Leak Repair

From pinhole drips to major pipe failures — quoted in writing before any work starts.

What we do

Leak Repair in Charlotte.

Once we've located a leak, we repair it the right way — copper, PEX, galvanized, or PVC, supply or drain side. Every repair is done with code-compliant materials, pressure-tested before we close the wall, and backed by our one-year workmanship warranty.

01

Pinhole and pitting repair

Common in older copper systems. We replace the affected section with a modern coupling and inspect adjacent runs for early signs of failure.

02

Major pipe replacement

Section-by-section replacement when a single repair won't hold. We quote both options — patch vs replace — and let you choose with the costs in writing.

03

Slab leak repair

Routing decisions matter — sometimes it's better to abandon the slab line and re-route through walls. We explain the trade-off and recommend based on your specific layout.
