What We Fix

Comprehensive Leak Detection & Repair Services

From pinhole leaks to major water line failures — we handle every type of residential and commercial water leak in the Chicago metro.

Hidden Leak Detection

Using acoustic sensors, thermal imaging, and pressure testing we locate leaks inside walls, under slabs, and beneath floors without tearing up your property unnecessarily.

Slab & Foundation Leak Repair

Slab leaks left unattended cause major structural damage. We identify the break point and complete targeted slab repairs to prevent foundation erosion and floor damage.

Water Main & Supply Line Leaks

Sudden spikes in your water bill often signal a main line leak. Our team locates and repairs water main breaks and underground supply line failures with minimal excavation.

Appliance & Fixture Leak Repair

Dishwashers, washing machines, water heaters, and toilets can cause significant water damage. We diagnose and repair appliance-related leaks before they escalate.

Insurance Claim Support

We prepare Xactimate-compatible documentation and work directly with your insurer to maximize your claim. See our insurance claim support service.

FAQ

Common Questions About Water Leak Detection & Repair

Answers to the questions Chicago-area homeowners ask us most often.

Common signs of a hidden water leak include an unexplained increase in your water bill, the sound of running water when all fixtures are off, damp or discolored walls and ceilings, mold or musty odors, warm spots on the floor (possible slab leak), and low water pressure. If you notice any of these signs, call Alta Property Services at (630) 461-9229 for same-day professional leak detection in the Chicago area.
The cost depends on the type, severity, and location of the leak. Basic pipe repairs start at a few hundred dollars, while slab leak detection and repair or extensive water damage restoration can range into the thousands. Alta Property Services offers free, no-obligation estimates so you know the full scope before any work begins. Many water leak repairs are also covered by homeowners insurance — we provide full documentation to support your claim.
Yes. Alta Property Services provides 24/7 emergency water leak detection and repair throughout DuPage County, Cook County, and the surrounding Chicago suburbs. We dispatch certified technicians around the clock — including weekends and holidays — with typical response times of 60 minutes or less. Call (630) 461-9229 for immediate emergency service.
Most standard homeowners insurance policies cover sudden, accidental water damage — such as a burst pipe — but may exclude slow leaks that developed over time due to neglect. Alta Property Services works directly with your insurance carrier, prepares Xactimate estimates, and documents all damage to give you the strongest possible claim. Visit our insurance claim support page for more details.
Our technicians use a combination of acoustic listening devices (to detect the sound of water escaping a pipe), thermal imaging cameras (to identify temperature differences caused by moisture), pressure testing, and electronic moisture meters. These non-invasive techniques allow us to pinpoint the exact leak location before opening any walls or concrete — minimizing disruption and repair costs.
Absolutely. Alta Property Services is a full-service restoration and construction company. Once the leak is repaired, our crews handle drywall repair, flooring replacement, painting, structural reconstruction, and mold remediation as needed.
