UNDERSTAND THE SERVICE
Start with the source.
Underground detection covers concealed water pipes outside the home, including private supply lines and other buried branches. Pool plumbing and irrigation systems may need separate isolation and specialist equipment.
What an assessment may involve
A contractor may identify accessible pipe routes, isolate branches, check the meter, and listen for a pressurized leak. Pipe material, depth, background noise and access all affect what can be detected.
Before you arrange a visit
Describe where water appears and when it returns. Mention irrigation timers, pool filling, previous pipe repairs and any known private-line route. Keep people away from unstable ground.
Detection, access and repair
Leak detection and utility locating are different tasks. Finding the water leak does not clear the area for excavation. Confirm the necessary utility marking and digging arrangements before any ground is opened.
Questions about underground water leak detection
Is the wettest spot always above the leak?
No. Water can travel through soil and along trenches before reaching the surface. Investigation should consider the pipe route and test results.
Does this include the pipe from the meter to the house?
That is a common private water-line issue. The water-line service page explains this supply-line focus in more detail.
Will every underground leak require digging?
Repairs may need access, but the detection approach and any exploratory digging should be discussed before work begins.
