Leak Detection in Amarillo TX
High water bill? Mystery damp spots? Hearing running water? We find hidden leaks without tearing up your home.
How We Find a Leak You Can't See
Nothing is more frustrating than knowing you have a leak but having no idea where it is. Maybe your water bill suddenly skyrocketed, or you've noticed a warm, damp spot on your floor. Perhaps you can hear the faint sound of running water when the house is quiet, but every faucet is turned off.
The worst thing you can do is start guessing and tearing into walls or floors. At Patrick Plumbing Service, LLC, our focus is entirely on accurate diagnosis first. We use advanced technology to pinpoint the exact location of the leak down to the inch, so when it comes time for pipe repair & repiping, we only expose what is absolutely necessary.
Our Leak Detection Services
Electronic & Acoustic Detection
Water escaping a pipe under pressure makes a distinct sound. We use highly sensitive acoustic listening devices and electronic sensors to "hear" the leak through concrete slabs, walls, and soil, allowing us to find the source precisely.
Slab Leak Detection
A leak beneath your home's concrete foundation can cause massive structural damage if left unchecked. We specialize in non-invasive slab leak detection to locate the exact point of failure before any concrete is cut.
Hidden Pipe Leaks
Pipes routed through your walls and ceilings can develop pinhole leaks over time. We trace your plumbing lines and locate hidden moisture, ensuring we find the problem before it causes widespread mold or drywall damage.
Water Bill Spike Diagnosis
If your water bill has doubled or tripled without explanation, you have a leak. We conduct a thorough meter test and system inspection to track down where that water is going, whether it's a running toilet, a hidden line, or an outdoor water line leak.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do you find a leak under a concrete slab?
We use sensitive acoustic listening equipment to hear the sound of water escaping the pipe under pressure. We may also use electronic line tracing to map the exact path of your pipes under the concrete, allowing us to pinpoint the leak's location without digging.
Can the city check for a leak?
The city water department will usually only check the meter to confirm if water is flowing when everything is turned off, indicating a leak on your side of the meter. They will not locate the leak for you. You need a licensed plumber for that.
What are the signs of a hidden leak?
Common signs include a sudden spike in your water bill, hearing running water when no fixtures are on, warm or damp spots on the floor, musty odors, cracks in the foundation, or a water meter that continues to run even when the main shutoff valve to the house is closed.
