A clear, professional approach to leak detection — tailored to your Galax property.
Our Galax technician evaluates the evidence — water bill spikes, damp spots, meter behavior, and visible damage — to form an initial hypothesis about the leak type and location.
Pipe Masters uses advanced leak detection technology at your Galax property. We listen for leak sounds through acoustic sensors, detect temperature anomalies with thermal cameras, and verify locations with electronic equipment.
Once the leak is located, we confirm the finding and present repair options. Depending on the location and severity, options may include spot repair, section replacement, pipe rerouting, or epoxy lining.
Our Galax plumber executes the repair and confirms success with a pressure test of the repaired section. We verify no additional leaks exist in connected lines before restoring full water pressure.

Our reputation is built on results. Here is what our customers have to say.
"Hired them to install a new shower system during our master bath renovation. They moved the supply lines, set the new valve, and added a rain head. The tile guy said the rough-in was perfect."
"Had Pipe Masters install a backflow preventer after our city sent a compliance notice. They handled the install and the testing certification in one visit. Passed inspection on the first try."
"Pipe Masters snaked our main sewer line and ran a camera through it afterward to show us the condition. Turns out tree roots were the problem. They recommended a cleanout access point and installed it the next week."
