Know the Warning Signs

Signs You May Have a Water Leak

Many leaks in Austin homes go undetected for months. By the time there's visible water damage, the repair cost has already multiplied. These are the signs worth taking seriously:

  • Your water bill has increased with no change in usage
  • Sound of running water when all fixtures are off
  • Damp patches, discoloration, or soft spots on walls or ceilings
  • Warm spots or damp areas on your floor (sign of a slab leak)
  • Low water pressure throughout the house
  • Mold or mildew smell without visible water
  • Water meter moves when every fixture in the house is off
What We Find

Every Type of Leak, Precisely Located.

Water finds its way through any weak point. We diagnose the source — not just the symptom — before any repair work begins.

Slab Leaks

Leaks in pipes beneath your concrete foundation. Austin's clay-heavy soil causes pipe movement year-round. We locate the exact point before any concrete is touched.

High damage risk if left untreated

Hidden Pipe Leaks

Leaks behind walls, inside ceilings, or under flooring that show no visible water yet. We trace the source without unnecessary demolition.

Mold risk within 24–48 hours

Fixture & Fitting Leaks

Dripping faucets, leaking valves, failing supply lines, and running toilets. Small drips waste thousands of gallons per year and raise your Austin Water bill.

Ongoing water waste

Underground Line Leaks

Main water line and irrigation leaks between the meter and your home. These run silently underground and can go months without causing visible damage.

Often shows up as a high water bill first

Water Heater Leaks

Tank corrosion, failing pressure relief valves, and loose connections around your water heater. Caught early, most are inexpensive repairs — left alone, they aren't.

Can escalate to full tank failure

Gas Line Leaks

If you smell sulfur or suspect a gas leak, call 911 first, then us. We perform gas line pressure tests and locate leaks in residential supply lines.

FAQ

Leak Detection Questions, Answered.

Common signs include an unexplained increase in your water bill, the sound of running water when nothing is on, damp spots on walls or floors, low water pressure, or a water meter that moves when all fixtures are off. If you notice any of these in your Austin home, call 512-285-7400.
A slab leak is a water leak in the pipes running beneath your home's concrete foundation. Austin's expansive clay soil puts constant stress on buried pipes. Signs include warm spots on the floor, the sound of water underfoot, cracks in flooring, or a sudden spike in water bills. We use non-invasive methods to locate the exact leak point before any concrete is removed.
Pricing depends on the type and location of the leak. SolidStreams gives you an upfront price before any work begins — no hourly billing, no surprises. Call 512-285-7400 to describe what you're seeing and get a clear idea of cost.
