Leak Detection Services in Encinitas & North San Diego County (Water & Gas)

Find Your Residential or Commercial Water or Gas Leak

At Encinitas Plumbing, we specialize in professional leak detection for both water and gas systems throughout Encinitas and North San Diego County. Whether you’re dealing with a hidden water leak under your home or suspect a gas leak in your system, our approach is focused on accurate diagnostics, safety, and code-compliant solutions.

Not all leaks are visible—and not all contractors take the time to properly diagnose them. We use proven methods and real-world experience to locate leaks efficiently while minimizing unnecessary damage or guesswork.

Water Leak Detection

Water leaks can occur in a variety of locations, including underground service lines, slab foundations, walls, ceilings, and fixtures. Left unaddressed, even a small leak can lead to structural damage, mold growth, and increased utility costs.

We specialize in identifying hidden leaks and determining the most effective path for repair.

Common Water Leak Areas

• Underground service lines between the meter and home
• Slab leaks in hot and cold water lines
• Leaks inside walls, ceilings, or flooring
• Crawl space or foundation leaks
• Irrigation and exterior plumbing leaks

Gas Leak Detection

Gas Leak Detection & Safety

Gas leaks require immediate attention and should never be ignored. If you smell gas, hear hissing, or suspect a leak, it’s critical to shut off the gas supply and contact a qualified professional.

At Encinitas Plumbing, we provide gas leak detection and repair services for residential systems, including gas lines serving water heaters, furnaces, and appliances.

Signs of a Gas Leak

• Sulphur or "rotten egg" odor
• Hissing sounds near gas lines
• Dead vegetation near buried gas lines
• Unexplained increase in gas usage
• Physical symptoms like dizziness or headaches

Our Diagnostic Approach

Our Approach to Leak Detection

We don’t guess—we diagnose. Every leak detection service begins with a systematic evaluation of your plumbing system to determine the source of the issue and the best course of action.

Leaks are often just one part of a larger plumbing issue. Depending on what we find, repairs may involve related components throughout your system—including tankless water heater service, gas line installation and repair, toilet repair or faucet repair. Our goal is to locate the problem accurately the first time and provide clear recommendations for repair.
