Leak Detection Services in Selma, TX
Find It Fast. Fix It Right.
Not every leak shows up as a puddle on the floor. A lot of them are sneaky—dripping behind a wall, under the slab, or in a spot you’d never think to check—quietly chewing up drywall, warping floors, and nudging your water bill higher every month.
​
That’s what we’re here for.
​
At Emergency Plumber LLC, we help homeowners and businesses across Selma, TX track down hidden leaks before they turn into full-on headaches. If something feels “off” (your bill suddenly jumped, you’re noticing random damp spots, or your place has that musty smell that won’t go away), it’s worth getting it checked sooner rather than later.
How We Find Leaks
(Without Ripping Your House Apart)
We don’t walk in and start cutting into walls hoping to get lucky. We follow a real process.
​
First, we run a pressure test to see if your plumbing system is losing water. If the pressure drops while everything is turned off, that’s our first big clue that something is leaking where it shouldn’t.
​
From there, we narrow things down using tools that help us pinpoint the problem instead of just “searching” for it:
-
We use line-tracing equipment to map where your water lines actually run.
-
We use acoustic listening tools to pick up the faint sound of water escaping inside walls, floors, or underground.
-
When it helps, we’ll introduce safe air pressure into the line to make the leak easier to hear and locate.
The goal is simple: find it accurately, keep the mess minimal, and fix it right the first time.

Why Modern Leak Detection Beats Old-School Guessing

5 Signs You Might Have a Hidden Leak in Selma
If any of these sound familiar, your plumbing may be trying to wave a red flag:
​​
-
Water Stains on Ceilings or Walls - Brown spots, bubbling paint, or sagging drywall usually mean water is collecting where it shouldn’t.
​
-
Musty or Moldy Odors - If parts of the house smell damp even when everything looks dry, moisture might be hiding behind walls or under flooring.
​
-
Cracks in the Drywall - Slow leaks can cause materials to swell, shift, and crack over time—especially around bathrooms, kitchens, and utility rooms.
​
-
The Water Meter Test - Turn off everything in the house. If your meter is still moving, there’s a strong chance you’ve got a leak somewhere in the system.
​​
-
A Sudden Spike in Your Water Bill - If your routine hasn’t changed but your bill has, water may be escaping quietly where you can’t see it.
