Gene's Plumbing handles leak detection across Dunedin and the surrounding area — licensed, insured and available for emergencies.
The point of leak detection in Dunedin is to open up one square foot instead of twenty. Locating precisely costs less than the demolition you avoid by doing it.
Every house handles leak detection a little differently depending on its age, and Dunedin has plenty of both old and new. The fitting, the pipe material and the way the last plumber left it all change what the right repair is.
That is why the Dunedin truck carries parts for more than one era of plumbing. The leak detection job gets finished on the first visit wherever it can be, because a second trip costs you a day and costs us the trust.
What happens from the first call to the final test.
Tell us what you are seeing, hearing or smelling. If water is actively running into the house, you get walked to your main shutoff before anything else is discussed.
The diagnosis gets shown to you, on a camera screen or a gauge face, so the price that follows has something visible behind it.
The quote covers parts, labour and haul-away, so the invoice at the end is the number you already agreed to.
The repair gets made with proper materials, pressure tested where the job allows, and checked in front of you before anything is closed back up.
The questions homeowners ask about this one.
It depends on what the diagnosis turns up, which is why you get a firm price for your leak detection job in Dunedin before any work starts rather than an hourly rate that runs while you wait.
You get a straight answer on that. Plenty of Dunedin customers are told their leak detection situation can reasonably wait a season, and plenty are told it cannot. The diagnosis decides it, not the sales value.
Yes. leak detection in Dunedin is done by a licensed, insured plumbing contractor who pulls whatever permits your municipality requires, and the licence number is on your invoice.
Anything actively leaking or backing up is treated as same-day in Dunedin. Scheduled leak detection work is usually booked within two or three business days.
Feedback from customers who had this work done.
"Burst pipe in the crawlspace in January. He had the main off and the section cut out before I finished explaining. Pressure tested it in front of me before he closed it up."
"Our water smelled like sulfur since we moved in. They tested it instead of guessing, put in the right filtration, and the smell was gone the same day."
"Old cast iron stack was leaking behind the wall. They cut it out and put in new, and were careful about dust with plastic and a fan. That mattered with a baby in the house."
