Live dispatcher available nowFive signs there's a leak you can't see
In a Gilbert home, hidden leaks often go unnoticed for months — until the water bill spikes or a wet spot appears in a ceiling. Watch for:
-
Water bill jumps for no reason
A leak as small as a pinhole can waste hundreds of gallons a day.
-
Wet spots, warm spots, or discolored flooring
Slab leaks often heat the floor in one specific area — a tell-tale sign.
-
Sound of running water when nothing is on
Especially audible at night when the house is quiet.
-
Mildew smell in a closet, garage, or wall
Even when the area looks dry — moisture is somewhere behind the surface.
-
Drop in water pressure at multiple fixtures
Often means water is escaping somewhere upstream of your faucets.

Any of these sound familiar?

What we handle
Four leak categories cover almost every residential job we see. Here's how we find and fix each one.
Slab leaks
Gilbert homes built on concrete slabs (most homes after 1960) are vulnerable to slab leaks — pipes embedded in or under the slab can corrode or shift. Common in homes with copper supply lines and aggressive Gilbert water chemistry.
We locate slab leaks using:
- Acoustic listening equipment
- Thermal imaging
- Pressure isolation testing
Once located, we discuss repair options: pinhole patch, reroute the affected line, or partial repipe — depending on what makes sense for the home and the long-term cost.
Pipe leaks (visible or hidden)
Behind walls, in attics, in crawl spaces. We find them and fix them — patching, replacing the affected section, or repiping a section if it's the smarter long-term call.
Fixture & supply line leaks
Slow leaks under sinks, behind toilets, at hose bibs, or in shower valves. Often quick fixes that prevent expensive cabinet and floor damage down the road.
Sewer line leaks
Different from supply leaks — these involve drain water leaking into the ground, often near the foundation. Symptoms include mushy spots in the yard, sewage odor outside, or sinking patches of lawn.
Not sure which you have?
Describe what you're seeing and we'll tell you on the phone whether it sounds like a slab, supply, or sewer issue — before you schedule anything. Call 888-321-0797.
Why Gilbert homeowners trust Pop & Go for leak work
Leak work rewards patience and the right equipment. Here's what sets us apart from the cut-and-guess crowd.
We find the leak before we cut anything
Other companies guess and start cutting drywall. We invest in proper detection equipment so the repair is precise — and the opening as small as possible.
Multiple repair paths, honest pros and cons
For slab leaks especially, you should hear at least two repair approaches with honest tradeoffs. We give you that. Some companies only sell a full repipe.
Detection cost & repair quote — both before any work
You'll know what the inspection costs before we drive out, and what the repair costs before we lift a tool.
Documentation for your adjuster
If you're filing a homeowner's claim, we provide the documentation your adjuster needs — photos, written diagnosis, repair scope.
Across the Valley of the Sun
We dispatch leak detection crews across Gilbert daily, including:
What to expect from a Pop & Go leak inspection
No mystery. Here's the exact process from when we knock on the door to when we hand you a quote.
Walk-through
We look at where you've noticed signs (wet spots, bills, sounds). We check meter activity and identify likely zones.
Isolation testing
We close off sections of the system and watch for pressure drops or meter movement, narrowing down where the leak is.
Detection equipment
Acoustic and thermal tools to pinpoint the exact location — without cutting drywall blindly.
Locate marking
We mark the leak location physically so any repair work is precise — smallest possible opening.
Repair quote
Up-front, with multiple options when applicable (patch vs. reroute vs. partial repipe).
Repair (same day when possible)
Often we can repair on the same visit as detection. Larger reroutes or repipes may take 1–3 days.
Honest pricing
No coupon-bait pricing, no surprises after the fact.
Flat-rate, quoted on the phone
Leak detection is typically a flat-rate service. We tell you the price on the phone before scheduling — and the fee is often credited toward the repair if you proceed with us.
Quoted up-front, every time
Repair pricing depends on the leak's location, severity, and the repair approach (patch, reroute, repipe). We quote every repair up front before starting — and offer multiple options when they apply.
We can often coordinate documentation with your homeowner's insurance for water damage claims.
0% APR up to 48 months on qualifying repair work. Approved in minutes during the quote.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does leak detection cost in Gilbert?
Leak detection is typically a flat fee that we quote on the phone before scheduling. The fee is often credited toward the repair if you proceed with us.
Can you find a leak without breaking walls?
In most cases, yes. We use acoustic and thermal equipment to pinpoint leaks before cutting anything. The goal is the smallest possible repair opening.
How serious are slab leaks?
Serious. Untreated slab leaks can damage flooring, foundations, and cause mold. They also waste enormous amounts of water (and money). The good news is most slab leaks are repairable without excavating the whole slab.
Will my insurance cover the leak?
Most homeowner's policies cover damage from a sudden leak, but not the cost to repair the pipe itself. We can provide documentation for your adjuster.
Can you fix a slab leak the same day you find it?
Often, yes — particularly if a pinhole patch or short reroute is the right repair. Larger reroutes or repipes may take 1–3 days.
What's the difference between a reroute and a repipe?
A reroute abandons the leaking section and runs a new line through accessible space (attic, walls, etc.). A repipe replaces all (or a major portion) of the supply lines. Reroutes are faster and cheaper; repipes are a permanent solution if the rest of the pipe is also failing.
