Leak Detection in Lexington, KY
A hidden leak can damage your home long before you ever see water. Elliot Services helps Kentucky homeowners and businesses find and fix leaks quickly, accurately, and with minimal disruption to your property.
SERVICE OVERVIEW
Find the source. Stop the damage. Protect your property.
Water leaks rarely announce themselves. A higher-than-usual water bill, a damp spot on the ceiling, a musty smell in a closet, the faint sound of running water with every fixture shut off. These are often the first signs that something is wrong behind your walls, under your slab, or inside your plumbing system.
Elliot Services uses proven leak detection methods to locate the source of the problem the first time, without unnecessary digging, demolition, or guesswork. Our licensed technicians arrive prepared, explain what they find in plain language, and recommend only the work your system actually needs.
As a 100% employee-owned company backed by more than 75 years of service experience, we take pride in doing the job right. That means clear communication, careful workmanship, and a commitment to leaving your home better than we found it.
Service Pricing
What Factors Affect the Cost of Leak Detection?
Location of the leak.
Leaks behind walls, under concrete slabs, or beneath landscaped areas typically require more specialized equipment and time than visible or easily accessible leaks.
Size and severity of the leak.
A small drip behind a fixture is a very different job than an active slab leak compromising the structure of your home. The scope of the problem affects both the detection process and the recommended repair.
Type of plumbing system.
Older homes, homes with mixed plumbing materials, and properties with complex layouts may require additional diagnostic time.
Access requirements.
Some leaks require minimal access, while others may involve removing a section of drywall, flooring, or landscaping to confirm the source.
Time of service.
Standard appointments and after-hours emergency calls are priced differently. When urgent issues happen, our team is ready to respond 24/7.
Service Process
Elliot’s Leak Detection Process
Step 1: Initial assessment. We start by listening. Our technician reviews the signs you’ve noticed, examines accessible plumbing, and asks questions about your water usage, recent changes in the home, and any visible damage.
Step 2: Diagnostic testing. Using a combination of acoustic listening equipment, pressure testing, thermal imaging, and other proven methods, we identify the most likely source of the leak without unnecessary demolition.
Step 3: Pinpoint location. Once we narrow down the source, we confirm the exact location so any repair work is targeted and efficient. This step protects your floors, walls, and finishes.
Step 4: Clear recommendation. We explain what we found, walk you through your options, and recommend only the repairs your system actually needs. You decide how to move forward.
