Empire Leak Detection
Company Overview
Identifying leaks needs advanced tools like infrared imaging, electronic sound tracing, pipe locators, inert gas technology, old-fashioned compressed air locators, among others. Importantly, our approaches are non-destructive; we refrain from tearing into your floors, wall structures, or landscaping to detect your plumbing issue.
Initially, we operated as a business for only contractors. After many years of partnership with many major and independent plumbing companies, we identified a critical technological gap in the leak finding sector in the Sacramento area and decided to provide our services to the public.
John, who leads this operation, started the plumbing journey in the year 2005. John's understanding of plumbing is a great combination for detecting leaks.

Recommended Customer Reviews

Prompt response and got me an appt right away! John found the problem/leak pretty fast. He didn't waste time upon arriving. I couldn't be happier with his service, and I highly recommend the company! I will definitely be calling again if I ever need their service. Thank you.

John was really quick to respond, he gave me a price quote upfront, detected the sources of our leaks and recommended a roofer to help repair. He was friendly, he explained each step as he went along, documented everything and sent me the documentation. Highly recommend!

John with Empire Leak Detection was amazing! Quick to respond, quick to find the leak! Professional, timely and very detail oriented. He drove out of his way to get to us and we were super appreciative. It was an outside leak for us that affected our well and pump. He even offered up referrals to get it serviced. Thank you John!

Had a leak in the bathroom and John came out detected the leak right away and saved us 1000s in water damage. So professional

We had an interior leak in our two story house over the holidays. There had been a previous leak in the same area caused by a freezing a/c coil in the attic, which ran down the plumbing lines into the first floor. This time, it appeared be a leak somewhere in the water or drain lines. John's detection equipment was out for repair, but he gave us some advice on how to isolate the leak, as well as a referral to a responsible, responsive plumber in our area. We were able to track it down quickly and get the plumber out to repair our copper piping. Really appreciate John's friendly, free advice and the referral.

Empire Leak Detection was great. We had a visit from the city water guy telling us we had a leak on our property, somewhere. We have over 300 feet between our house and the street. John was great. Showed up on time. Very knowledgeable. Checked our pipes three different ways with a bunch of different technology I haven't seen before. He was able to narrow down the location of the leak so we were able to address it without guessing. I highly recommend Empire Leak Detection especially John. He went above and beyond.
