Water Leak in Your House?

Every minute counts with water damage. We provide emergency leak detection and pipe repair 24/7 across the Treasure Valley.

A water leak in your house, whether it's water on the floor, a damp ceiling, or a pipe you can hear but can't see, can cause thousands of dollars in damage if it isn't addressed quickly. Revolution Plumbing handles emergency leak detection and pipe repair throughout the Treasure Valley for every pipe type: copper, PEX, galvanized, and PVC.

Common Symptoms

Visible water on floors, walls, or ceiling
Sound of running water when everything is off
Unexplained increase in water bill
Damp patches, peeling paint, or warped flooring
Musty or moldy smell
Low water pressure
Water stains spreading on drywall

What Causes This Problem

Most household water leaks come from one of a few sources: corroded or aging pipes (especially galvanized), high water pressure stressing fittings, pipe joint failure, freeze-thaw damage, pinhole leaks in copper, deteriorated supply line connections to toilets and faucets, failed water heater tanks, and tree root damage to underground lines.

What You Should Do

Turn off the main water shut-off valve immediately to stop the flow. If the leak is near electrical outlets or panels, turn off the breaker too. Move furniture and valuables away from the affected area, and mop up standing water to limit damage. Then call Revolution Plumbing. We're available 24/7 for emergency leak detection and repair, and we fix leaks permanently, not just patch them.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Water leaks can cause structural damage, mold growth, and foundation problems if not addressed quickly. Turn off your water and call us immediately.

Small leaks can often be repaired with a section replacement. However, if the pipe is corroded throughout or there are multiple leaks, repiping that section or the whole house may be more cost-effective.

We cut a small access opening in the drywall, repair or replace the leaking section of pipe, test the repair, and then the access hole can be patched by a drywall contractor or handyman.

Water under your house is often caused by a leaking water line in the crawlspace, an underground water service issue, a broken drain or sewer line, or groundwater intrusion. A professional inspection can pinpoint the source.

Leak repair costs vary based on the location and severity. Simple accessible pipe repairs may start around $200, while more involved repairs cost more depending on access, materials, and the extent of the damage. We provide upfront pricing after diagnosis.
