Portland area water leak detection service Rush Locates, LLC can help you find a leak in a buried water pipe. We work in Vancouver as well and all the surrounding areas. See our Online Booking page.
You first want to check to see if the leak is underground or not. If you have a working shut off valve at the house then turn that and check the meter for movement. Make sure to turn off your irrigation too. If the dial is still showing water use and you are not using water then it’s probably a buried water leak.
Rush Locates uses advanced tools and technology to find water leaks. Tracer gas, acoustic ultrasonic microphone listening systems, thermal imaging, and utility locating help us to find the buried water leaks in every situation.
These techniques are non-destructive and non-invasive. They do not require digging or ruining your whole yard. We can perform sewer scopes to check for sewer leaks and utility/water line locating to locate other pipes and wires before exposing the water leak.

Water leaks which are buried in the ground don’t always make a wet spot on the surface, and in some cases where they do make a wet spot is not where the leak is. If you have trouble finding the source of your buried water leak then call us to pinpoint the location so you can fix it. Stop hidden leaks fast with Rush Locates.
A note of warning for those with older lines. The galvanized metal lines rust from the inside and you lost water pressure as they rust, by the time a rust hole penetrates the pipe and causes a water leak the integrity of the whole pipe assembly is suspect. In the cases where you have steel water pipes 50 years old or older you should consider replacing the whole line instead of fixing the leaks. One leak is fine to fix, more than 2 means you should consider replacement.
