I received a call from my tenant about a possible water-heater leak in the garage and water leaking into the kitchen. When I called Anytime Plumbing, my call was routed to Rite Way Heating, Cooling & Plumbing, and they sent a plumber to inspect the problem. The plumber told me there were two separate leaks: one beneath the water heater and another inside the kitchen wall. He quoted $2,800 to replace the water heater. I asked him to focus first on the leak inside the wall. After cutting open the drywall, he quoted an additional $3,500, saying the repair would require a jackhammer to access the pipe, fix the leak, and place a rough concrete patch over the opening. He said that if I paid a 50% deposit, he would perform a temporary repair that day and return on Monday to complete the permanent repair. Because the quote seemed extremely high, I offered to pay separately for the temporary repair while I obtained additional estimates for the permanent work. He refused to perform even the temporary repair without receiving 50% of the full quote and left without fixing anything. We had to keep the main water valve shut off. We then contacted another plumber, who inspected the water heater and found no problem with it. He repaired the leak inside the wall for only $300. Based on this experience, I would not recommend Rite Way Heating, Cooling & Plumbing. Their diagnosis and pricing were dramatically different from those of the plumber who ultimately resolved the issue, and I felt that I was being pressured into paying for an unnecessary water-heater replacement and a much more expensive repair.

Thomas was great. Taught us a lot about our septic system and how it should work. And he's a drummer as well so give that man a raise.

Very great experience with Brandon. He was polite and knowledgeable and not pushy at all. He diagnosed the issue quickly on my primary unit, and also inspected my secondary unit ( which looked worse than I thought)! The service call was under $90 which is below many other firms. He also came the day we called the office to set up the service visit!!! VictorB

Plumber locating a hidden water leak in Tucson

Our Commitment to Tucson

Our commitment to Tucson goes beyond fixing plumbing problems. We believe homeowners deserve honest answers, professional workmanship, and service they feel confident calling again. Our local team takes the time to explain plumbing issues clearly and recommend solutions based on your home’s needs.

Why Leak Detection Matters for Tucson Homes

Even small leaks can waste a surprising amount of water over time. According to data from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the average household can lose thousands of gallons of water each year due to leaks. That amount is enough to handle hundreds of loads of laundry, all from water that never gets used.

Beyond wasted water, hidden leaks can:

  • Increase monthly water bills
  • Cause damage to walls, floors, and foundations
  • Create conditions for mold and mildew
  • Shorten the lifespan of plumbing systems
  • Mold growth

 

Professional leak detection helps stop these issues early, before they turn into costly repairs or emergencies.

How Ultrasonic Leak Detection Works

Ultrasonic leak detection uses sound-based technology to locate water escaping from pipes. When water moves through a damaged line, it creates distinct sound patterns that trained technicians can detect.

This method allows us to:

  • Find leaks behind walls or under concrete
  • Avoid unnecessary cutting or digging
  • Locate leaks faster and more accurately

 

By using non-invasive detection methods, we help protect your home while identifying the exact source of the problem.
