Water line pressure that finds a weak joint or a frozen section doesn't stay contained — it travels through the wall cavity before it ever shows on the surface.
We open the wall cavity carefully, only as far as moisture readings say is necessary, rather than tearing out an entire wall.
We'll walk you through shutoff steps over the phone if you call before we arrive.
Our Hatteras, NC crews trace pressure loss to identify the failure point before opening drywall.
