Loveland Leak Detection Specialists
Get precise answers about a suspected leak before water damage spreads through your Loveland property. Subsurface Leak Detection of Colorado provides professional leak detection for plumbing leaks, slab leaks, underground water lines, irrigation systems, sewer problems, and commercial properties. With advanced, non-invasive diagnostic methods, we help protect your property, reduce repair uncertainty, and direct attention to the area that truly needs work.
Determine Whether the Loveland Leak Is on the Customer Side
Loveland Utilities describes the normal responsibility boundary at the meter: piping downstream of the meter is generally customer responsibility. For the smaller group of properties with an indoor meter, customer responsibility begins at the curb stop. Confirm the specific configuration with the utility before assuming which side is involved.
Water or sewer breaks should be reported to the City at 970-962-3456, with minor concerns directed to 970-962-3000. The City’s current contact guidance is available through Report a Water or Power Concern. Private diagnostics are appropriate when unexplained use remains on the customer-owned system.
Loveland Leak Detection for Private Water Systems
Residential Leak Detection
A meter that moves with fixtures off may reflect a toilet, concealed branch, irrigation valve, service line, or another private demand. We use shutoffs and zone isolation first, then select acoustic listening, pressure testing, thermal imaging, moisture measurement, tracer gas, or line tracing as conditions warrant.
Commercial Leak Detection
Commercial sites, multifamily buildings, HOAs, and managed irrigation systems can have separate meters, long branch networks, common-area use, and multiple isolation points. We review the billing and system layout so testing follows the private network rather than a generic checklist.
Plumbing Smoke Testing
For recurring sewer gas or an unexplained odor, controlled smoke testing can help locate open cleanouts, failed seals, vent problems, and concealed connections. Camera inspection may be used when accessible piping needs visual documentation.
What Loveland’s Advanced-Meter Rollout Can and Cannot Show
Loveland begins a multiyear advanced-meter rollout in 2026 for residential, commercial, multifamily, and irrigation connections. More detailed usage information may reveal continuous or unexpected flow, but a meter alert cannot pinpoint the failed fixture, pipe, valve, or underground location.
Downtown Loveland is an official historic district, while other properties extend through newer residential, commercial, and irrigated settings. A Loveland mailing address also does not guarantee City water service in every corridor, so the provider and meter configuration should be confirmed before City-specific guidance is used.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Loveland Utilities or the property owner responsible for the leaking line?
Loveland Utilities says customer responsibility is generally downstream of the meter. For properties with an indoor meter, responsibility begins at the curb stop. Confirm the exact configuration and boundary with the utility.
Can Loveland’s advanced water meter locate a leak?
No. Advanced meter data may flag continuous or unexpected use and show when it occurs, but it does not identify the fixture, valve, pipe, or exact underground location causing the loss.
What should I do if water is running in the street?
Treat a suspected water or sewer break as a utility issue and contact the City at 970-962-3456. Private diagnostics fit customer-owned piping after the utility side has been addressed.
Can an investigation separate irrigation loss from indoor plumbing?
Often. Shutoff testing, controller review, zone-by-zone irrigation isolation, and meter behavior can identify which system continues using water before more focused diagnostic testing is selected.
