FAQs
That is exactly what we are here for! Mystery leaks frustrate many homeowners, but our team brings decades of combined experience to every job. We specialize in comprehensive Leak Detection services to pinpoint hidden moisture sources. No matter where the water hides or what causes it, our specialists will find it, and fix it, for good.
We don’t work directly with your homeowner’s insurance, but we will work with you if you are getting reimbursed. If you need extra time to figure out the details with your insurance or are waiting for a check from them, we can adjust or pause with you to make the process as smooth as possible.
We stand by our expertise. If the exact same leak reappears after our repair, we will return to repeat the Leak Detection process free of charge. If we find any issues with our workmanship, we will correct them for free. If we discover completely new, contributing factors, we will provide a clear estimate for those additional repairs.
We break our process down into distinct phases to ensure accuracy and high-quality results:
Initial Leak Detection: This on-site investigation typically takes between 2 to 8 hours.
Comprehensive Reporting: You receive a detailed Leak Report within approximately 14 business days.
Water Intrusion Repair Phase: Average repairs take 1 to 2 days to complete. Extensive structural work might require a couple of weeks.
Weather Testing: After we complete the repairs, we wait for 3 to 4 weather events to pass. This waiting period proves the leak is fully resolved before we perform cosmetic drywall repairs.
