We utilize non-invasive electronic leak detection technology in Newark. This includes electro-acoustic ground microphones that listen for pipe vibrations, infrared thermal imaging cameras that detect temperature variations caused by escaping water, and helium tracer gas for sub-slab pipe systems. This ensures pinpoint accuracy before any minor drywall or concrete opening is made.

If your water heater is under 8-10 years old and experiencing a faulty thermostat, failed heating element, or broken thermocouple, an affordable repair is usually recommended. However, if the internal tank is corroded, leaking from the base, or over 10-12 years old, upgrading to a high-efficiency tankless or hybrid system can save up to 40% on water heating utility bills. Our Newark plumbers will inspect your system and provide honest options.

First, locate and turn off your property's main water shutoff valve (usually situated in the basement, utility closet, or near the water meter) to stop active water flow. Next, open a low-level faucet to relieve residual water line pressure. Turn off electrical power to any flooded areas at the breaker panel, avoid using plumbing fixtures, and call 877-410-0321 for live safety instructions while our technician is en route.
