Leak Detection Services

Professional Leak Detection Services for San Francisco Homes
A hidden leak is more than a drip—it’s silent damage and a wasted utility bill. At Starboy Plumbing, we find leaks you can’t see, using advanced technology to pinpoint the problem without tearing up your home. Serving San Francisco and the Bay Area, we protect your property with accurate detection and precise repairs.
Advanced Leak Detection & Diagnostics
We use non-invasive, state-of-the-art tools to locate the source of moisture with accuracy:
Electronic Amplification Listening Devices: Pinpointing the exact sound of water escaping under slabs, behind walls, or under flooring.
Thermal Imaging Cameras: Detecting temperature differences behind surfaces to reveal hidden moisture and leaking pathways.
Video Pipe Inspection: Snaking a camera through pipes to visually locate cracks, breaks, or separation causing water loss.
Tracer Gas Detection: Introducing a safe, inert gas into pipes to locate elusive leaks in water and gas lines with precision.
Specific Leak Detection Services
We find leaks wherever they’re hiding, from your foundation to your roof:
Slab Leak Detection: Locating leaks under your home’s concrete foundation—a common issue in our area.
In-Wall & In-Ceiling Leak Detection: Finding leaks from pipes inside walls or between floors without unnecessary damage.
Irrigation & Outdoor Line Leaks: Detecting leaks in underground sprinkler systems and exterior water lines.
Pool & Spa Leak Detection: Identifying leaks in plumbing lines, fittings, or the structure itself.
Water Main Leak Detection: Finding leaks in the underground supply line between the city meter and your house.

Minimally Invasive Repairs: Using the detection data, we make a targeted access point, preserving your walls, floors, and landscaping.
