About Our Leak Detection in Cedar Park

Cedar Park homeowners deal with a unique set of plumbing challenges. Established neighborhoods off 1431 and Whitestone have homes that are now 15 to 20 years old — old enough for original plumbing to start showing wear, especially under the Hill Country's rocky soil and shifting ground. Slab leaks, pinhole leaks in copper lines, and slow drips hiding inside walls are all common in this age range. Cold is on the Right has the tools to find them without tearing apart your home.

Newer developments near Lakeline and the 183A corridor bring their own concerns — fast construction timelines sometimes mean fittings that weren't seated perfectly or supply lines that develop leaks within the first few years. If your water bill has crept up or you've noticed any soft spots, discoloration, or running water sounds you can't explain, don't wait. Our licensed plumbers serve Cedar Park with upfront pricing and no surprise fees. Call (512) 271-2172 to schedule your inspection.

Leak Detection Services We Provide in Cedar Park

Slab Leak Detection

Cedar Park's clay-heavy and rocky soils can shift with seasonal moisture changes, putting real stress on the pipes running beneath your foundation. Slab leaks often go undetected for months, silently eroding your foundation and driving up your water bill. We use electronic detection and pressure testing to pinpoint the exact location without unnecessary concrete removal.

Underground Pipe Leak Detection

Soggy patches in your lawn or unexplained wet spots in your yard are a common sign of a leaking underground supply or sewer line. In Cedar Park's established neighborhoods, older irrigation and main water lines can corrode or crack under root pressure or soil movement. We use non-invasive locating equipment to trace the leak before any digging begins.

Wall and Ceiling Leak Detection

Leaks hiding inside walls or above ceilings are especially common in Cedar Park homes built in the early 2000s, where copper supply lines are reaching the age where pinhole corrosion becomes a real risk. Left alone, these leaks fuel mold growth and rot out framing. We use thermal imaging and moisture meters to find the source without removing drywall unnecessarily.

Kitchen and Bathroom Leak Detection

High-use areas like kitchens and bathrooms take a beating in Cedar Park's family-heavy neighborhoods, where multiple people are running water throughout the day. Slow drips under sinks, leaking supply lines behind toilets, and failing shower pan seals are easy to miss until the damage is visible. We trace the exact source and give you clear repair options before any work begins.

Learn More

Water Line Leak Detection

Your main water line runs from the street meter to your home and is under constant pressure. In Cedar Park, tree roots from mature landscaping in older neighborhoods can crush or infiltrate these lines over time. We identify breaks, corrosion, or joint failures in your water line and walk you through repair and replacement options with honest pricing.

Irrigation System Leak Detection

Cedar Park homeowners rely heavily on irrigation systems to keep lawns healthy through hot Central Texas summers, and those systems are a common source of hidden leaks. Cracked heads, broken zone valves, and leaking lateral lines can waste thousands of gallons before you notice a problem. We inspect and pressure-test your system to catch waste before it hits your water bill.

Emergency Leak Detection

Some leaks can't wait until Monday morning. If you're hearing water running constantly, notice a sudden pressure drop, or spot flooding near your foundation, we offer emergency leak detection services across Cedar Park. Our team responds quickly so you can stop the damage before it spreads.

Whole House Leak Assessment

If your water usage has climbed steadily but you can't point to a single source, a whole-house leak assessment gives you a complete picture. We systematically test every zone of your plumbing system — supply lines, fixtures, drains, and outdoor connections — to identify every active or developing leak in one visit.

New Construction Leak Detection

Cedar Park's ongoing development means plenty of newly built homes hit the market each year, and not all of them arrive without plumbing issues. Poor fitting connections, supply lines installed under pressure, and rushed inspections can leave new homeowners dealing with leaks within the first year or two. We provide pre-warranty expiration inspections that catch problems before they become your responsibility to pay for.

Water Heater Leak Detection

Water heaters are a quiet source of leaks in Cedar Park homes, especially in units that are 8 to 12 years old. Tank corrosion, failing pressure relief valves, and loose supply connections can drip for weeks before causing visible damage. We inspect your water heater thoroughly and let you know whether a repair or replacement is the smarter investment.

Gas Line Leak Detection

Gas leaks are a life-safety issue that demands immediate attention. If you smell sulfur or rotten egg odors in your Cedar Park home, notice dead patches of grass over your gas line, or hear a hissing sound near your appliances, leave the home and call us right away. Our licensed plumbers perform thorough gas line inspections and repairs to keep your household safe.

We Know Cedar Park Homes

Cedar Park is one of the fastest-growing cities in Texas, and that means we work on homes of every vintage — subdivisions off Lakeline that went up in the late 2000s, established communities near Twin Creeks that are now well past the 15-year mark, and brand-new builds still wrapping up near 183A. Homes in the 10 to 20 year range are at the age where original copper supply lines, builder-grade fixtures, and first-generation irrigation systems start to fail quietly. In Cedar Park's climate, with hot summers stressing pipes and occasional freezes cracking joints, that aging process moves faster than homeowners expect.

Cedar Park also sits on the edge of the Texas Hill Country, and the caliche and clay soils here don't behave the same way in every yard. Soil movement with seasonal rain cycles puts pressure on underground lines and slab penetrations in ways that aren't always visible from the surface. We've worked in enough Cedar Park neighborhoods to know where the problems tend to show up and what to look for first. That local experience means we spend less time guessing and more time solving.

We contacted Cold is on the Right today with an urgent plumbing need. Their very professional and organized crew arrived within 30 minutes and fixed our issue. We called five other plumbing companies before them and no one was able to help us. Cold is on the Right will now be the first plumbers we call.

We called due to slow drainage and apparently main line backing up into master bathroom shower and sink. There is an automated line that takes your information and apparently works very well. Plumbers Billy and Jeremy showed up promptly after we were informed they were being dispatched this morning, they stayed and worked until the problem was solved and advised on possible future repairs that would need to be done. They were professional, smart, respectful of our home, and efficient in their actions. Let us know what things would cost and were honest in their assessment of what would be needed next and how (un) likely our homeowners insurance would be able to help.  I appreciate the service and the fair treatment by these gentlemen. Thank you.

Santiago and Kyle were amazing during our total HVAC system replacement. Kind, informative, knowledgeable and careful to ensure a smooth install. They were efficient and got my AC working before my family arrived for spring break. Now enjoying the cool air with family. Great pricing and quick turn around from quote to finished job. Thank you! 10/10 would recommend them to anyone needing HVCA or plumbing work.

These guys are prompt and very polite, and explain your options well without trying to upsell. We thought we needed three things replaced, but they showed us that one of the three just needed an adjustment rather than a replacement. Wonderful service!

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does leak detection cost in Cedar Park?
Leak detection costs in Cedar Park typically range from $150 to $400 depending on the complexity of the inspection and what type of leak is suspected. A straightforward under-sink or fixture leak takes less time and equipment than locating a slab leak or underground line break. We always give you upfront pricing before we start, so you know what to expect. If we find a leak and you move forward with repairs, we'll walk you through those costs separately with the same transparency.
How do I know if I have a slab leak in my Cedar Park home?
Common signs of a slab leak include warm spots on your floor, the sound of running water when everything is turned off, unexplained increases in your water bill, and cracks forming in your tile grout or foundation. Cedar Park homes built in the 2000s are reaching the age where copper lines embedded in the slab can start to corrode or develop pinhole leaks. If you notice any of these signs, it's worth getting an inspection sooner rather than later — slab leaks tend to get more expensive the longer they're ignored.
How long does a leak detection inspection take?
Most residential leak detection inspections in Cedar Park take between one and three hours, depending on what we're looking for and the size of your home. A targeted inspection focused on one area — like a bathroom or water heater — is usually faster. A whole-house assessment that checks supply lines, drains, irrigation, and the slab takes longer but gives you a complete picture. We'll give you a realistic time estimate when we schedule your appointment.
Can a hidden leak cause mold in my Cedar Park home?
Yes, and it happens faster than most homeowners realize. Cedar Park's warm, humid summers create ideal conditions for mold growth once moisture gets inside a wall cavity or under a floor. A slow drip that goes undetected for a few weeks can saturate framing and drywall enough to trigger mold growth that requires professional remediation on top of the plumbing repair. This is one of the main reasons early leak detection pays off — catching the leak before mold takes hold keeps the project scope and cost manageable.
My water bill went up but I can't find any obvious leak. What should I do?
An unexplained water bill spike is one of the most reliable early signs of a hidden leak. Start by checking your water meter — turn off everything in your house and watch the meter dial for 15 minutes. If it moves, water is escaping somewhere. Common culprits in Cedar Park homes include running toilets, dripping hose bibs, slow irrigation zone leaks, and pinhole leaks in supply lines inside walls. If you can't find the source yourself, a professional inspection is the fastest way to track it down and stop the waste.
