Leak Detection
Acoustic and pressure testing to find hidden leaks before any walls or floors are opened.

Pinhole leaks and joint failures in supply lines inside walls — most commonly galvanized steel in York's older homes. Section replacement in copper or PEX at the confirmed leak location, with the access opening limited to what is necessary.
Supply line leaks under or through a concrete slab, located with acoustic equipment and repaired by direct access through the slab, rerouting the line above the slab, or epoxy lining where applicable.
Braided supply lines and shut-off valves at toilets, faucets, and appliances fail and are a common source of minor leaks under sinks and behind toilets. Replacement takes less than an hour in most cases.
Threaded joints in galvanized systems corrode and weep at the threads. Soldered copper joints fail at pin-holes in the solder bead. Each requires opening access at the affected joint and remaking the connection with appropriate materials.
When pinhole leaks are occurring in multiple locations across the supply system, repiping in PEX or copper addresses the underlying cause rather than chasing individual leaks indefinitely.
