Service Overview
Emergency Leak Repair Backed by 65+ Years of Local Experience
Water leaking where it shouldn't is more than an inconvenience — it's a race against time. Within hours, a pipe leak can soak through drywall, warp flooring, breed mold, and drive up your water bill. Whether it's a slow drip you've suddenly noticed or water actively pouring from a pipe, the source needs to be located and stopped as quickly as possible. The longer a leak goes unaddressed, the more damage compounds — and the more expensive the repair becomes.
Lapin Services has been the trusted leak repair team in Central Florida since 1958. When you call (407) 326-3367, a real person picks up — day or night — assesses your situation, and dispatches a licensed technician right away. We don't just stop the immediate leak; we locate the source, diagnose any related issues, and make a lasting repair so you're not dealing with the same problem a week from now. With a 4.9-star rating across more than 1,000 reviews, we're the team Orlando homeowners and businesses already trust when things go wrong.
Problems We Solve
Common Emergency Leak Repair Problems We Fix
Here are the issues our team commonly finds and resolves during emergency leak repair calls across Central Florida.
Pinhole and Corroded Pipe Leaks
Older copper or galvanized pipes are prone to pinhole corrosion — small leaks that start slow but can become major failures without warning. These are often hidden inside walls or under floors, making early detection and professional repair critical before structural damage sets in.
Leaking Pipe Joints and Fittings
The joints and fittings that connect your plumbing system are common failure points, especially in older homes. A failed fitting can drip steadily behind walls or under cabinets for weeks before it's noticed. Our technicians locate the faulty connection and make a solid, code-compliant repair.
Under-Slab Leaks
When a water line runs beneath your concrete slab and begins to leak, the signs are often subtle at first — warm spots on your floor, an unexplained spike in your water bill, or damp carpet. Left unaddressed, slab leaks erode the foundation and cause serious structural damage. Lapin locates and repairs slab leaks before they become major problems.
Supply Line Failures
The flexible supply lines connecting your toilets, sinks, and appliances to your water supply can fail suddenly — and when they do, the result is often rapid flooding. A burst supply line in a bathroom or under a kitchen sink can release hundreds of gallons before it's discovered. Fast response is essential.
Leaking Water Main or Service Line
A leak in the main water line from the street to your home can cause yard flooding, a dramatic loss of pressure, and a water bill that doesn't match your usage. Water main leaks require prompt diagnosis and repair to prevent erosion, property damage, and ongoing waste.
When to Call
Signs Your Plumbing Emergency Needs Professional Attention
If you notice any of these warning signs, schedule emergency leak repair before the problem becomes more disruptive or expensive.
Visible Water or Unexplained Dampness
Water stains on ceilings, walls, or floors — especially without a clear cause — often indicate a hidden pipe leak. If you notice damp drywall, bubbling paint, or water pooling under a sink or vanity, a leak is likely already in progress and needs to be found immediately.
Your Water Bill Has Spiked Unexpectedly
A sudden, unexplained increase in your water bill is one of the most reliable indicators of a hidden leak. If your usage habits haven't changed but your bill has jumped, water is being lost somewhere in your system — often in a location that isn't immediately visible.
You Can Hear Running Water With Everything Off
If you can hear water moving through your walls or floors when all fixtures and appliances are turned off, that sound is escaping water. This is a clear sign of an active leak and warrants an immediate call to a plumber.
Low Water Pressure Throughout Your Home
A significant, unexplained drop in water pressure — especially at multiple fixtures simultaneously — can indicate that water is escaping from a breach in your supply lines rather than reaching your taps. This type of leak can be difficult to locate without professional detection equipment.
Mold, Mildew, or Musty Odors
Mold grows fast in the presence of moisture. If you're noticing musty odors, visible mold, or discoloration on surfaces in areas near plumbing, a slow leak may have been building behind the scenes for longer than you realize. Addressing the leak quickly limits the extent of remediation needed.

FAQs
Emergency Leak Repair FAQs
How quickly can Lapin Services respond to an emergency leak in Orlando?
We dispatch a licensed technician as soon as you call — 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. When you reach us at (407) 326-3367, you speak directly to a real person who assesses your situation and gets someone moving toward your home without delay. Response time depends on your location within Central Florida, but we always prioritize emergencies.
What should I do right now if I have a water leak?
If water is actively flowing, locate your main water shut-off valve and turn it off to stop further flooding. If the leak is under a sink or behind a toilet, use the local shut-off valve for that fixture. Avoid the affected area if water is near any electrical panels or outlets. Then call us at (407) 326-3367 — we can walk you through additional steps over the phone while a technician is on the way.
Can you find a leak if you don't know where it is?
Yes. Lapin Services has the equipment and experience to locate hidden leaks inside walls, under floors, and beneath concrete slabs. We use professional leak detection methods to pinpoint the source before making any repairs — so the fix addresses the actual problem, not just the visible symptom.
Will a small drip turn into a bigger problem if I wait?
Almost always, yes. Even a slow drip creates ongoing moisture damage inside walls and under floors, promotes mold growth, and can weaken structural materials over time. What starts as a minor repair often becomes a major one after weeks of undetected water exposure. Acting early almost always saves money.
Do you repair slab leaks?
Yes. Slab leaks — where a water line beneath your concrete foundation is leaking — are a specialty we handle. Signs include warm spots on your floor, damp carpet, low water pressure, or an unexplained rise in your water bill. Our technicians locate the leak and determine the most appropriate repair approach for your situation.
Is Lapin Services licensed for leak repair in Florida?
Yes. Lapin Services holds Florida Plumbing Contractor License CFC1428594. Our technicians are fully certified to diagnose and repair all types of plumbing leaks — including supply lines, drain lines, water mains, and slab leaks — and to handle permits and code compliance when required.
Do you handle emergency leak repair for commercial properties?
Absolutely. We respond to leak emergencies at restaurants, office buildings, retail centers, apartment communities, and other commercial properties throughout Central Florida. We understand that water damage in a commercial setting has immediate business consequences, and we prioritize getting you protected and back to normal as fast as possible.
Will you just patch the leak or perform a permanent fix?
Lapin Services is built on solving problems the right way. Our technicians locate the source, diagnose any related issues, and perform a lasting repair — not a temporary patch that fails again in a month. If additional work is needed, we’ll explain what and why before any decision is made. No surprises, no pressure.
