📞 (281) 829-9828Acoustic Leak Detection
Using sensitive listening equipment, we pinpoint the sound of water escaping pressurized pipes — even beneath concrete slabs or inside finished walls — without cutting or digging until we know exactly where the leak is.
Thermal Imaging Inspection
Our thermal cameras detect temperature differences caused by moisture — identifying leak locations behind drywall, under flooring, or inside ceilings with no demolition required upfront.
Water Meter & Pressure Testing
We check your meter behavior and run pressure tests on your supply lines to confirm whether a leak is active and estimate its location — a fast, non-invasive first step in any leak investigation.
Sewer & Supply Line Camera
When a leak is suspected inside a drain line or sewer, our pipe cameras let us see exactly what’s happening inside without excavation — identifying cracks, joint failures, or root intrusion accurately.
Slab Leak Detection
Houston-area slab homes are especially prone to pinhole leaks in copper lines running beneath the foundation. We use a combination of acoustic and pressure testing to locate slab leaks precisely before recommending any repair path.
Whole-Home Leak Survey
If you’re buying, selling, or just want peace of mind, we can conduct a full plumbing survey of your home — checking all supply lines, fixture connections, and drain lines for signs of active or developing leaks.

Plumbing Leak Detection FAQs — Katy, TX
How do I know if I have a hidden water leak?
Common signs include a water bill that’s higher than usual without any change in usage, wet or warm spots on floors or walls, the sound of running water when no fixtures are on, or low water pressure throughout the home. Any of these warrants a professional inspection.
Can you find a leak without tearing up my floors or walls?
In most cases, yes. We use acoustic listening equipment and thermal imaging cameras to pinpoint leaks before any access is made. Once we know exactly where the leak is, we recommend the least invasive repair path possible.
Why are leaks more common in Katy-area homes?
Katy and greater Houston sit on expansive clay soil that shifts with moisture changes — this puts stress on pipes under and around slab foundations. Hard water in the area also accelerates corrosion in copper lines, leading to pinhole leaks over time.
How long does a leak detection inspection take?
Most inspections take between one and two hours depending on the size of the home and the complexity of the leak. We’ll give you a clear picture of what we found and explain the repair options before any work begins.
Do you provide a written estimate before starting repairs?
Always. We provide a clear, upfront estimate after the inspection so you know the full scope and cost before we start. No surprises, no pressure — your approval comes first.
If you suspect a leak — whether it’s a rising water bill, a damp spot, or just a feeling something isn’t right — Ory’s Plumbing is ready to help. We’ll inspect your system, pinpoint the source, and walk you through your options with a clear estimate before any work begins.
