Water softener install. They tested our water first rather than just selling a unit, and sized it accordingly. Fixtures have stayed clean since.

Water Leak Detection & Repair in Independence, Iowa
A hidden leak is expensive twice: once on the water bill and again on the drywall. In Independence we find leaks with acoustic listening gear, thermal imaging and pressure isolation rather than by opening a wall and hoping. The goal is a small, precise hole in one place instead of a large exploratory one in three.
Call (833) 435-9778 and describe what is happening. We will give you an arrival window before you hang up and a flat price before anyone starts work - the same price at 2am as at 2pm.

Water pressure worth checking
A lot of Independence homes run higher static pressure than they should, and high pressure quietly shortens the life of every valve, supply line and water heater in the house. It is a cheap thing to measure and an inexpensive thing to correct with a pressure reducing valve.

Had them out for a leak under the sink and asked about our pressure while they were here. Turned out it was way high. New regulator, and the constant small drips around the house stopped.

Shower had been running cold randomly for months. Turned out to be the balancing cartridge, not the whole valve like another company told us. Fixed in under an hour.

Water Leak Repair in Independence: common questions
How do I know if I have a hidden water leak?
Turn off every fixture and appliance in the house, then look at the water meter. If the low-flow indicator is still turning, water is going somewhere. That test costs nothing and is the first thing we ask Independence callers to do.
Can you find a leak without tearing up my floor?
That is the whole point of the equipment. Acoustic gear and thermal imaging let us mark the spot within a small area, so the access we make is measured in inches rather than feet.
What is a slab leak?
It is a leak in a water line running beneath a concrete floor. Warm spots underfoot, unexplained damp on a slab and a running meter with everything off are the classic signs. Repair is usually either a spot fix or a reroute above the slab - we price both.
Is a small drip worth calling about?
Yes. A leak that is small today is doing damage every hour, and inside a wall you cannot see it accumulating. Small leaks are also the cheapest ones to fix.
Do you work on commercial properties in Independence?
Yes. Restaurants, salons, clinics, offices, churches and multi-tenant buildings across Independence. We schedule outside trading hours at no extra cost so a repair does not cost you a day of business.
