A hidden water leak in a Beaverton home can do significant damage before it becomes visible. Oregon's wet climate means moisture inside a wall doesn't stand out the way it might in a dry region, and a slow leak can progress for weeks before staining, odor, or structural softening shows up at the surface. Beaverton's 1970s and 1980s housing stock has supply lines that are now at the age where pinhole leaks and fitting failures are expected rather than exceptional. Sunset Heating, Cooling, Electrical & Plumbing has been finding and fixing leaks in Beaverton and the Portland metro since 1922.

Why Leak Detection Matters in Beaverton
- Aging copper supply lines in 1970s and 1980s Beaverton homes where pinhole leaks and fitting failures become more common after 40 to 50 years of service
- Oregon's wet climate masking moisture symptoms that would stand out more clearly in drier regions, allowing leaks to develop further before detection
- Slab leaks in homes where copper under the original concrete slab has been affected by age and soil conditions
- Corroded shutoff valves and angle stops that develop slow leaks over time
- Supply line connection failures behind walls and under sinks in older Beaverton construction
Beaverton homes from the 1970s and 1980s are at the age where supply line condition deserves attention even if no obvious leak has appeared. A water bill that's been climbing gradually without explanation is one of the most reliable early indicators of a hidden supply line issue.
How Sunset Finds Leaks
- Pressure testing to confirm a supply line leak is present before any access work begins
- Electronic leak detection equipment to locate leaks inside walls, under slabs, and in the yard without unnecessary demolition
- Sewer video inspection for drain and sewer line leak location
- Full assessment of all plumbing accessible from the surface before recommending any opening of walls or flooring
Service Areas
From Portland and Beaverton across the west side to Lake Oswego, Tigard, Tualatin, Gresham, and into Vancouver WA, Sunset's service area covers the full Portland metro and southwest Washington.
Does Sunset locate leaks without unnecessary demolition?
Yes. Sunset uses electronic leak detection equipment to locate supply line leaks non-invasively before any demolition is recommended. The goal is confirming exactly where the leak is before opening anything.
My Beaverton home's water bill jumped suddenly. Could that be a slab leak?
A sudden bill increase without any change in usage is one of the most reliable indicators of a hidden leak, and slab leaks are a common source in Beaverton’s 1970s and 1980s homes where original copper under the foundation is now 40 to 50 years old. Sunset confirms the source before recommending any slab work.
Does Sunset offer flat-rate pricing for leak detection?
Yes. Flat-rate pricing applies to all Sunset service work. The price is confirmed before any work begins.
