What Is Electronic Leak Detection?
Electronic leak detection is the use of acoustic, thermal, and electromagnetic technology to locate hidden leaks in plumbing. Instead of guessing and cutting or digging, we use equipment to find the leak first. That saves time, limits damage to your property, and leads to a precise repair. In Vegas, this is especially useful for slab and underground leaks.

Electronic Leak Detection — Frequently Asked Questions
It is the use of acoustic (listening), thermal (heat), and sometimes electromagnetic equipment to find hidden leaks without blindly cutting or digging. We listen for the sound of water escaping or use temperature and other signals to pinpoint the leak.
Usually not for the detection phase. We locate the leak first with non-invasive tools. If repair is needed, we then make a targeted opening. That minimizes damage compared to guessing and cutting in multiple places.
Yes. Slab leaks are common here due to caliche soil and ground movement. We use acoustic and other electronic methods to find the leak under the slab before we recommend repair or reroute.
We can give you an estimate for detection over the phone. Repair cost is quoted separately after we locate the leak. Call (702) 438-3357 for current pricing.
