A water bill that jumps for no reason, a meter that moves with every tap off, or a warm patch on the floor all point to a hidden leak. BluePoint traces the leak to its source across the Santa Clarita Valley before anything is opened up, then gives you a written price for the repair. We are open Monday to Saturday, 6 AM to 5 PM.
When to call us about leak detection
Tap any sign below for what it usually means.
The most common first sign. Water is escaping somewhere you cannot see.
Turn off every tap and appliance, then watch the meter. If it still moves, there is a leak.
Often a hot water line leaking under the slab. Common in valley homes built on concrete.
Hearing water in a wall or under the floor when nothing is on is a leak you should not wait on.
Water tracks along framing, so the stain is often some distance from the actual leak.
Slow leaks inside walls feed mould long before they show as a stain.
A buried supply line between the meter and the house may have failed.
A leak on the hot side keeps the heater refilling and reheating.
Meter still turning with every tap off? Tell us what you are seeing and we will tell you how urgent it is.

What affects the price
Leak work is two jobs: finding it and fixing it. We tell you the cost of tracing the leak before we start, then give you a written price for the repair once we know where it is and what it involves.
| Where the leak is | Inside a wall is simpler than under a slab |
|---|---|
| Hot or cold line | Hot water leaks under slabs are the most common and the hardest to reach |
| Repair method | Spot repair, or rerouting the line through the walls or attic |
| Pipe condition | One failed joint, or pipe that is failing throughout |
| Water damage | Drying and patching add to the job |

Local factors in the Santa Clarita Valley
Many homes in the valley are built on concrete slabs with copper supply lines running underneath. Over time, hard water and movement in the ground wear through that pipe, and the leak shows up as a warm floor, a high bill, or the sound of water with nothing running.
When one slab leak turns into a second or third, patching the slab each time stops making sense. Rerouting the line through the walls or attic is often the better repair, and we explain both options before you choose.

Common Questions
Who does leak detection in Santa Clarita?
BluePoint Plumbing traces and repairs hidden water leaks across the Santa Clarita Valley, including slab leaks and leaks inside walls. The company holds California contractor licence 1140216, is run by owner Douglas Parker, and is open Monday to Saturday, 6 AM to 5 PM.
How do I know if I have a hidden water leak?
Turn off every tap and water-using appliance, then check the water meter. If it still moves, water is escaping somewhere. A sudden jump in the water bill, a warm spot on the floor, a musty smell, or the sound of running water are the other common signs.
What is a slab leak?
A slab leak is a leak in a water line running under the concrete slab a house sits on. It often shows as a warm patch on the floor, a high water bill, or the water heater running constantly. It can be repaired at the spot or by rerouting the line.
Should I fix a slab leak or reroute the pipe?
One leak in otherwise sound pipe is usually repaired at the spot. If the pipe has leaked before, or is worn throughout, rerouting the line through the walls or attic often costs less over time than opening the slab again.
Frequently asked questions
Turn off every tap, the dishwasher, the washing machine, and the irrigation, then look at the water meter. Most meters have a small dial or triangle that spins when water is flowing. If it moves with everything off, you have a leak somewhere.
Not always. If the leak is in one spot on otherwise sound pipe, we open a small section to repair it. If the pipe is failing in more than one place, rerouting the line through the walls or attic avoids the slab altogether.
Usually more urgent than it looks. A slow leak inside a wall or under a floor does damage you cannot see, feeds mould, and adds to every water bill until it is fixed. If you can hear water running, call sooner rather than later.
We tell you the cost of tracing the leak before we start. Once we know where it is, you get a written price for the repair, so you decide with the number in front of you.
That depends on your policy. Many policies treat the water damage and the pipe repair differently. We document what we find and what we repair, which helps if you make a claim.
