When water runs somewhere it should not, the damage spreads quickly, and the source is not always easy to find. Classic Plumbing offers leak detection and repair services throughout Wichita Falls, Henrietta, Holliday, and surrounding areas, locating hidden leaks in walls, under slabs, and behind fixtures before they cause mold growth, structural damage, or high water bills. Slab leaks are especially common in Wichita Falls homes due to shifting foundations and aging copper lines, and catching them early prevents flooring damage and expensive repairs.


Leak detection services include locating slab leaks, pipe leaks, and fixture leaks using professional equipment such as electronic listening devices, infrared cameras, and pressure testing tools. Once the leak is found, Classic Plumbing repairs the damaged pipe with minimal disruption, often without tearing up large sections of flooring or drywall. The work is planned to stop the water loss, restore normal pressure, and prevent the same issue from returning.


If you notice wet spots, rising water bills, or the sound of running water when everything is turned off, reach out to schedule leak detection in Wichita Falls or a neighboring community.

What Happens During Leak Detection and Repair?

Leak detection in Wichita Falls starts with a pressure test to confirm water loss, followed by the use of electronic listening equipment and thermal imaging to pinpoint the exact location of the leak. For slab leaks, Classic Plumbing uses non-invasive tools to locate the damaged section of pipe beneath the foundation without unnecessary demolition. Once the leak is found, only the affected area is accessed for repair.


After the repair is finished, you will notice that water pressure returns to normal, the sound of running water stops, wet spots dry out, and your water bill drops back to its usual range. Slab leak repairs prevent soft spots in your flooring and stop moisture from seeping into walls or baseboards.


Classic Plumbing is experienced with the older piping materials found in Wichita Falls area homes, including copper, galvanized steel, and polybutylene, and provides fast response to limit structural damage. Early detection at the first sign of water loss helps avoid mold, foundation issues, and complete pipe replacement.

Here is what homeowners typically want to know

Before scheduling leak detection, homeowners often ask how leaks are located, what the repair process involves, and whether the work requires tearing up floors or walls.

What are the signs of a slab leak?
Signs of a slab leak include the sound of running water when everything is off, warm or wet spots on the floor, cracks in the foundation, and an unexplained increase in your water bill. You may also notice a drop in water pressure or mold growth near baseboards.
How do you find a leak without tearing up the floor?
Leaks are located using electronic listening devices and thermal imaging cameras that detect moisture and sound beneath the slab. Once the exact spot is identified, only a small section of flooring is removed to access and repair the damaged pipe.
What causes slab leaks in Wichita Falls homes?
Slab leaks are often caused by shifting foundations, soil movement, corrosion in copper pipes, and water chemistry that wears down pipe walls over time. Older homes with original plumbing are especially susceptible.
How long does a leak repair take?
Most leak repairs are completed in a few hours once the leak is located. Slab leak repairs may take longer depending on the depth of the pipe and the flooring material that needs to be removed and replaced.
When should I call for leak detection?
You should call for leak detection as soon as you notice signs of water loss, wet spots, or rising utility bills. Early detection limits structural damage, prevents mold growth, and reduces repair costs.
