How to Choose the Right Leak Detection Company (And What to Avoid)

When you’re dealing with a water leak—whether it’s under a slab, in your irrigation line, or somewhere around your pool—you don’t have time to waste. Choosing the right leak detection company can mean the difference between a quick, clean fix and a drawn-out, expensive headache.

At Leak Detection Pros, we know how stressful a leak can be. That’s why we’ve put together this guide to help you know what to look for—and what to watch out for—when hiring a leak detection professional.

1. Look for Specialization—Not Just Plumbing

Many plumbers offer leak detection services, but not all of them specialize in it. A true leak detection company will have dedicated tools, training, and techniques to find leaks without unnecessary digging or demolition.

👉 Pro Tip: Ask if they use sonic or acoustic leak detection equipment. If not, they may be guessing—or worse, tearing up property to “look around.”

🛠️ 2. Ask About Their Tools and Technology

The right company will be equipped with professional-grade tools designed to find hidden leaks beneath concrete, in walls, or underground without causing damage. Make sure they’re using non-invasive methods—and not just poking holes or making assumptions.

🕒 3. Consider Their Response Time

Leaks can cause damage fast. You don’t want to wait a week to get on someone’s schedule. A reliable leak detection company will offer quick turnaround, ideally same or next-day service.

At Leak Detection Pros, we’re proud to say:
“Call today—we’ll be there tomorrow.”

💬 4. Real Reviews—and Real People Who Answer the Phone

Online reviews matter, but so does who’s actually on the other end of the phone when you call.

At Leak Detection Pros, we don’t use call centers, booking agencies, or third-party schedulers. When you call us, you’re speaking directly to the owners or trained technicians who will be doing the work. That means you get answers—not a script—and a fast, informed response from someone who knows what they’re doing.

Don’t just take our word for it—check our reviews. Look for feedback that mentions:

  • Honest, upfront communication

  • Fast scheduling and clear expectations

  • Professional, respectful service

  • Accuracy and thoroughness

We're proud of the reputation we've built in the Tulsa area, and we work hard to live up to it with every call.

🧾 5. Transparent Pricing

You should always receive honest, upfront pricing before the job starts. Be cautious of vague estimates or companies that only give pricing after they show up.

⚠️ What to Avoid

  • ❌ Companies that say, “We’ll try to find it” instead of “We’ll pinpoint it.”

  • ❌ Lack of proper detection tools or reliance on invasive methods

  • ❌ Delayed scheduling for urgent problems

  • ❌ No real online presence or reviews
