American Leak Detection
American Leak Detection provides leak detection services and related repair work for water, gas, pool, spa, sewer, and other hidden leaks. We help homeowners, pool and spa owners, and residential and commercial property owners find leaks concealed behind concrete slabs, asphalt, earth, walls, and other hard-to-reach areas. Our business is a field-based service operation that uses specialized equipment to locate leaks, trace utility lines, and complete related repairs. In some markets, we also provide leak correlation services for main distribution lines serving municipalities, water districts, industrial sites, and similar customers. We also supply or lease equipment and related items used in our leak detection work.
