Overview
Ranked #1 in Entrepreneur® magazine in the
"Maintenance Products and Services" franchise sector for the last five
years, American Leak Detection is the world leader in the industry we
created - the accurate, non-destructive detection of hidden leaks
(water, sewer, and gas). From concealed plumbing systems to swimming
pool cracks, the smallest leak is located with the most advanced,
sophisticated electronic devices - without bashing holes in walls or
digging up the deck and yard. American Leak Detection sets the standard
for non-invasive leak detection and repair with proprietary methods and
technology. Founded over 30 years ago, we now operate a network of
highly trained Original Leak Specialists in nine countries on five
continents.
American Leak Detection’s recent partnership with PlainSight has resulted in a new combined Research and Development department second to none. PlainSight is affiliated with Yale University and maintains 40+ patents. You'll have access to our new, specialized, patented, and powerful electronic leak detection equipment.
