Leak Detection and Repair in Geneva, IL

A stain spreading across a plaster ceiling, a water bill that keeps rising or the sound of running water at night. We pinpoint hidden leaks before opening anything, fix them and give you a flat price you approve first. From our office on Campbell Street.

Local Knowledge

Leaks in Geneva Homes

In Geneva, the age of your home shapes where leaks start.

Galvanized Pipe Near Downtown

Many older homes still have galvanized supply lines. They rust from the inside, and leaks start at threaded joints, often in several places.

Plaster Walls and Ceilings

In historic homes, finding a leak precisely matters. We locate it first so only a small area of plaster is opened.

Supply Lines in Newer Homes

In homes built after 1990, original braided lines and washer hoses are now aging.

Freeze Damage

A pipe that split in January often leaks only after it thaws. See burst pipe repair.
