    Phil at Quest Leak Detection went above and beyond to help a dire plumbing slab leak. We had been through two plumbers and paid for another leak detection service that was incorrect on their findings. Phil was thorough and took his time to find the leak and helped us tremendously. When the insurance would not help us or cover any costs, Phil sent us to contactors and business vendors that would help. We had no running water for over 90 days with no financing to help pay for the needed re-piping. We are highly satisfied that Phil is trustworthy and led us down a path to honest and trustworthy help. Phil is a stand-up businessman.

    I used Quest for their leak detection services when we had a slab leak and they helped us successfully get a claim with Statefarm. We subsequently used them to "repipe" our entire house, and their quote was competitive and under warranty.

    Not only was their performance exceptional (timing, professionalism, explanations, etc) their follow-through was even more reliable. After their job was done they referred me to a drywall company that was phenomenal. Subsequently, weeks later we thought we had a faulty sprinkler system due to the repiping and they came and helped troubleshoot and did not charge for the visit even though the issue was NOT caused by their fault.

    Dan and Philip are phenomenal humans and run a fantastic company, and I would use them again and strongly recommend them to family and friends.

    We saw water coming up through our bathroom floor in two places and suspected we had a slab leak. We immediately called a local plumbing company who confirmed that for us. In fact, it was the owner of the company who came out to confirm it. We called Philip to come out and find the leak, and he immediately discovered that it was not a slab leak! It was actually the toilet that was leaking. He replaced our toilet for us, and the problem was solved. So thankful for Philip and his expertise. He is punctual, professional, honest, courteous, and most importantly he knows what he is doing!! Thank you, Philip! We will always recommend him to friends and family and call him anytime we have an issue.

Once the leak has been located, the next course of action will be to get that leak repaired! There are a few different ways to repair a leak. The most common two repair methods are to provide a direct access repair, and the other being to bypass that leaky pipe and reroute a new one overhead. Our leak detection services will provide you with multiple repair options to see what best fits your needs. No matter the repair you choose, we can make it happen for you! Find out more why you should choose Quest Leak Detection.

This field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged.

Direct Access Repairs

Direct access repairs can be good, bad, and potentially even necessary depending on the location. When the plumbing underground starts to leak, we can dig up the ground at the leak’s location, cut out the small piece of pipe that is leaking, and put a new piece in its place.

However, this is not an ideal solution. Repairing a small piece of an aged and deteriorating pipe will only be a temporary fix. Ideally, if at all possible, you would want to bypass that underground pipe completely and run a new pipe overhead.

When determining the cost factor, if the leak is located underneath a carpeted area, direct access might be a preferable solution. This is because we can simply lift the carpet and padding, repair the pipe and patch the concrete, and lay the carpet and padding back down. This can sometimes be the preferred method as it might be much more cost-effective.

Reroutes

Rerouting the plumbing overhead will be the best repair option as you bypass the already aged and leaking pipe below ground. That old pipe will no longer be connected to anything, and thus will never leak again. When running new plumbing overhead, there are many different avenues and options that can be taken. This is where working with experienced leak detection and repair companies is so crucial.

When rerouting plumbing, there is always more than one option, but if you don’t perform leak detection repairs 24/7 as we do, they might not be that obvious to you. Finding the best reroute option is important for the overall plumbing cost to you, the overall repair cost (drywall work), and your home’s water flow and pressure.

For example, imagine having an underground pipe that runs from the front of your home all the way to the back of your home. If that pipe is leaking underground, an inexperienced plumber, who doesn’t find and fix leaks all day, might suggest the most logical answer, which would be to run a new pipe from the front of your home all the way to the back. That will work however the plumbing and repair cost will be much higher as compared to if there is a water source that we can tap into that is closer to the intended destination.
