresses pipe joints, fittings, and appliance connections constantly. If your home has recurring leaks at multiple locations, a pressure test is recommended as part of the diagnosis. Installing or replacing a pressure reducing valve (PRV) can prevent future leaks throughout the home. We check water pressure on every water leak service call at no additional charge.

Frequently Asked Questions

Question: How do I know if I have a water leak?
Answer: Signs include a water bill higher than normal, the sound of running water when all fixtures are off, wet spots on walls or floors, warm spots on floors over a slab, mold or mildew odor, and a water meter that continues moving when all water is shut off inside the house.

Question: Where is my main water shutoff in Los Angeles?
Answer: The main shutoff is usually near the water meter at the street curb in a concrete box, or at the main valve where the supply line enters the house near the foundation. If you cannot locate it, call us and we can walk you through it over the phone.

Question: Can a water leak be repaired without opening the wall?
Answer: Sometimes. For small pinhole leaks in accessible areas, epoxy pipe repair or pipe clamps can be used without wall access. For larger leaks or leaks at joints, wall access is usually required for a proper repair. We explore the least invasive option first.

Question: Does homeowner insurance cover water leak repair in Los Angeles?
Answer: Most homeowner insurance policies cover sudden and accidental water damage from pipe leaks but typically do not cover the cost of the pipe repair itself. Coverage varies — we provide documentation of the leak source and repair for your insurance claim.
