If water is leaking right now
Turn off the water at your main shut-off valve, usually where the water line comes into the house in the basement, crawlspace or garage. Then call or text Pat, with a photo if you can.
When to call Pat
- Water stains, drips or a bulge in a ceiling.
- Water in the basement, or near a vent or floor drain.
- A pipe that burst or split in the cold.
- A pinhole leak, or a leak on the main water line.
- A sump pump that has stopped working.
How Pat handles it
Pat finds where the water is coming from before he opens anything up, and keeps any opening as small as the job allows. Then he fixes the cause along with the leak: a bad fitting, an old repair redone properly, simpler piping, or a valve added so you can shut that line off next time.
He’ll give you the options and the price for each. Pat is a plumber, so once the leak is fixed, customers describe him recommending people he trusts for the drywall, tile or water damage it left behind.

What customers say about Pat’s leak repairs
“I texted the number at 7:00 am and he texted back within a few minutes and was out at our house a couple of hours later. Found the issue, explained what he was doing to fix it and completed the job quickly (and then cleaned everything up).”
Leak stories are about finding the real source, and fixing the cause along with the leak.
A leak inside the wall
“Found leaking drain pipe in wall. Discovered expansion joint coupling was improperly installed and lightweight drain pipe had a hole and crack. Identified which fixtures drained into cracked pipe so we mark them out of service until final repair.”
Joe Schmid, on Google A small, clean opening
“He had to cut into drywall and did it very clean and only a small opening.”
Lakmal Wijesekara, on Google A failed sump pump
