Schedule Service

Hidden leaks are one of the most expensive plumbing problems a Statham homeowner can face. A slow slab leak, a dripping supply line inside a wall, or a broken service line under the yard can cost thousands in water bills and structural damage before anyone notices.

After Hours Plumbing uses professional leak-detection equipment — acoustic listening devices, thermal imaging, and pressure testing — to find leaks in Statham, GA without tearing your home apart.

Our Leak Detection Services in Statham

Slab Leak Detection

We locate leaks in the copper or Pex lines running under your slab in Statham using acoustic and pressure-testing techniques, then discuss repair options — spot repair, reroute, or repipe.

Wall & Ceiling Leaks

Water stains, bubbling paint, and mysterious drips are almost never where the leak actually is. We trace the source before we cut a single hole.

Service Line Leak Detection

A leak between the meter and your Statham home shows up as a huge water bill and a meter that runs when nothing is on. We locate the leak and repair or replace the affected section of service line.

Whole-Home Pressure Testing

When multiple issues are suspected, we isolate the system with pressure gauges to identify exactly which fixture, branch, or line is losing water.

Leak Detection in Statham — FAQs

How do I know I have a hidden water leak in my Statham home?+

Common signs include an unexplained water bill increase, the sound of running water when nothing is on, warm spots on a slab floor, damp drywall, or a water meter dial that spins with everything shut off.

How much does leak detection cost in Statham?+

We quote a flat leak-detection fee up front. If we perform the repair as well, that fee is often credited toward the total repair price.

What is a slab leak?+

A slab leak is a leak in the pressurized water lines beneath the concrete slab foundation of your Statham home. Left alone, it can undermine the foundation and cause thousands in damage.

Can you find a leak without breaking anything?+

In most cases, yes. Acoustic and thermal tools let us pinpoint most leaks within a small area before any drywall or slab is opened.

Do you repair the leak or just locate it?+

We do both. Our Statham technicians locate the leak and, in most cases, perform the repair on the same visit.

Will homeowner's insurance cover a leak repair?+

Insurance generally covers water damage from a sudden leak but not the plumbing repair itself. Coverage varies — check your policy or ask your agent.

What causes slab leaks in Statham?+

Common causes include shifting foundations, chemical corrosion of copper, poor original installation, and abrasion where lines cross rebar or aggregate under the slab.

How long does leak detection take?+

Most leak detection jobs in Statham are completed within 1-2 hours. Complex service-line or multi-leak situations can take longer.

Do you use cameras for leak detection?+

Cameras are used for drain and sewer inspection. For pressurized water leaks, we use acoustic listening devices, thermal imaging, and pressure isolation.

Can you detect leaks on well systems in Statham?+

Yes. We can pressure-test and locate leaks on both municipal and private well plumbing systems throughout Statham, GA.
