Unexplained wet spots, hissing under mulch, low zone pressure, or a sudden water-bill spike often point to lateral or mainline leaks. We locate, excavate, and repair PVC and poly lines with pressure testing before backfill.
Common Pipe & Lateral Leak Repair problems we fix
- Soggy areas when the system is off
- Low pressure or weak heads on one zone
- Visible spray from a break under mulch
- Erosion near sidewalks or foundations
- Meter spinning with all zones off (mainline)
Parts & systems we service
- Lateral line repairs and coupling
- Mainline breaks and fittings
- Swing joint and riser leak repair
- Poly-to-PVC transitions
- Pressure testing after repair
How our service visit works
- Isolate the zone or main and confirm leak behavior.
- Locate the break with visual cues, probing, and systematic pressurization.
- Excavate carefully around hardscape and plant roots.
- Repair, test, backfill, and restore surface as practical.
Houston-specific notes
Expanding clay and tree roots are major leak drivers from Memorial to The Woodlands. Freeze-exposed risers and poorly bedded fittings from original installs also fail frequently.

Pipe & Lateral Leak Repair FAQs
Will you find the leak without tearing up the whole yard?
We minimize excavation by isolating zones and reading surface clues. Some deep mainline leaks still require trenches — we keep cuts as targeted as possible.
