FAQs
How can I tell if I have a hidden water leak and need professional leak detection?
Common signs include an unexplained spike in your water bill, the sound of running water when no fixtures are on, damp or warm spots on floors and walls, mildew smells, or visible staining. If you notice any of these in your Winfield home or business, call us right away—our licensed plumbers can pinpoint the leak before it causes major structural or mold damage.
What leak-detection technology do you use?
Our technicians combine electronic acoustic listening devices, infrared thermal imaging cameras, and pressure testing equipment to locate leaks without tearing into walls or slabs. In many cases we can identify the exact pipe and pinpoint the break within inches, which minimizes the amount of cutting or digging required for repair.
How fast can your emergency plumbers get to my Winfield property?
Because we have on-call crews stationed in and around Winfield 24/7, we typically arrive within 60 minutes of your call—often faster during normal business hours. Our dispatch team routes the closest certified technician to you and keeps you updated on their ETA via text or phone.
Will my homeowners insurance cover leak detection and repair?
Many standard homeowners policies in Illinois cover sudden and accidental water damage but not the cost of repairing the leaking pipe itself. However, some carriers reimburse leak-detection costs because they prevent further damage. We provide detailed reports and photos that you can submit to your insurer, and we’re happy to communicate directly with adjusters to streamline the claim process.
What should I do while waiting for the emergency plumber to arrive?
Turn off the main water shut-off valve to stop the flow, switch off electricity in areas where water is pooling, and move valuables out of the affected space. If it’s safe, open windows or run fans to reduce humidity. Do not attempt to open walls or slabs yourself—improperly exposing piping can worsen the damage and complicate repairs.
Are your leak-detection and emergency services available after hours, and is there an extra fee?
Yes. We provide 24/7 emergency coverage—including nights, weekends, and holidays—to all Winfield residents. There is a modest after-hours dispatch fee, but we always quote the full price up-front before work begins. All diagnostics and repairs are backed by a written warranty and completed to local plumbing code.
