Hidden plumbing leaks can cause costly damage before they're ever visible. Since 1986, John Owens Services has been a successful leak detection plumber that has helped San Rafael homeowners accurately locate slab, water, gas, and irrigation leaks using professional diagnostic equipment and honest recommendations.
Hidden plumbing leaks don’t always leave obvious signs. Water can escape beneath concrete slabs, inside walls, below crawlspaces, or underground while slowly damaging your home and increasing your water bill. This is where professional plumbing leak detection is mandatory.
John Owens Services provides professional leak detection throughout San Rafael using advanced diagnostic equipment to accurately locate hidden leaks while minimizing unnecessary demolition. Once we’ve identified the source, we’ll explain what we found and review the repair options that make the most sense for your home.
San Rafael features everything from historic homes to newer construction, each with its own plumbing challenges. Whether you’re dealing with a slab leak, underground water line leak, irrigation leak, or hidden pipe leak, our experienced plumbers can help identify the problem before repairs begin.
If a gas or water leak repair is needed after the leak is located, we also provide Plumbing Repair, Water Heater Repair, and Drain & Sewer Services throughout San Rafael.
For nearly four decades, we’ve earned the trust of homeowners throughout Marin County by providing careful diagnostics and straightforward recommendations with our leak detection services.
