Meter and pressure tests
Turn off every fixture in the house and a meter dial that still moves says water is going somewhere. A pressure test on the lines then shows which run is losing it.
Leak Detection and Slab Leak Repair in Rowlett
A ceiling stain that keeps spreading, a water bill that climbs while nothing has changed or a wet strip across the lawn can each mean a leak out of sight. Call us, describe what you see, and the plumber you reach provides a free estimate for finding and fixing it.
Tests to locate the leak come first, then which side of the meter it is on, and the repair is planned once the spot is known.
Finding the leak
Leaks inside walls and ceilings
A water stain spreading on the living room ceiling under a second-floor tub points upward to the tub drain or a supply line. The source is traced before any drywall is cut.
Slab leaks
Supply lines buried in or under a concrete slab leak out of sight. Acoustic equipment pinpoints the spot, so the slab is broken open in one place and not several.
Yard line leaks
Soft, soggy or unusually green grass along the path from the meter to the house can mean a buried line is leaking. Finding the exact spot first keeps the digging small.
Which side of the meter
Rowlett’s service line material map shows two parts of the line. The public-side service line extends from the water main to the water meter, and the private-side service line runs from the water meter to your home.
The city’s lead and copper inventory covers City-owned and customer-owned lines, so the map is where to see which side a yard leak is on before the repair is planned.
Standing water on the floor calls for the emergency page. A supply line that springs leak after leak is a repiping matter. The leak page here is about locating the source, and the homepage lists the services that deal with the repair.
