Free to homeowners in Georgia — the contractor pays us for the introduction, you never do.
Where we listen
Our leak detection coverage in Georgia runs to 619 ZIP codes in 365 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 Georgia
Georgia licenses are issued by the Georgia Secretary of State, Division of Master and Journeyman Plumbers, which publishes a public search you can use before work begins.

What that coverage looks like
Atlanta alone accounts for 92 of the state's 619 covered ZIP codes, and Cobb County for 120. Dense coverage like that is where a leak call is answered quickest; the 106 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.
