About water leak detection in Vail

Bill changes, damp spots, sounds, pressure drops, a freeze — the history tells us where to look first.
We check the property
The meter, fixtures, accessible plumbing, mechanical areas and any affected spots are checked methodically.

Findings pin the leak to a specific area — a fixture, a wall, a floor section or a stretch of buried line.
You get a clear explanation
We explain what we found and your repair options before any work begins.
The Vail factor
In a mountain town, a slow leak in a heated home can hide for a long time — and a small leak in a cold, unoccupied space can freeze and crack a line. Either way, the meter check is the fastest first test.
Frequently asked questions
How do I check for a leak myself?
Turn off every fixture and appliance — including ice makers — then watch your water meter's leak indicator or dial. If it's still moving, water is leaking somewhere.
Should I shut off my water if I suspect a leak?
If the leak is active, shut off the main valve and call us. For slow, hidden leaks, start with the meter check.
