Types of Leaks We Repair

Slab Leaks

Pipes under your foundation can crack from soil movement or corrosion. We locate and repair without major excavation when possible.

Hidden Wall Leaks

Pipes inside walls can leak for months before visible damage appears. We detect moisture behind drywall before mold develops.

Water Line Leaks

Main water lines from the street can develop leaks. We repair or replace damaged sections.

Fixture Leaks

Dripping faucets, running toilets, and leaking showers waste water and money. Easy to fix, often same-day.

New Construction Leak Concerns in Sterling Ranch

Sterling Ranch is one of Colorado's fastest-growing communities, with hundreds of new homes built each year since 2017. New construction brings unique plumbing challenges that older neighborhoods don't face.

Construction Defect Leaks

Sterling Ranch homes built since 2017 can develop leaks from improper PEX connections, loose fittings, and installation errors. These defects often appear within the first 2-5 years as the home settles. Many are covered under your builder's warranty—we provide documentation to support warranty claims.

Foundation Settling

As Sterling Ranch continues developing, newly graded lots settle over time. This ground movement can stress pipe connections under slabs and at wall penetrations. Even small shifts in new construction can loosen PEX crimp fittings or push pipe joints past their tolerance.

Smart Leak Detection

Many newer Sterling Ranch homes include smart water monitoring systems. If your leak detection system alerts you to unusual water flow, call us immediately. These systems catch leaks early—before they cause damage—but professional diagnosis is needed to locate and repair the source.

Leak Detection FAQs

How do I know if I have a hidden leak?

Watch for unexplained increases in your water bill, the sound of running water when nothing's on, warm spots on floors, musty odors, or low water pressure. If your water meter continues moving when all fixtures are off, you likely have a leak.

Can new homes have leaks?

Absolutely. Sterling Ranch homes use PEX plumbing which is reliable, but improper crimp connections, loose fittings, and foundation settling can cause leaks within the first 2-5 years. Construction debris left in drain lines during building is another common issue. If your home is still under builder warranty, we provide detailed leak documentation to support your warranty claim.

Will you have to tear up my floor to fix a slab leak?

Not always. Depending on leak location and pipe condition, we may be able to reroute the pipe through walls or attic space, avoiding slab excavation entirely. We'll explain all options and recommend the least invasive solution.

How much does leak detection cost?

Leak detection costs depend on the complexity. Simple leak location is straightforward, while tracking down hidden slab or wall leaks requires more time and equipment. We provide upfront quotes and can often detect and repair in a single visit for common leaks.
