Water Leak Repair in Erie, Longmont & Northern Colorado

A plumbing leak can cause water damage, increase your utility bill, and lead to bigger problems if it is not repaired promptly. Whether you have a leaking pipe, dripping fitting, water beneath a sink, or moisture around a plumbing fixture, Colorado Green Plumbing, Heating & Cooling can help.

Our licensed plumbers provide professional water leak repair for homeowners throughout Erie, Longmont, Lafayette, Louisville, Frederick, Firestone, Brighton, Boulder, and surrounding Northern Colorado communities.

We’ll evaluate the accessible plumbing, explain what we find, and recommend the appropriate repair without unnecessary upselling.

Plumbing Leak Repair for Your Home

Some plumbing leaks are obvious. Others may first show up as moisture, staining, dripping, or an unexplained increase in water use.

Colorado Green repairs many common residential plumbing leaks, including:

• Leaking water supply lines
• Pipe and fitting leaks
• Under-sink plumbing leaks
• Toilet leaks
• Faucet and fixture leaks
• Shower and tub plumbing leaks
• Washing machine supply line leaks
• Appliance water line leaks
• Water heater plumbing connections
• Accessible plumbing leaks behind walls or ceilings

Our focus is on identifying the accessible plumbing problem and making the appropriate repair.

Signs You May Have a Plumbing Leak

You may need a plumber if you notice:

• Water collecting beneath a sink or fixture
• Dripping from exposed pipes or fittings
• Water stains on walls or ceilings
• Damp cabinetry, drywall, or flooring
• A toilet that runs frequently
• Moisture around plumbing fixtures
• An unexplained increase in your water bill
• Sounds of running or dripping water

If you know where the leak is coming from, we can evaluate the plumbing and recommend a repair.

If the source of the leak is unknown and requires specialized locating equipment, a dedicated leak detection company may be needed before plumbing repairs can be completed.

What Happens During a Water Leak Repair Service Call?

Our plumber will begin by evaluating the accessible plumbing and the area where the leak has been identified.

Once we determine the cause of the problem, we’ll explain what we found and discuss repair options before moving forward.

Depending on the issue, repairs may involve:

• Replacing a damaged fitting
• Repairing or replacing a section of pipe
• Replacing a leaking supply line
• Replacing a valve
• Repairing plumbing connections
• Replacing damaged fixture components

Our goal is to make the necessary repair while giving you straightforward information about your options.

What If I Don’t Know Where the Leak Is Coming From?

Colorado Green provides water leak repair, but we are not a specialized leak detection company.

If the leak source is visible, accessible, or reasonably identifiable through the plumbing, our plumbers can evaluate the issue and make the appropriate repair.

However, some hidden leaks may require specialized equipment or locating services before the plumbing can be accessed. This can include leaks concealed beneath concrete, underground, or in areas where the source cannot reasonably be identified.

If specialized leak detection is needed first, we’ll let you know so you can have the leak located before the repair is completed.

In addition to repairing plumbing leaks, Colorado Green installs whole-home water monitoring and automatic shutoff systems, including Flo by Moen.

What Should You Do If You Find a Water Leak?

If you discover an active plumbing leak, taking a few quick steps may help reduce additional damage.

1. Shut off the affected fixture or appliance if there is a nearby shutoff valve.
2. Turn off your home’s main water supply if the leak cannot be stopped locally or water is flowing rapidly.
3. Move belongings away from the affected area when it is safe to do so.
4. Avoid electrical outlets, fixtures, or equipment near standing water.
5. Call a licensed plumber to repair the plumbing problem.

Knowing where your main water shutoff is located before an emergency happens can save valuable time.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you provide leak detection services?

Colorado Green specializes in plumbing leak repair rather than specialized leak detection. If the source of the leak is visible or accessible, our plumbers can evaluate the plumbing and make the appropriate repair. If specialized equipment is needed to locate a hidden leak, a dedicated leak detection company may need to locate it first.

Yes, in many cases. The plumbing must first be located and accessible. If the source of the leak has already been identified, our plumbers can evaluate the area and determine the appropriate repair.

Can you repair a leaking water line?

Yes. We repair many types of residential water supply line and plumbing line leaks, depending on the location and accessibility of the damaged piping.

Should I shut off my water if I have a leak?

If water is actively leaking and cannot be stopped using a nearby fixture or appliance shutoff valve, shutting off the home’s main water supply can help limit additional water damage.

Do you install automatic water shutoff systems?

Yes. Colorado Green installs whole-home water monitoring and automatic shutoff systems, including Flo by Moen.

What does Flo by Moen do?

Flo by Moen monitors water use throughout your home and can alert you to unusual water activity. It also includes automatic shutoff capabilities that may help reduce water damage when certain plumbing problems are detected.
