What Separates Precision Pipe Repair from Guesswork

The biggest cost variable in pipe repair isn't parts β€” it's how much structure gets opened to find and access the failure. Precise pre-repair location tools reduce that cost significantly.

πŸ”Š

Acoustic Leak Detection

Acoustic detection is most effective on pressurized supply lines. Combined with a pressure test to confirm water loss before we start, it tells us both that there's a leak and exactly where it is.

🌑️

Thermal Camera Scanning

We use thermal imaging as a complement to acoustic detection β€” particularly useful for slab leaks and leaks inside insulated wall cavities where sound transmission is reduced.

πŸ› οΈ

All Pipe Materials & Joining Methods

Press-fit copper connections β€” particularly useful for repairs in occupied spaces where open flame is a concern β€” are available as an alternative to torch sweating where code permits.

πŸ”’

Pressure-Tested Before We Leave

Every supply line repair is pressure-tested before we close the wall or floor. We pressurize the repaired section, hold the test pressure for the required duration, and confirm zero drop before considering the repair complete. You don't find out there's a second leak next week β€” we find it before we pack up.

Pipe Repair Solutions for Gibson Homes

Pipe failures have different causes depending on material type, age, water chemistry, and installation history. Here's how we address each category.

Copper

Copper Pipe Repair & Repipe

Pitting corrosion in copper is sometimes systemic rather than localized β€” a single pinhole is often the first of several to appear. When the camera or pressure test finds multiple deteriorated sections, we give you an honest assessment of whether targeted repair or full copper repipe is the better long-term answer.

Galvanized

Galvanized Pipe Replacement

Galvanized steel pipe was standard in homes built before the 1960s. It corrodes from the inside out β€” zinc coating depletes, iron oxide (rust) accumulates on the inner wall, progressively narrowing flow and leaching into the water supply. Repairs on severely corroded galvanized are generally temporary; the pipe is failing systemically along its full run.

PEX

PEX Pipe Repair & Extension

PEX is also the material of choice for extending or reconfiguring supply runs during remodel work. Its flexibility reduces fitting count and eliminates the need for torch work inside walls.

Burst Pipes

Burst & Freeze-Damaged Pipe Repair

A burst pipe from freezing or sudden pressure surge requires immediate water shutoff and precise repair. We locate the failure, determine whether it's a single failure point or multiple freeze-damaged sections, and repair with a method appropriate to the pipe material β€” press-fit coupling for copper, expansion coupling for PEX-A, or a mechanical repair coupling for emergency situations.

Slab Leaks

Under-Slab Pipe Leak Repair

Supply line leaks under a concrete slab are identified by acoustic detection and confirmed by thermal imaging. Once located, we evaluate three repair options: direct-access repair (jackhammering to the pipe, repairing the section, and patching the slab); rerouting the line through the wall framing above slab to bypass the failed underground run; or epoxy pipe lining for older copper systems with systemic pinhole corrosion.

Full Repipe

Whole-House Repipe Service

A full repipe in Gibson typically completes in 2–3 days for a standard single-family home. You're without water for a portion of each day; we plan the schedule to minimize disruption to occupied rooms.

What Gibson Customers Say About Our Pipe Work

β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…

My older home had a copper supply line fail inside an exterior wall. The thermal camera showed the wet zone through the drywall without any cutting. They opened a 10-inch section right at the pinhole, put in a press-fit repair coupling β€” no torch in my wall β€” pressure tested, and patched the drywall themselves. Two hours total.

β€” N. Bergman, Gibson
β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…

Our galvanized supply lines finally gave out β€” low pressure everywhere, rust-colored water at some fixtures. Masters Plumbing Service repiped the whole house with PEX over two days. They confirmed pressure and flow at every fixture before leaving, patched all the wall access points smooth, and cleaned up each work area. One year later, no issues at all.

β€” O. & R. Adeyemi, Gibson, AR
β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…

Pipe burst in a rental property at 2 AM β€” Masters Plumbing Service's emergency line answered immediately, talked my tenant through the main shutoff, and had a tech there in 45 minutes. Freeze crack in a PEX line in an exterior wall. Repair and insulation wrap done in under two hours. Detailed receipt for insurance documentation. Exactly what I needed as a landlord dealing with a crisis remotely.

Pipe Repair Questions We Answer Every Day

A slow pinhole leak inside a wall can run for months before surface damage appears. By the time you see a stain, the moisture intrusion is typically already significant. If your meter shows movement with everything off, call us β€” we can pressure-test and locate it before it becomes a major remediation project.
In some cases β€” particularly for older copper systems with multiple pinhole failures along a supply run β€” rerouting the line through accessible framing rather than repairing it in place is more practical and more permanent. We present both options when they're both viable.
A slab leak is a supply line or drain line failure in a pipe that runs through or under the concrete foundation slab. Supply line slab leaks are the more urgent scenario β€” pressurized water escaping under the slab saturates the subgrade, can undermine the foundation, and drives significant water bills.
We assess galvanized condition when we're on-site β€” visible exterior corrosion, interior scale visible at the cut failure point, and water pressure readings all tell us how advanced the system deterioration is. We give you the repair-vs-repipe math honestly so you can make the decision that fits your timeline and budget.
We don't rush pressure testing at the end. That's the step that confirms the repair is actually complete, and it takes the time it takes.
Our pipe repair quote includes clean access cuts and leaving the opening ready for patching β€” with a clean, straight cut that accepts a standard drywall patch. We can typically patch the access opening as part of the job on request, though finish painting and texture matching are typically handled by the homeowner or a drywall contractor for best cosmetic results.
