Taking a proactive approach to the health of your pipes can save you hundreds and even thousands of dollars in repairs.  Having your plumbing annually inspected by the professionals at the Leak Doctor is a great way to get started.

Many homeowners think all plumbing and leak detection companies are all the same, but technology has come a long way! Pipes damage occurs from natural deterioration with age, soil movement, faulty installation, root infiltration and animals.  Having these issues repaired by a professional using the latest technology means minimum disruption (the floors and yard won't be torn up) and you won't have to deal with an even bigger problem later!
