Simply Leak Detection
Company Overview
Simply Leak Detection Services specializes in detecting hidden water line problems. No matter where it lies concealed within the home and business. Our team can accurately identify leaks beneath soil, aggregate, concrete surfaces, or slab foundations without causing disruption to your existing environment.
Started in Portland in 2010, Simply Leak Detection shifted to Washington and the Kirkland area in 2013. We are a small team. Emily manages customer service and appointments, while my colleague Kane and myself operate in the outdoors, helping customers in locating concealed water line problems. Our priority is to ensure accuracy in ensuring that the locates are accurate. Water line locations can be confirmed in several methods without needing to excavate your land. It’s a joy to connect with new clients in detecting subsurface water pipe issues. For a lot of people, finding a hidden leak is as much a challenge as the tools used to detect the problem. Discussing this method gives customers a true feeling of confidence that the issue is located properly. My colleague Kane and I take pride in discussing our discoveries, which instills a sense of assurance to our clients when taking the next steps to address the problem.
I truly enjoy assisting homeowners and builders in detecting subsurface water line concerns.
Being a homeowner myself, I take leak detection very seriously and recognize the increased costs of replacement if a leak is not successfully detected.
My perspective on client relations can be summed up in a concise thought; “How would I act if I were in the position of me?”
From the beginning Simply Leak Detection, I have regularly focused on the most advanced technologies and devices from leading brands. Although Leak Detection is my top focus, I also provide services in plastic pipe locating, private utility locating, and ground fault detection.
Should you suspect you have a hidden underground pipe and require help in locating it, reach out to me. I’d love to help you.
Sincerely, Michael

Young K.I saw a spike in the water bill that led me to believe that there was a potential water leak somewhere. I searched for some obvious spots both indoor and outdoor but couldn't find anything. I ended up calling a local plumbing company ""At Your Service"" for help and they referred Simply Leak Detection service.
I was able to arrange for Michael to come out for the inspection fairly quickly. When he arrived, he quickly went to work to find the leak in about an hour or so. Michael offered me to listen to his device for the water leak sound coming from the pipe (it sounded like air coming out from the water, like bubbling, which should have been quiet.)
I scheduled plumbing service from ""At Your Service"" again for a repair and they found the water leak on the spot where Michael sprayed a giant ""X"" mark on it. The repair is done, called the public utility service for a leak adjustment, and I am very happy and impressed with Michael's service and knowledge from his years of experience.
Highly recommended.
After speaking with the owner Mike on the phone to set up an appointment and payment through a trust fund which would have been paid even before the detection service was performed I decided to go with another company because the dump my dog took in the yard this morning has better customer service skills than him. Not my loss, plenty of other leak detection companies out there. FYM
Tony A.Pros: Responsive; reliable; Kane did a good job, provided friendly customer service, and worked quickly to locate the leak using nitrogen/hydrogen/technology; appreciated how Kane explained what he was doing in an easily understandable way; would hire again
Cons: Paid $440, which was on par with other leak detection services but still expensive/overpriced overall; have heard of other companies charging around $325
Unbelievable rip off! Charges $550 just to come out and examine the problem. I couldn't even believe it at first. What a shyster!!
Mia A.Mike found our leak quickly. Was professional and friendly and was clear on the cost up front which I appreciate. Came on time. Great communication. I would call him again if needed. Two thumbs up
Jaceon B.I received a letter from the water company that said we had a leak. I went and checked my water meter and the leak indicator was spinning fast. I checked all the fittings inside and outside the house. I went and turned off the water to the hot water heater, and the leak indicator slowed and almost stopped. I wasn't sure if it was the water heater and it need to be replaced or if the leak is from the line that runs after the water heater. Tim from I Need a Plumber got ahold of me. He did a phone consultation, then let me know that I should first get a leak detection person to come out first to help pinpoint where the leak was. Tim gave me Mike as a recommendation and I'm glad he did. Mike was able to find my leak in the slab in my kitchen under my stove in a 2 ft x 2 ft area. Mike had great customer service skills, he kept us informed throughout the process. He used many tools and listening devices to make sure he was as accurate as possible. I would definitely recommend Mike to anyone that needs his services.
Mike was fantastic! He accurately located a water line leak that we had become aware of because of an unusually high water bill. He was professional and transparent in his work and communication, making me feel comfortable as the homeowner throughout the process from scheduling to performing the leak location service. I'd highly recommend Simply Leak to anyone in need of these services.

Amy W.Overall very knowledgeable, accurate, friendly, and patient. Performed the necessary tests to quickly identify where the leak on our property was and answered all of our questions along the way. Gave recommendations for follow-up services required. Would definitely recommend!
Chris S.I have had Mike help me on a couple dozen jobs over the last couple years. He gets results and treats his customers like they are family friends. I use him almost exclusively now after having poor experiences with other locate companies.
Mike was spot-on in finding our leak. He was also very informative in helping us through the process of getting it repaired and getting reimbursed through the City of Lacey. Thanks Mike!
