What our Clients think about us
Your satisfaction is our priority.
What Is Leaking Pipe Repair (Walls, Ceilings, Slabs)?
Leaking pipe repair (walls, ceilings, slabs) covers finding and fixing leaks that are:
Behind walls or inside ceilings where you can’t see the pipe
Under floors or slabs, causing warm spots or damp areas
In tight or finished spaces, where smart access and clean repair matter
It includes:
Leak locating and diagnosis (is it a supply leak, drain leak, or slab leak?)
Carefully opening access to reach the bad section of pipe
Cutting out and replacing damaged sections with new, approved materials
Testing the system and checking for additional leaks
The goal is to stop the leak, repair the pipe properly, and limit the damage to your home.
Why Choose Active Plumbing
Hidden leak experts: We track down slow drips and hidden leaks, not just obvious gushers.
Walls, ceilings, and slabs: Experience with leaks in finished walls, textured ceilings, and under-slab piping.
Targeted access: We aim to minimize how much we open walls or ceilings, while still getting proper access to fix the leak.
Repair plus prevention mindset: We look at pipe condition around the leak and tell you if more issues may be coming.
Local knowledge: We understand Las Vegas construction, slab foundations, and hard-water-related piping issues.
Licensed & insured: Nevada License #0047021, trusted for leaking pipe repair in Las Vegas and surrounding communities.
Immediate Actions (What to Do Now)
Shut off water to the affected fixture or at the main shutoff if you see active dripping, running water, or spreading wet spots.
Keep away from ceilings that are sagging or bulging from water, and don’t step into standing water near electrical outlets or cords.
Move furniture, rugs, and personal items out of damp areas if you can safely do so to reduce damage.
Place towels, buckets, or pans under drips and take a few photos or short videos of wet spots, stains, and damaged areas for your records.
Call Active Plumbing at (702) 438-3357, explain where you see moisture (wall, ceiling, slab/floor, outside), and we’ll help you with leaking pipe detection and repair as quickly as possible.
Common Hidden Leak Situations We See
Ceiling stains or drips under bathrooms, kitchens, or laundry rooms
Bubbling paint or soft drywall along walls near showers or tubs
Wet baseboards or flooring, especially along interior walls
Warm spots on floors that suggest under-slab hot water leaks
Mysterious dampness in cabinets or under sinks with no obvious drip
Musty odors or slight discoloration that keep coming back after cleaning
Water meter movement when no fixtures are running, hinting at a hidden leak
If you see new stains, dampness, or a growing “mystery spot,” it’s time to get the leak checked before the damage spreads.
Call & Symptom Review
You call (702) 438-3357 and tell us what you’re seeing—water spots, ceiling drips, warm floors, musty smells, or high water bills. We schedule a visit for leaking pipe detection and repair.
On-Site Inspection & Leak Confirmation
Your plumber checks the affected area, nearby fixtures, and the water meter, looking for visual clues and using basic tests to confirm whether the problem is a supply leak, drain leak, or slab-related issue.
Leak Locating & Access Planning
We use experience, moisture readings, and where necessary, leak-detection methods to narrow down the leak location. Then we plan small, targeted access openings in walls, ceilings, or floors to reach the damaged pipe with minimal disruption.
Leaking Pipe Repair or Section Replacement
Once we expose the problem area, we cut out the damaged pipe or fitting, install new piping and connections (copper or PEX, as appropriate), and secure and support the new section. For drains, we repair or replace the leaking fittings or sections.
System Testing & Additional Checks
We pressurize and run water through the repaired section, check for any additional leaks, and confirm that the affected fixtures and lines operate normally again.
Clean-Up, Documentation & Next-Step Advice
We clean up our work area and explain what failed, why it likely happened, and what we fixed. You receive documentation and recommendations for drying, restoration, and any future maintenance or re-piping to prevent recurring issues.
What’s Included
On-site inspection of walls, ceilings, floors, and nearby fixtures in the affected area
Leak locating and confirmation of the type and approximate location of the leak
Targeted access openings (walls, ceilings, or floors) as needed to reach the leaking pipe
Repair or replacement of the leaking pipe section using approved materials
Testing of the repaired area under normal operating conditions to confirm no leaks
Written notes and guidance for any restoration, mitigation, or recommended future upgrades
Costs & Timelines (What to Expect)
Many leaking pipe repairs can be diagnosed and repaired in a single visit, especially when access is straightforward.
You receive clear, upfront pricing once we identify the likely leak location and before we open walls or ceilings for repair.
Costs depend on where the leak is (wall, ceiling, slab), how difficult it is to access, the length and size of pipe that must be replaced, and whether additional rerouting or re-piping is recommended.
Every job includes a line-item estimate separating diagnostic, leak locating, repair labor, materials, and any optional re-piping or upgrades clearly.
Insurance & Claims Help
Leaks in walls, ceilings, and slabs often lead to water damage and restoration work:
We can document where the leak occurred, what pipe or fitting failed, and what repairs we made.
Our detailed invoices help show your insurance adjuster what was required to fix the plumbing.
We can coordinate timing with mitigation/restoration companies handling dry-out, demolition, and rebuild while we handle the plumbing side.
(Coverage and claim decisions are always made by your specific insurance policy and carrier; this is not financial or legal advice.)
Risks of Waiting (Why Act Now)
Hidden structural damage: Slow leaks can soak framing, insulation, and drywall, weakening structures over time.
Mold and mildew: Persistent moisture behind walls or ceilings can lead to mold growth and musty odors.
Higher repair bills: What starts as a small stain can become a major ceiling or wall repair if left alone.
Electrical hazards: Leaks near lights, outlets, or wiring can lead to shorts or unsafe conditions.
More leaks in old piping: If the leak is part of an older system, waiting may mean more leaks in other spots.
Methods, Materials & Quality Standards
Practical leak detection: We combine experience, targeted tests, and appropriate tools to find leaks without tearing everything open.
Code-compliant repairs: All piping repairs and replacements follow local plumbing codes in Clark County and surrounding areas.
Quality materials: We use Type L copper, PEX, and approved fittings sized and installed correctly for your home.
Thoughtful access: We plan access points to make restoration and patching easier after the plumbing repair is complete.
Hard water considerations: We factor in Las Vegas hard water, and may suggest treatment or maintenance to help reduce future leaks.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if a stain is from a plumbing leak or something else (like roof or AC)?
Sometimes it’s hard to tell by sight alone. We look at location, timing, and test fixture usage to help determine whether the moisture is from plumbing, roof, AC, or another source. If it’s plumbing, we’ll track down the line and repair it.
Will you have to open my walls or ceilings?
Often yes—small access openings are usually needed to reach and repair leaking pipes. We plan these openings carefully and keep them as contained as possible so they’re easier to patch.
Can you just patch the area, or do we need more extensive work?
We always fix the pipe properly, not just cover the damage. If we see signs that the surrounding piping is failing, we’ll explain options for larger re-pipe or reroute work, so you can decide how far to go.
What if the leak is in the slab?
If testing points toward a slab leak, we can provide slab leak detection and repair options—either direct repair through the slab or rerouting lines above slab, depending on what’s best for your home.
Will a leaking pipe always show dampness right away?
Not always. Some leaks are slow and hidden, showing up first as slight staining, musty odor, or higher water bills. That’s why early investigation is important.
