One Line Reroute from Manifold(Fixture to Fixture)
$3100-$3400
Leaking lines are cut off at the accessible manifold and rerouted through the ceiling or attic using PEX or copper, ensuring expert leak detection for your plumbing diagnostics. It's essential that the property has accessible manifolds. Prior to rerouting, the path and fixture location must be confirmed. Island sink lines may be pulled, downsized, or abandoned as part of our non-invasive leak solutions. Please note that there is no guarantee on slab pulls, with approximately an 8/10 success rate on straight runs. 🛠️ Note: Drywall/ceiling repair is not included. Estimates may be revised before work begins if access or routing changes.
AquaPea® In-Line Pipe Repair
$1800(NO GUARANTEE)
Low-invasive leak repair for pressurized lines is essential for effective plumbing diagnostics. The leaking line is isolated through expert leak detection using manifold testing, and then it is sealed internally with the AquaPea® device, ensuring a non-invasive leak solution.
✅ Service Info:
Requires two small drywall cuts at each manifold (repair by others).
~80% success rate, based on leak size and pipe condition.
If systemic issues are found, a reroute estimate will be provided.
💲 Pricing:
Full price if the repair is successful. If not, and reroute isn’t approved, an hourly charge plus AquaPea® cost applies.
Trenchless Water Service Line Replacement
$3600
🚫Please note that this method is not compatible with galvanized pipe.
✅ Service Details:
- Requires 1–2 small access holes.
- A new line is pulled from the house shut-off valve to the meter.
- Success depends on the condition of the old line, nearby utilities, and tree roots.
- All utilities must be located and marked prior to service.
- A concrete patch will be applied after access if applicable.
Slab or Service Line Leak Repairs(Direct Access)
TBD
The standard pricing for underground leak repairs is not available without prior leak detection, which utilizes expert leak detection methods. Factors such as anomalies at the leak site, nearby footings, or multiple pipes in the area can significantly influence the cost of a direct access repair. To avoid a misleading estimate, we cannot provide a repair quote until a thorough leak detection has been performed, including non-invasive leak techniques and plumbing diagnostics. Once completed, we will provide a detailed estimate for the necessary repair.
Please Note: The prices listed on The Leak Authority website are general estimates and can vary based on factors such as property size, job complexity, and the length or location of the affected line. For a more precise estimate, especially when it comes to expert leak detection or non-invasive leak solutions, please email us with your name, address, and a brief description of your concern regarding plumbing diagnostics. We’ll get back to you as soon as possible.
Leak Detection Guarantee – The Leak Authority
At The Leak Authority, we utilize the most advanced leak detection tools and techniques available in the industry today — including acoustic listening devices, tracer gas, thermal imaging, and moisture mapping. However, even with cutting-edge technology, leak detection is not an exact science. We want our customers to understand that while we are highly experienced and knowledgeable, we don’t have X-ray vision.
Numerous factors — such as soil conditions, material composition, nearby drains, sleeved or repaired piping, and other variables — can impact the accuracy of any detection. Despite these challenges, leak detection remains far less invasive and more cost-effective than guesswork or premature full plumbing replacement.
