American Leak Detection - Utah

I was very disappointed with this company. We had a main water line break which we could only hear and not see so it was required for us to hire this company to detect the leak, apparently they are the only company in UT that detect leaks. We paid them $335 for them to come out and they said they detected the leak under my front porch and placed a big blue X in the spot they said it was. I hired a plumbing company to come and fix the leak, it required 2 plumbers , renting a jack hammer and paying them to destroy almost my whole front porch for the plumbers to not find water or a pipe! I called American Leak Detection and told them they needed to come back out because they didn't find the leak, the guy came back out but was very rude. He did his test and was like "oh it's in your lawn next to your porch"! I was upset because not only was my porch destroyed I had to pay the 2 plumbers by the hour for a whole day, which didn't need to happen in the first place and didn't make me any closer to fixing my leak. I contacted American Leak Detection and it took almost the whole day for the owner to call me back, he then told me the only thing he could do was refund my $335 I paid them to come out. I asked him about the giant hole in my front porch, the lost time and the time I had to pay the plumbers and he said he was not responsible for that, that there's nothing more he could do for me. I had to pay the plumbers to fix their mistake! Please be aware of this so that this won't happen to you, usually companies want to make their customers happy so they don't end up with upset customers but this company doesn't care about making their customs happy. I will not send anyone I know to this company ever!!! Please save yourself the headache!

They found the drainage pipe that was leaking, but not exactly where the leak occurred. The technician marked the ceiling of the basement but the leak was actually from a corroded cast-iron elbow at floor level. We should have cut our the ceiling sheet rock and visually identified whether a leak was occurring where he indicated. They reduced the original quote of $325 because it was a simpler job than they had first imagined. These folks are the most expensive of the leak detectors that we hired, but the found the leak.
