Huntsville, AL Water Leak Detection and Repair Specialists

Most of the leaks we find were never visible. They show up as a water bill that doubled, a closet that smells damp, or the faint sound of water moving through a wall at midnight. Corbin’s Air, Water & Power Solutions, Inc has traced those problems for North Alabama families since 1935, and our Huntsville office on Whitesburg Drive dispatches technicians equipped for water leak detection that finds the source before a single tile comes up. We cover Madison County, the Madison and Hampton Cove side of the metro, and the communities stretching toward Lake Guntersville. Someone answers the phone live at any hour, estimates are free, our technicians are licensed and insured, and we hold a BBB membership you are welcome to verify first.

Curious what else our licensed plumbers handle once the leak is located? The Plumbing page covers repairs, repiping, and fixture work available throughout the Greater Huntsville area from the same live-answered phone line.

Warning Signs Of A Hidden Water Leak In A Huntsville Home

A pressurized line can weep for months behind finished surfaces. By the time you see a stain, the framing has usually been wet a while, so the early clues matter.

Call us when you notice:

• A water bill that jumped with no change in the household
• Damp carpet, buckling flooring or a warm patch over a slab
• Running water sounds with every fixture and appliance shut off
• Musty odor or mildew along baseboards and inside closets

Water bill jumped, but nothing changed in the household

Utility billing is the earliest reliable signal of a hidden water leak. If a high water bill leak appears with no guests, no new irrigation, and no filled pool, the water is going somewhere unintended. We compare the meter reading against actual fixture use to confirm the loss before quoting any repair.

Warm spots, damp carpet or buckling flooring over a slab

Slab leak detection calls often begin with a homeowner in a Jones Valley or Blossomwood ranch noticing one warm strip of floor near a hallway. That is a hot supply line under the concrete losing water. Left alone, an under-slab pipe leak can undermine soil and lift flooring.

Musty smell and mildew in closets and baseboards

Humidity here runs high from May into September, so a small leak has ideal conditions for mold. A closet on a shared plumbing wall that smells earthy is worth a look even when the drywall still appears dry.
