Indpendent Leak Detection

After being referred by Lett’s Plumbing to have our slab leak detected and pipes mapped out for a reroute job, we called Steve. Made arrangements for him to come out and he appeared on time and ready to work. He not only located the pipes and leak, he also was a great source of info on our newishly purchased home. He explained exactly where our pipes ran and having previously been a plumber himself, pretty much laid out exactly what type of job (and money) we’d be looking at. He was very easy to speak with and friendly. I highly recommend him for all leak detection needs.

Professional, knowledgeable, friendly and extremely helpful. Those are the words I’d use to describe our experience with Steve. He returned our call promptly, showed up on time and thoroughly and accurately diagnosed our issue. Highly recommended. Thank you Steve!

We had Steve come out due to a hot water leak in our master bedroom’s bathroom. Steve measured the tile floor temp was at 91 degrees, so no it wasn’t my imagination that the floor felt warm to my bare feet. Steve was very professional, thorough, marked where the leak was streaming from to where it was flowing with red tape writing on the tape with directions also. Steve found our leaks, proposed options to fix it and to prevent any further leaks by contacting a plumber with his findings & recommendations. Steve has nothing to gain by his findings and truly was looking out for our best interest in this matter.
As a side note, Steve is also wonderful with dogs & cats. We have 2 older dogs & 3 cats in our home and Steve was so very kind to all of them. Thanks Steve for being on time, professional, clean, courteous and kind. We highly recommend Steve & his company for your leak issues.

We had a leak in the water line from the meter at the street to our house (approx 100 feet). Because the line was plastic with no tracer wire, several plumbers and leak detection companies either refused to look for the leak or wanted to charge thousands of dollars to basically dig up the whole yard. i was fortunate enough to find another plumber who sent his leak detection ‘specialist’ (ILD) to find it. Steve found the leak within 15 minutes and our plumber had it completely repaired a couple hours later. Steve is an amazing artist in this business and truly a professional!

Unfortunately, I can’t comment on Independent Leak Detection’s work, but I sure can praise Steve (the owner?) for his professionalism. I have a leak in my pool that needs to be tracked down so I called ILD based on their positive Unilocal reviews and the fact that they are located close to my house (I like to support the locals). My call went to voicemail so I left a detailed message of my situation. Steve called me back within a few minutes and politely let me know that he did not handle pools and referred me to another company. It would have been far easier for him to just blow me off and go back to customers he actually could service. Thank you Steve for the courtesy!

If Steve’s services are anything like his communication and follow-​through, stay away! I had small gas leak in the crawl space under my house, so (based on Unilocal reviews) called Steve to find it. Took him 48 hours to call me back. On that call, he told me he’d check his schedule and call me back. Never heard from him again. Didn’t return any of my repeated calls. There are too many good plumbers and other leak detection companies out there to deal with this kind of unprofessionalism.

Steve was very professional and helpful. He found the gas leak in our backyard very quickly and charged $ 100 less than the other quote I had. Strong recommendation if you spring a leak. :)

Henson’s Plumbing recommended and sent this Leak Detection company out to my house to find my leak in the pipes. I have had leaks before where insurance companies have sent leak detectors and some were awful and made huge holes even in places like my closet where there weren’t any pipes even! And these were your typical big name companies, but unfortunately clueless! However, when you find someone that is good, you want to make sure you keep his business card just in case you ever need him again! So to save y’all the trouble, I want to Unilocal this guy to help if you ever are in the situation I am in!
He is very efficient, on time (being late is my pet peeve), cleans up after himself (who doesn’t love a man who does THAT!), and gets the job done. Leak detectors always more expensive than plumbers, but you have to bite the bullet to figure it out sometimes. So with my unfortunate circumstance where I noticed water bills doubling and hearing running water in my walls where the water is off at 2 am, I have no choice to fix the darn pipe, at least I found someone professional and good to do the job right in the first place!
