The Basics – What is it?
WHAT IS PROFESSIONAL LEAK DETECTION?
The smart way to find hidden water leaks — before they destroy your floors, walls, or foundation.
FIND THE LEAK. SAVE THE WALL.
Professional leak detection is the process of pinpointing the exact location of a hidden water leak inside a pressurized plumbing system — without unnecessary demolition. Using a combination of electronic listening devices, acoustic amplifiers, thermal imaging, pressure testing, and tracer-gas detection, our technicians can isolate a leak to within a few inches behind walls, under slabs, or beneath landscaping. Rooter King Plumbing is one of Southern California’s most-trusted names in non-invasive water leak detection and repair.
Hidden leaks are sneaky. A slab leak the size of a pinhole can leak thousands of gallons per month, drive your water bill through the roof, rot wood subfloors, grow mold inside walls, and even compromise your foundation — long before a single drop of water shows up where you can see it.
Most homeowners discover a hidden leak when their water bill suddenly doubles, when they hear running water with everything shut off, or when warm/damp spots appear on the floor. That’s when leak detection earns every penny — because guessing means cutting open walls and slabs until you find it. We use the equipment so you don’t have to guess.
Then we repair it. Same day in most cases. And because we offer the detection service FREE when we perform the repair, the $99 charge becomes a 100% credit against the work — you only pay for the fix.
Our Process · Step by Step
HOW LEAK DETECTION WORKS.
From the first phone call to a repaired pipe — here’s exactly what to expect.INSPECT & ISOLATE
01We shut off fixtures and isolate the line. A pressure gauge confirms a leak exists and tells us roughly where to look — hot, cold, irrigation, or sewer.
PINPOINT ELECTRONICALLY
02Electronic listening devices, acoustic amplifiers, and thermal cameras locate the leak to within inches — through tile, concrete, drywall, or dirt.
WRITTEN
DIAGNOSIS
03You receive a written report with the leak location, cause, photos, and a flat-rate repair quote. No surprises. No upsells. No pressure.
SAME-DAY REPAIR
04Approve the quote and we fix it — usually the same visit. The $99 detection fee becomes a 100% credit toward the repair.

TESTIMONIAL OF THE MONTH
“I had a $480 water bill and no idea where the leak was. Rooter King found it in less than an hour — under the slab in the hallway. They fixed it that same afternoon and the detection fee came right off the repair invoice. Best plumber I’ve used in 20 years of owning this house.”

Frequently Asked Questions
How do you find a hidden water leak?
We use acoustic listening equipment, thermal imaging, and pressure testing to pinpoint leaks behind walls, under slabs, and underground without unnecessary digging.
What are the signs of a slab leak?
A spike in your water bill, warm spots on the floor, the sound of running water with everything off, or cracks in flooring can all point to a slab leak.
Can you fix the leak once you find it?
Yes. We locate and repair the leak, whether it is a pinhole in a copper line, a slab leak, or an underground service line.
How accurate is your leak location?
Our electronic equipment usually locates leaks within inches, so the repair is targeted instead of opening a whole wall or floor.
