Where we listen

Our leak detection coverage in Florida runs to 1,358 ZIP codes in 464 cities. In a state of large municipalities most of the supply run a leak can hide in is under a street or a driveway rather than inside the house, and the meter is often a long way from the building. That distance is why a rising bill can show no damp anywhere indoors.

What this site is

AcousticLeak is a referral service, not a contractor. We connect homeowners with independent contractors. Contractors are required to hold whatever credential their state or municipality demands. We carry out no work and no leak location, we do not set prices, and we never charge homeowners anything — the contractors in our network pay us when we route them a call. Nothing here is a statement about what your own utility will credit; only your utility can tell you that.

Checking a credential in Florida

Florida licenses are issued by the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation, which publishes a public search you can use before work begins. Florida distinguishes state-certified contractors from registered contractors, who are limited to particular counties.

What that coverage looks like

Miami alone accounts for 96 of the state's 1,358 covered ZIP codes, and Miami-dade County for 127. Dense coverage like that is where a leak call is answered quickest; the 65 counties behind it are where the drive time starts to matter, and where locating the leak precisely before anyone is dispatched saves the most.

How a leak detection job goes

A leak you cannot see is found with sound and with pressure, not by digging until something turns up. The meter is isolated and watched, the run is listened along, and the point is marked before any surface is opened. What that is worth is simple arithmetic: the cost of locating is fixed, and the cost of opening the wrong three meters of concrete is not.

What the call asks about leak detection

  • Whether the meter moves with every tap in the house shut off — that one test separates a leak from a fitting.
  • Where the water is showing, if it is showing at all: a ceiling, a wall, a warm patch on a floor, or only the bill.
  • Whether the house is on a slab, a crawl space or a basement, because that decides how the run is reached.

Every Florida city we route in

42 cities, ordered by size. Dense building stock is where a leak on one service line is hardest to hear and slowest to surface. Each page carries that city’s own numbers and the ZIP codes we route there.

Before you call

A leak is located before anything is dug. What that costs and what it does not, and the questions to ask before the work is booked, are on the pages above.
