Lone Star Leak Locators’ detection fees start at $339 and up. Slab leak repairs are estimated separately after we locate the leak. Your repair estimate depends on the work proposed for your property; the starting detection fee is not a total repair price.
If you are trying to budget for a suspected slab leak in Dallas or Plano, start by separating two questions: what will it cost to investigate, and what work will be needed if a leak is found?

Detection and repair are separate parts of the job
We test for leaks and use specialized equipment to locate them. Every visit includes a written report. Once we identify the leak, we provide an estimate for repairs. Our team also performs repairs, so you can discuss the findings and proposed work with us.

What should your slab leak estimate explain?
A useful estimate makes the scope clear. Before comparing totals, ask what each proposal includes.
- Testing: What system will be tested, what fee applies, and how will any additional testing be handled?
- Repair: What specific work is proposed after the leak is located?
- Access: What needs to be opened or moved to reach the repair area, and who handles that work?
- Restoration: Are concrete, flooring, walls or other finishes included, excluded or quoted separately?
- Completion: What checks are included after repair, and what remains for the homeowner or another contractor?
These are questions to settle in your estimate, not a promise that every service is included in every repair.
Why we quote the repair after locating the leak
A starting detection fee tells you where pricing begins. It does not describe the repair your property needs. We first investigate the problem, then explain the proposed repair and provide an estimate for that scope.
Before approving work, ask us to walk through the findings, the repair area, the expected schedule and anything not included in the price. If you are comparing estimates, make sure they cover the same work.
What to have ready when you call
Tell us your service address, what you have noticed, when it began and whether there have been previous plumbing repairs. Photos, recent water bills and earlier reports can help you explain the concern. You do not need to diagnose the problem yourself before contacting us.
