Straight answers to the questions Buckeye homeowners ask most about hidden leaks, slab leaks, pools and high water bills.
Leak detection is the process of finding the exact location of a hidden water leak, such as one under a slab, inside a wall, in a buried yard line or in a pool, using acoustic, thermal and pressure testing equipment.
Turn off all water inside and outside. Look at the leak indicator on the meter, a small dial or triangle. If it is moving, water is flowing. If there is no indicator, record the reading, wait 30 minutes without using water and read it again.
A warm spot on the floor, an unexplained rise in the water bill, the sound of running water, a water heater that runs constantly, damp flooring and new cracks in floors or walls.
No. The leak is located from the surface. Concrete is opened only if you choose a spot repair, and only at the marked location.
Many residential leaks are located in one to three hours. Larger properties and multiple leaks take longer.

Same-day appointments are often available. Active leaks receive priority scheduling.
Run a bucket test. Set a bucket of pool water on a step, mark both water levels and compare them after 24 hours. If the pool drops more than the bucket, it is likely leaking.
The most common causes are a running toilet, an irrigation leak, a service line leak or a slab leak. A meter test tells you whether water is flowing when it should not be.
In general, the property owner is responsible for everything on the house side of the water meter. Leaks on the street side should be reported to the water utility.
It depends on the policy. Many policies cover sudden water damage and the cost to access the pipe, but not the pipe repair or long-term leaks. Ask your agent.
