Common Questions
What's the most common plumbing leak you find in Knoxville homes, and how do you locate it?
We frequently find pipe joint leaks and laundry hose bursts in the area, often caused by our soil conditions and water pressure. For these concealed leaks, we use proprietary electronic listening equipment and ground microphones, following approved industry methodologies. This allows us to pinpoint the exact source under slabs, driveways, or behind walls without unnecessary digging, saving you time and repair costs.
Do you only find leaks, or can you handle the repair as well?
Our specialty is precise, non-invasive leak detection. Once we locate and mark the leak on the surface, we provide a detailed report. For the actual plumbing installation, replacement, or repair—including the fixes for the leaks we find—we recommend qualified local plumbers. This focused approach ensures you get the most accurate diagnosis before any repair work begins.
Can you help with my sprinkler system that's losing pressure?
Absolutely. We offer comprehensive irrigation services, including design, construction, and repair. If your system in Knoxville is losing pressure, it's often a sign of a concealed leak in the underground lines. Using our specialized equipment, we can locate the leak in your irrigation system accurately. After marking it, we can then proceed with the necessary repair or maintenance to restore your system's efficiency and prevent water waste.
