Recommended Customer Reviews

I can't say enough good things about Elite. I would give them more than five stars if I could. After spending the better part of a week working with my warranty company to get plumbers and leak detection companies out to my house I finally took the initiative to contact Elite, who I found online. I called Brent and left a message early Saturday morning and he returned my phone call within an hour or two. I scheduled an appointment for Elite to inspect my house the following Monday. Jai showed up on time and immediately located the leak behind the drywall adjacent to the washer and dryer nook downstairs. He went straight to work and finished the repair in about an hour. The cost was very reasonable. I highly recommend Elite for any plumbing and/or leak detection issues you may have.

This company saved me countless amounts in the end. They were able to find a leak in the foundation no one else could and then gave me multiple options for remedy from complete foundational tear up to simple repiping.

This company was great. It all started with a return phone call from the owner about 10 minutes after I left a message. We discussed the problem I was having and he was honest to say that he may not be the right company as he could not come out for a few days. I informed him that I had the water off where the leak was believed to be and we discussed plan for his partner to come out on his next available day. The planned appointment time was between 10 and 12. I was given a call about 30 minutes before that they were on the way and a few minutes before 10 they were at the house. We spent some time discussing it, they used their tools and looked at all the areas and places that needed inspection. A great company with integrity.

Professional, prompt, and effective. Highly recommend. Impressive how they were able to identify the leak source.

They were on time and very courteous and professional. They diagnosed the problem and had another technician come and fix it the very same day.

Thank you Elite leak detection!
Leaving my home for work I noticed wet pavers in my driveway. After a few hours, hoping it would dry, it was still a wet area. I found Elite leak detector and reached out to them. Brent answered all my questions and concerns and had someone available within two hours. Jai showed up and found the leak, and gave me a quote over the phone, as I was at work. I asked him to wait while I get back to him. After speaking with my wife and discussing the urgency, we allowed Jai to take care of the leak. Jai spent hours removing pavers in a professional manner and kept the are clean while working. Jai, I cannot thank you enough for being so polite and so diligent in the work you performed at our home! Leak repaired! Thank you Elite leak detection

Called Elite Leak detection after hearing water running in my house with no obvious cause.. They found the leak in my pipes under the house slab and determined how to fix the problem.
I found Brent at Elite very honest and forthcoming with details about my plumbing problem. No fishy explanations that made a person feel they were being taken for a ride. I really appreciated that Elite seemed very honest and reliable.
I would absolutely recommend them to a friend.

These guys are great! I highly recommend.
Very professional. Great communication and reasonable.
The promptly found the leak and charged a reasonable price for the repair.
A pleasure to do business with.

Showed up on time..early in fact. Jai is very nice and spent a long time testing areas and explaining everything to me. They aren't able to fix my problem because I need the whole house re plumbed but he explained a lot about the process so that when I talk to plumbers who specialize in re plumbing I'll understand what they're doing
I recommend Elite to anyone who has a leak.

Had received a very high water bill. Called Elite Leak Detection. Spoke with Brent. He was able to come out the very next day. Brent is very knowledgeable and professional. Brent did a very detailed inspection. He found my problem. Great service. Thank you Brent.
