Review 1 (2024-10-15 - Rating: 5)
From one of our customersāGreat Job - saved me thousandsāāThere was a water main break at my house. I called a plumbing contractor who said I needed to get someone to find the leak first, before they would fix it. For some odd reason my meter was at the back of by basement, behind the furnace, with the main line coming in at the front of the house. One contractor said heād have to jackhammer up the floor, apparently have the furnace removed, so he could install a 4-foot sheath over the line just before the meter. Another option he offered was going around the house to the back, past the gas, electric and cable lines next to the AC unit. Which might have meant Iād have to tear out part of the back deck and a fence. I asked why they couldnāt just punch a hole in the front and run a new line inside. The man said he couldnāt, due to having to have the sheath over the line four feet from the meter. Either option, jackhammering or going around back was going to cost me thousands and thousands of dollars. I mentioned this to Chuck from American Leak Detection, who we hired to find the leak, and he said. āWhy donāt you just move your meter to the front of the houseā. He said they could do that. I was fine with it. It was a great solution. The guys showed up got the meter moved and the line fixed in less that a working day. I ran the inside line myself, which saved me $1,500 dollars (they did the connections). The price I paid was just over the price of the deposit required by the other company. This literally saved me thousands of dollars. They even used the scoop on the backhoe to remove my wifeās deeply rooted plants, from her front garden, as we were not able to dig them up before the excavation. They set them aside and we were able to replant them.Mark.ThompsonOct 15, 2024 -

I had attempted over the past year to have local pool companies from Delaware and Marion Ohio come and check our pool due to a water leak issue. However, each company I called said I either lived to far for them to assist me, (20 minutes from the Marion Store and 15 -20 from the Delaware stores) or they would not check unless they had installed the pool. Ok???? Anyway I called American Leak Detection and without any issues was able to get an appointment. I met two awesome employees, Tyler and Joe who blew my mind with their knowledge of their company and the work they were performing to check for the leak. They came earlier than expected, and spent about 1 1/2 hours detecting the issue. The level of professionalism these guys displayed was beyond incredible. If you need a leak detected or other related work DO NOT HESITATE to call ALD! In closing I have decide to replace our pools liner and will be using ALD for the install! Thank you Tyler, Joe, and American Leak Detection! -

Despite the harsh sub-freezing temperatures, Steve and his crew quickly came to the rescue, locating and repairing a water main leak in our community. They were on site for nearly 12 hours, ensuring the work was done, and water service restored, the same day. They were professional throughout the process, and kept us informed of the status of the work. We will not hesitate to hire American Leak Detection again. -

Paul and Tim were excellent! I highly recommend these two very personable technicians whos experience and common sense was instrumental in figuring out the cause of my roof leak which three other people before them could not determine. For several years I have had an ongoing problem with moisture on an interior ceiling which eventually progressed to a drip. It only happened in rain storms that had high winds. It has remained a mystery to two highly recommended roof companies and insurance adjusters alike who could only guess but could never recreate and conclusively find where exactly the water was coming in. Paul and Tim ran a flood test in a different manner than all the rest had done. Within a minute, their suspicions were confirmed as to the cause and the solution. It was indeed related to high winds and driving rain as I suspected. How wonderful to have someone figure out the specifics of what was happening and to be able to recommend to my insurance company a resolution! Now I can finally have the interior ceiling repaired! I am so grateful to them and so relieved! -

So far everything has been great. ALDS kept me informed during the entire process. They came out when they scheduled visits and finished the liner install in one day.As of now itās 5 stars. If anything changes during the season I will provide an update but I donāt anticipate any problems. -

I would highly recommend using American Leak Detectors of Columbus for any project that fits their expertise. The lead technician always kept me informed of what was happening, answered any question that we had, was careful to treat our property with respect and care, and the price was very reasonable for how complicated the project turned out to be. These guys are real professionals. -

Friendly, on Time, and priced right. Steve was great to work with today. He found the leak was a pleasure to talk to, gave me advice on the next steps to take in repair. The price is exactly what they quoted on the phone. Excellent company for quick leak detection in hard to reach places. -

Ill start with the office...the woman who set up my appointment for a pool leak was very knowledgeable and professional. In fact, she was candid enough to suggest that I may not actually have a leak due to the the small amount of water loss. I know my pool and was confident of I had a leak. Scott, the technician, came out today and accessed a bunch of different tools in hopes of finding the leak - his determination never diminished and he found the leak and sealed it. Now, Im not 100% confident that the leak is solved but time will tell. I received the invoice and was happy to see that they include a guarantee to come back and do more testing if the leak continues. At this point really happy with Scott, the office, and the professionalism. Highly recommend (BTW - Omni Pools recommended American Leak Detection letting me know they are solid) -

UPDATE: 8/16/23 - ALD came out and made the necessary repairs and completed several checks to ensure pressure is holding. I am pleased they responded quickly. :-)8/15/23: A little over 90 days from the repair, and the repair they did of sleeving the line from my kitchen to the main connect just blew!! Perfect (sarcasm) And I have an inspection with the city in the morning to confirm all leaks were repaired. Guess Im failing that now. Whats the point of immediate service when you have to leave a message and wait for them to call the next day!ALD was recommended by Muetzel Plumbing due to the leak not being visible and there were no signs of water damage. ALL of their employees were very helpful. The technicians were always timely and broke the news of my major leaks (I had 4) in a manner that made me feel comfortable about the process. I would highly recommend them!! THANK YOU ALD! -

ALD excavated my water service line leak just outside my foundation, repaired the line, brought it up to code and inspected by the city, hole filled in all within a few hours. I was impressed with their efficiency . Maquita in the office was also helpful with billing. -

Chuck and Tim performed a smoke test to determine where the sewer smell was coming from within my house. Leak was found. Crew provided detailed report for my plumber to repair/fix. They were great. They answered all questions and provided pictures as well. I would definitely recommend and hire again if necessary. -

The Technicians (Cory & Tanner) arrived promptly for the appointment and came prepared to get the job done. They were professional, courteous, and respectful of my property. Oh! And did i mention efficient?! They were in & out in less than 1.5 hrs which included a run to a Home Depot. Upon completion of the leak repair they tidied up, went over the details of the repair in depth and showed pics they took of the completed job to submit to my Homeowners Insurance if I chose to file a claim for reimbursement. A1 service! Would highly recommend this company and will be a repeat customer if/when needed. -

We had a water line leak that had frustrated another plumbing company for over 2 months. American Leak Detection was able to locate the leak within an hour and came back to do the repair. The team at ALD was on time, courteous and paid close attention to detail. They listened to our concerns and explained the repair process as it progressed during the day. We really appreciated the extra effort----laying plywood across the yard----to minimize damage to our front yard. We would highly recommend this company! -

American Leak Detection was extremely timely in responding to my issue. In fact, they sent a team out the very next day.

Prompt diagnosis, no BS. Got the repair scheduled and completed quickly and the area repaired looks great. Everything that was touched, looks exactly how it was when we left it, or better. Very reliable and trustworthy. Absolutely recommend!Update August 2022: We had a second Leah which was repaired by American leak detection. Again, a fantastic job. Thank you! -

ALD of Columbus was absolutely wonderful to work with on our pool. They were extremely helpful and knowledgeable throughout the entire process. Their customer service went above and beyond to make our experience great. From start to finish our pool liner/pool cover purchase and install was seamless (haha). I give the highest recommendation to ALD and we will encourage friends, family and neighbors to use them in the future.Thank you Markita- you made this process easy! -

So grateful! A flooring company came out to take measurements in the bathroom and found moisture under the vinyl floor. I call ALD, was scheduled for next week but received same day service due to a cancelation. Very knowledgeable tech quickly located the source and advised on repairs. While there, they ran a camera down a downspout to see where it drained, advised on routing another downspout, and gave other useful tips. They even repaired a leaky pipe in the basement, an unrelated issue, since my handyman was dragging his heels. A+! Having them out put my mind to ease, and I felt that I was in good hands the whole time. Thanks again for your help! -

The techs, Steve & Scott came to my home on Aug 4 as part of an insurance claim. The source of a leak in my laundry room was quickly detected. Steve was very efficient and thorough. Needless to say, no more leak. I waited several days just to make sure. I anticipated a big mess with much damage to may walls. Surprisingly they only cut out a couple small areas in the drywall. What I appreciated most is that Steve completely answered every question to my satisfaction. The receptionist I spoke with on the phone was professional and worked within my schedule. Hope I never need them again, but if I do this is the company I will call. -

My company built a multi family building which presented a leak which no other company was able to find. American leak detection came in and located the leak in a very strategic fashion without any damage to the structure. It was captivating to watch them work. It was very methodical and they explained why they were doing what they were doing every step of the way. I just wish we had called them earlier before we cut drywall and removed flooring to try to find the leak our self. I would absolutely call them first in the future. Thank you again for your professionalism and your expertise. -

Great service and a highly professional company. Hopefully we wont have another leak but if we do I wont hesitate to call American Leak Detection again. The technician was super helpful and detailed in explaining exactly what he was doing, what he was finding, and how to fix the problem. He shared multiple options to fix the problem and helped me think through the best approach. Fantastic work! -

We called American Leak Detection after a Google search. We were impressed with the reviews and general comments. We had a leak in a half bath wall that I was unable to find. We called them at 8am and their technician was able to come the same day. After some high tech searching with an IR camera and compressed air, he found a small crack in a pvc supply line. He repaired the leak and was gone in under two hours. He gave us instructions on how long to wait before we have the drywall and flooring fixed. Weāre very pleased with the experience with ALD. Thanks, Paul -

Checked for a major water leak at my 50 unit property. I received a huge water bill and was told there was a major leak on my property. I called ALD and the very professional team came out the next day and determined there was NOT a leak. I was quoted about 1900 if it took all day but since it took less time, I was charged a very reasonable 450. My water bill has been adjusted, Thank you ALD. -

Itās never a good thing when your pool has a leak. However, Steve from ALD came out and quickly put me at ease. He was super friendly and professional.

I would not hesitate to call them again. -

I thought I had a slab leak that had caused a severe amount of flooring damage. Chuck and Tyler came out and within 1 hour found that my wet flooring was caused by a leaky sink vent line that was catching AC condensation from my attic. Would have never guessed the water damage to my floor was coming from my attic. $490 WELL SPENT! -
Review 43 (2019-08-29 - Rating: 5)
An all around good experience from the first phone call. The only issue was the wait time for the initial leak detection, but thatās not all bad as it says the company is good and reputable. We had our detection done on a Monday and it was fixed on Thursday around noon. I know that was thanks to Marquita in the office and Cory, the technician who did the repair. Cory (and helper, Tanner) arrived right on time and explained what they would be doing. My parents are elderly and both in wheelchairs and Cory was very kind to both of them. We left while the work was being done since they had to jackhammer up the cement and imagine our surprise when we returned a couple hours later and were told that they were close to being done, the water was back on, the pressure test was almost complete and we didnāt need to leave again. He said they would finish up and we could use water, flush toilets, and etc. About an hour later, they had everything cleaned up and packed in their truck. Thanks, Cory -

They arrived right on time, was curious as to how they detect leaks in my above ground swimming pool (which is why I called them) they explained the process and was able to find the leaks that I was unable to find. Patched up the holes ran another check to ensure that it was fixed and 2 hours later was on their way. Very pleased with what I saw and am a satisfied customer -

Rich Gould was the tech that came out today from American Leak Detection of Columbus. He was a pleasure and very professional to work with, his work was perfect. Its nice to have someone come into your home and communicate well with you on what they will be doing and talk with you about any questions you have like Rich did. Today was a great experience and my issue was resolved in a short period of time. Everything was clean and back to normal when Rich left which is not always the case when you have home repairs done. I would definitely recommend this company and will use them in the future should I have a need to. From the time I received the estimate to the end results today everything went great!Thank you American Leak Detection,Pat Sammons -

Same day service, rent with us being under a level 2 snow warning. Steve was here promptly and found the leak. Less than 45 minutes total, super guy!!

The leak detection was spot on which made the cutting of the concrete slab to be a small area and enabled the workers to get the job done quickly. And they left the work area clean after everything was complete. I do recommend American Leak Detectors even though the cost is pretty high. You get what you pay for. -

Totally astounded at the level of knowledge and skills of Paul and his crew. They came right in and got to work immediately and never paused. They never stood around wondering what to do. They knew what they had to do and got the job done. They were like the James Bond of pool leak detection. I would definitely recommend them to everyone looking for leak detection. Very glad I chose them. -

Discovered my Intex above ground pool had a leak in the liner. Called Marquita at ALD around 11am on 5/25/21. She sent over 2 technicians, Cam and Tory by 3pm the same day. They found the pin hole in the bottom of the liner within 15 minutes, patched it and were gone in a total of 25 minutes. Very professional, friendly, and willing to do whatever was needed to help fix my issue. Would highly recommend. -

ALD techs Paul and Cameron were great. They arrived early, worked constantly, and were able to fix simple thigs right away and described what a much more involved repair would entail later. They also practiced social distancing and wore masks where appropriate which was very important to us. We will consider them for other types of pool work in the future (like liner replacement, etc). We highly recommend them. -

Were so happy we were told about American Leak Detection of Columbus. The alternative to their service was to cut multiple holes in our drywall to locate the mystery leak. The plumber we called on Sunday wanted $185/hole if they cut to try and locate the leak and wanted to start in a completely different area of the house. I called American Leak Detection the next day. When I called, they kindly moved things around to work us in the following day. Chuck arrived on time and located the leak in less than 30 minutes and was able to make the repair for us. Should we ever need this type of service again, they will be our first and only call! -

We have a well and have water coming in around the wall. We had a few different companies out who all offered various opinions but no real diagnostics. Our estimates were all over the place. We needed more answers and wanted to pinpoint where exactly this leak was occuring. ALD was able to give us details on what was going on, picture images inside the pipe that was cracked and able to mark the area where it is located outside. Our appointment was moved up and our technicians were very professional. They shared their knowledge, help provide us with our own knowledge to move forward on this. Unfortunately for us, they dont work on wells but we feel so much better having an idea of whats going on and what needs done. -

Our pool was losing almost 2 inches per day and we could not figure out where it was leaking. We called ALD and Steve was out the next day with electronics and sensors to pressure test all the plumbing and determine where water was exiting the pool. He even got into the pool and checked the main drain all the surfaces. The leak was found around an inlet and was fixed on the spot. No more water loss! Steve was very personable and showed me everything he was doing throughout the process. I highly recommend ALD as they solved our problem efficiently and effectively. -

Steve was the best! He listened to my issues and then proceeded to test as needed. I had previously had to bust up concrete to repair a return line, and I was fearful there would be more plumbing repair ahead. Steve tested everything and turned out he found a hole in liner which was a simple patch fix. best news ever!! Pool is fixed time to close it up!! -
Review 59 (2022-08-03 - Rating: 5)
Correction; They never gave me an estimate for detection services, invoiced me for 3x the competition. The leak was not found by these professionals, the leak was found by a city employee after ALDs technician allowed water to be turned back on. But dont worry, ALD tried to charge me again to come back out.Look elsewhere. -
Review 60 (2019-05-08 - Rating: 5)
We purchased a home with an existing, older pool that has been a series of revolving repairs over the years that I have been mostly able to diagnose and fix myself. When I cant figure out water-loss issues I immediately turn to American Leak Detection. Their expert technicians and state of the art equipment can efficiently track down any issue that may arise. Then can usually respond within a few days, pinpoint the issue and offer quick pricing and carry out the needed repairs - no matter how significant. I experienced another water-loss issue this year that I could not isolate. Kudos to Steve W (Wolfie) for pressurizing all of the lines, checking the pool light and skimmer and then dawning his dry suit to enter my 58 degree pool and fix a faulty hydrostatic valve at the bottom of the deep end. I had visions of pavers coming up, concrete being sawn and removed and a late start to summer fun - whew! When my friends with pools have issues and ask me what to do, I give them ALDs number. When they ask me if they are good I reply, without hesitation, best in the business! Thanks again for the fast help and expert advice! -

ALD went to great lengths to see that our pool piping leak was fixed properly. When our technician ran into unexpected problems, three other technicians came over to help as their individual work was completed. By the end of the day we had as many as four ALD trucks in our driveway. After another small leak was detected later, ALD care right back and fixed the additional problem at no additional cost. We had no other bids to compare to ALD, so I cant comment on value. They did take longer than expected to get to our job due to an unexpected employee shortage due to a serious injury to one of their technicians. -

My condo had a rare leakage, without any physical sign of water damages inside and out of my condo. City water shut my water off due to the low pressure of my water service line. With about 200 foot long water line and dont know where is the leak makes me very frustrated, and the cost to replace the whole line is over $10000.Called 4 companies for checking the leak, American Leak Detection is super professional and responsive. They detected the leak within 30 min and it was underneath my bathroom of the condo unit. ALD is also giving me the best bid for repair. I was warned by other companies that replacing the underground water service line could potential damage the sewer system, and only ALD explained in details about how they would approach and make me less worried. Finally ALD replaced the water service line underneath my condo unit without any damages. Hooray!Special thanks to the field expert for detection and supervision the repair. I truly appreciate your professionality! -

The company was very responsive and organized, sending appointment confirmation emails, notifying us of the technicians names, etc. We had 3 visits to locate & repair our pool leak and each time the technicians were on time, professional and very careful and neat in their workmanship. I certainly hope we never have another leak but would contact the company again if we do. -

We had a liner installed in our pool by ALD. After one week, it started to float off bottom of pool and wrinkled. They came today and found a leak and patched it. We are still waiting to see what will have to be done to remove the water below the liner and reposition it in the pool. The technicians today were very professional and promptly found and repaired the leak, but were unable to tell us what the next step would be to restore the pool.Update:They came this week and removed water below liner and repositioned. We were able to swim in it today (September 1st). It seems to be well positioned and wrinkle free. While ALD has been fairly adamant that we somehow created the leak, the fit this time is skin tight. It was not that way after their first install; we had minor wrinkles and the floor was squishy from the outset. It is so well planted to the walls and floor now that we can see imperfections in the concrete and you can feel with your feet that the seams are thicker, where before there was no sensation at the seams. There does seem to be one area where there is something below the liner causing a bump, and with it fitting so tightly now, it worries me a bit whether it will result in a failure down the road. This is our first liner, so we do not know what is acceptable. I had ground the floor before the install, so I am pretty sure the bump is not part of the concrete. I plan to ask them about this next week. This pool is in our weekend home, so we are hoping all will still look good next weekend! -

Wolf(Steve) and his partner come in to my house promptly to inspect the occupationally flooding problem in our basement, when there is rain storm or heavy rain for a few days. They used the camera to check our pipes underground and our sump pump, they were in my house for 3 hours. They confirmed that our sump pump was not working properly which still brought pumped water back to our house etc. They did a thorough inspection, we are happy with their finding and their detailed report. -

Leaks are terrible. Sometimes they show up, others they dont. Just when you think you have it solved it comes back worse than before.I called them to come inspect a leaky roof that didnt leak all the time. They identified the source of the leak. Turns out there was some improperly installed flashing on our chimney chase. They recommended a siding/roofing company to come do the repair. Its been 3+ years with no leaks. They charged what I thought was kind of a lot but in the end the piece of mind knowing nothing was missed was worth it. Would hire again. -

Our swimming pool developed a leak that we could not trace to the liner or exterior plumbing. I called American Leak Detection on a Monday, their technician Steve Wolf came on Thursday morning and performed a careful and thorough analysis that identified an underground leak in one of the return lines. Steve was friendly and professional, he cleaned up everything when he finished and we could not be more satisfied with experience.The next day Cory and Jonathan came to fix the leak. This involved breaking through concrete and digging down until they found a cracked pipe. Cory sent photos of the work as it progressed and like Steve they did a careful and thorough job, replacing the broken pipe, filling in the hole and sealing this with fresh concrete. We received a detailed report when the job was done, and again we could not be happier with the quality of the work. If you have a leak, this is the company to go with! -

We had a reputable well known company send a tech that appeared to be unknowledgeable. He was nice but he told us we were his last call and he didnt expect us and he sounded like he wanted to get home. As a result, (as as we suspected) the issue was not resolved. We called another company (also well known) they said they would bring in a camera and get to the bottom of it...they did not use a camera...instead they said they would give us a estimate to jack hammer and knock down different walls and go through the slab ect. American Leak Detection was recommended by my insurance co guy. I called these guys, they stayed , listened. They tested and BROUGHT A CAMERA figured out the issue. These guys are problem solvers and are honest. I highly recommend them, thank you Steve Wolvy and your partner for all your help. -

Steve came out to perform a leak detection this morning. He was on time (actually a little early!) which is always a plus in my book when it comes to technician arrival windows. We appreciated not having to wait a long time. He was professional, kind, and worked efficiently. He was able to locate the leak within an hour and also gave us a quick fix so that we arent losing money between now and the repair. Just waiting on the estimate for a repair now - but the leak detection service was a great experience and were grateful for the peace of mind that other companies so far had not been able to provide.UPDATE: while we didnt end up having ALD repair the leak that they detected, I wanted to share that Steves detection was right on point. When the repair crew got into the floor, the leaking pipe was right where he said it would be. Literal X marks the spot. THANK YOU! -

Steve came out and scoped the drains with a camera and was able to show us that although there was a couple small spots where roots had infiltrated the drain pipes, the lines were clear and running all the way out. Two previous companies came out and wanted 2-3000 to replace all the drains.
