Our Leak Detection Process
Rural properties require specialized leak detection approaches. Here's how we find leaks on Larkspur properties.
How We Find Your Leak
- 1Property Assessment
Map your water lines from well to home, identify access points, and review your system layout.
- 2Pressure Testing
Isolate sections of your plumbing to determine where pressure loss occurs and narrow down leak location.
- 3Electronic Detection
Use acoustic equipment and ground sensors to pinpoint underground leaks without extensive excavation.
- 4Targeted Repair
Excavate only where necessary to access and repair the leak, then restore your property.
Well Line Leaks Can Be Costly
A leak in your well line wastes water and causes your well pump to work harder, increasing electricity costs and pump wear. Underground leaks can also cause erosion.
If you notice your well pump cycling more frequently or water pressure has dropped, contact us for leak detection. Early repair saves money.

Types of Leaks on Rural Properties
Well Line Leaks
Underground leaks between your well and home. Often caused by freeze damage, root intrusion, or aging pipe.
Foundation Leaks
Pipes running under or through your foundation that develop leaks, causing moisture problems.
Pressure Tank Leaks
Leaks at your pressure tank, check valve, or the piping connections common in well systems.
Interior Pipe Leaks
Hidden leaks inside walls or under floors that cause water damage and mold growth.
Fixture Leaks
Faucets, toilets, and water heaters that develop slow leaks over time.
Outdoor Faucet Leaks
Hose bibs and outdoor spigots that freeze and crack during Colorado winters.
Common Leak Questions
How do I know if I have a well line leak?
Watch for your well pump running more often, decreased water pressure, unexplained wet spots in your yard, or a sudden increase in your electric bill from pump overwork.
Can you find leaks without digging up my whole yard?
Yes. We use acoustic leak detection equipment that pinpoints underground leaks by sound. We only excavate where necessary to access and repair the leak.
How deep are well lines typically buried?
In Larkspur, well lines are typically buried 4-6 feet deep to protect against freezing. This depth is below the frost line but requires proper equipment to access.
What causes well line leaks?
Common causes include freeze damage, ground shifting, tree root intrusion, corrosion in older metal pipes, and physical damage from construction or landscaping.
