What Causes Leaks — and How We Fix Them in Greenbrae

In Greenbrae, small leaks rarely stay small. A pinhole in a copper line can soak drywall, warp flooring, and
invite mold long before a puddle appears. Our licensed team uses non‑invasive diagnostics to find the source
quickly and repair it cleanly.

Hillside lots and longer plumbing runs can mask leaks until surfaces show damage.

Remodeled kitchens and baths deserve shut‑offs that actually shut off — we test every valve.

Watch for these warning signs:

- Unexplained spikes on your water bill despite normal use.

- Water meter movement even when all fixtures are closed.

- Warm spots on floors or damp carpet over slab areas.

- Stains on ceilings or bubbling paint along walls.

- Efflorescence or damp lines on foundation walls.

Why leaks happen:

- Worn angle stops, supply lines, and toilet fill valves.

- Old galvanized piping rusting from the inside out.

- Aging copper with pinhole corrosion from water chemistry.

- Slab movement and soil conditions stressing buried pipes.

Our step‑by‑step approach:

Step 1: Restore finishes neatly and verify with a final pressure test.

Step 2: Isolate lines to narrow the suspect branch without opening walls.

Step 3: Acoustic listen and thermal scan to triangulate the leak position.

Step 4: Open a small access point and make a clean, permanent repair.

Step 5: Confirm with pressure testing or tracer gas for small, silent leaks.

Prevention plan for peace of mind:

- Keep water pressure in spec with a functional pressure‑reducing valve (PRV).

- Replace old angle stops and braided supplies proactively.

- Know where your main shut‑off is and make sure it turns easily.

- Schedule an annual whole‑home plumbing check to catch small issues early.
