Leak Detection & Repair in Pittsburgh
Professional leak detection & repair services for Pittsburgh and surrounding communities.
Hidden leaks are a serious concern in Pittsburgh's older housing stock. Galvanized pipes corrode from the inside, copper develops pinhole leaks, and underground water lines deteriorate over decades. Astrada Services uses advanced leak detection technology to find hidden leaks in Pittsburgh homes without tearing apart your walls or floors.
If you live in a Pittsburgh home built before 1960, your water supply line may be galvanized or even lead. A leak on these lines is often a sign it's time for a full replacement.

Frequently Asked Questions
Signs include an unexplained increase in your water bill, the sound of running water when nothing is on, damp spots on walls or floors, musty odors, or your water meter spinning when all fixtures are off. If you notice any of these, call us for a leak detection inspection.
Usually not. We use non-invasive technology including acoustic listening devices and thermal imaging cameras that can pinpoint leaks behind walls and under floors without demolition. We only open up the area directly around the leak for repair.
Absolutely. A small leak dripping just once per second wastes over 3,000 gallons per year. Hidden leaks behind walls promote mold growth that can affect your family's health and cause structural wood rot. Early detection saves thousands in repair costs.
