Ezra and Jose from Plumbing buddies were very professional and respectful of our property and always showed up on time and cleaned up after themselves.Ezra explained what was going to happen once our water got shut off. They began the re-piping under the house with ABS drain lines. finished one day and the 68 year-old cast-iron pipes are now gone. The new black ABS drain pipe should last for a long time. Highly recommend this company.

Plumbing leak detection in Glendora, CA
Plumbing Buddies provides plumbing leak detection in Glendora and the surrounding San Gabriel Valley communities.
Expert Plumbing leak detection in Glendora, CA
Hidden plumbing leaks are a common problem for Glendora homeowners. Many homes in the area were built in the 1960s and 70s, and the original pipes in those houses are aging. Glendora's moderately hard water accelerates corrosion inside older copper and galvanized lines. Foothill soil movement adds physical stress to pipes embedded under slab foundations. Together, these factors make leak detection a practical priority, not just a precaution. At Plumbing Buddies, owner Jeremy brings 20 years of plumbing experience to every leak call. He uses acoustic listening equipment and thermal imaging to locate leaks inside walls, under floors, and beneath slabs before any concrete or drywall is opened. That means you get a clear diagnosis and a repair plan based on where the leak actually is. We serve homeowners across Glendora, San Dimas, Covina, West Covina, La Verne, Pasadena, Upland, Claremont, Rancho Cucamonga, Monrovia, and Arcadia. If your water bill has climbed without explanation, or you hear water running when everything is off, call Plumbing Buddies.

FAQ
Plumbing leak detection FAQ
Common questions about plumbing leak detection in Glendora, CA.
A rising water bill with no change in usage is one of the clearest signs of a hidden leak in a Glendora home. Other signs include warm or damp spots on the floor, musty odors, water stains on walls or ceilings, and the sound of running water when all fixtures are off.
Yes, Plumbing Buddies uses acoustic listening equipment and thermal imaging to locate leaks before any floor or wall is opened. This approach pinpoints the leak first so that any access work is focused and minimal.
Many homes in Covina and Glendora were built on slab foundations in the 1960s and 70s, and the original copper supply lines in those homes are now aging. Hard water mineral buildup and foothill soil movement add stress to those pipes over time, making pinhole leaks more likely.
Yes, Plumbing Buddies locates leaks inside walls, ceilings, and floors across all home types in Glendora and the surrounding areas. Thermal imaging and acoustic tools work above and below grade.
Detection and repair are handled as separate steps so you know exactly where the leak is and what the repair involves before any work begins. Plumbing Buddies serves homeowners across La Verne, Upland, Rancho Cucamonga, and the wider San Gabriel Valley.
Shut off the main water supply to your home to stop water from continuing to flow through the leaking pipe. Then call Plumbing Buddies so we can assess the situation and locate the source.
