Leak Detection in Greenwich: what the job involves
A water bill that jumped, a meter that creeps with everything closed, a warm patch on a floor, a musty smell with no visible source - these are leaks you cannot see. We locate them with acoustic listening equipment, thermal imaging and pressure isolation, so the opening we make is a small one in the right place instead of a large one in the wrong place.
The method depends on the suspect. Supply leaks under a slab give themselves away acoustically under pressure. Drain leaks need isolation and sometimes a camera. Leaks in a wall cavity are often found faster with thermal imaging than with a hammer. We work through it in order rather than guessing.
When to call us
- Water bill up with no change in usage
- Meter dial moving with every fixture closed
- Warm or damp spot on a floor
- Musty smell, or paint and plaster bubbling
Greenwich and the area around it
Basements in and around Greenwich take water in a heavy spring, and the two systems standing between you and a flooded floor are the sump pump and the sewer lateral. Both fail silently and both fail at the worst possible moment. Testing a pump properly takes ten minutes and it is worth doing before the melt, not during it.
Every job in Greenwich starts with a diagnosis and a price. You approve the number before any work starts, and that includes nights, weekends and holidays. If we find something else once the wall is open, work stops and we talk to you before it carries on.
What is included
- Acoustic listening for pressurised supply leaks
- Thermal imaging for wall, ceiling and floor cavities
- Meter and pressure testing to confirm a leak exists
- Slab leak location and repair options
- Written findings with the location marked

Reviews from Greenwich customers
Garbage disposal was humming and I was ready to buy a new one. It was jammed. He freed it, checked the trap, and charged me almost nothing.
Derek A.Garbage disposal · Greenwich, NYThe kitchen sink had been clogging every couple of months for two years. This time they actually looked at why, found the trap arm was pitched wrong, and re-piped it. Hasn't blocked since.
Ellen W.Drain cleaning · Greenwich, NYBasement smelled of sewage after heavy rain. They found a dry trap and a partially blocked main, sorted both, and explained what had actually been happening.
Lauren Q.Drain cleaning · Greenwich, NYLeak Detection in Greenwich: common questions
How do I check for a leak myself?
Turn off every fixture, then look at the meter. If the low-flow indicator is still moving, water is going somewhere. That one test tells us a lot before we arrive.
Will you need to break the floor?
Only after we know where. The point of detection equipment is to make that opening as small and as correctly placed as possible.
Can you find a leak under a concrete slab?
Yes. Slab leaks are located acoustically under pressure, and we will talk you through repair versus rerouting the line above the slab.
What areas around Greenwich do you cover?
We cover Greenwich and the surrounding towns and villages, and our coverage extends across New York. If you are not sure whether your address is in range, call and ask - it takes a moment to check.
Do you charge extra for nights, weekends or holidays?
After-hours work in Greenwich carries a higher rate than a scheduled weekday appointment. That rate is quoted on the phone before we dispatch, so the number you agree to is the number on the invoice.
How quickly can a plumber get to me in Greenwich?
It depends on where the nearest van is and what is on the board, so we give you an honest window on the phone. Emergency calls in Greenwich are prioritised over scheduled work, and we tell you what to do in the meantime rather than leaving you waiting.
