Leak Detection for Cerrillos
Cerrillos — Los Cerrillos — is a living piece of New Mexico history: an 1870s gold and silver mining town on the Turquoise Trail, where historic adobe and western buildings house residents, artists, and small businesses beneath the Cerrillos Hills. Plumbing in century-old structures is fragile by nature — and leaks hide exceptionally well in thick historic walls.
Small remote villages have a particular leak problem: many residents are part-time, and a leak can run for weeks before anyone notices. A burst pipe discovered on a monthly visit has already done its worst. That's why detection matters here — and why our 24/7 line exists for the moment of discovery, whenever it comes.
We treat Cerrillos' historic buildings with the respect they deserve: fully non-invasive diagnostics that find leaks without disturbing adobe, plaster, or original woodwork. The Turquoise Trail corridor — Cerrillos, Madrid, Galisteo — is a natural service route for us.

Mining-era buildings carry some of the oldest pipe in the county. Acoustic and thermal methods locate failures without touching historic fabric.

Leak Detection in Cerrillos — FAQs
My Cerrillos building is over 100 years old — can you work on it?
Yes — and non-invasive detection is ideal for historic structures. We locate leaks with acoustic, thermal, and moisture-mapping methods that never disturb adobe, plaster, or original woodwork.
I'm only there part-time. What should I do about leak risk?
Shut off the main water when you leave for extended periods, have someone check the property periodically, and consider a preventive plumbing survey. If you discover a problem on arrival, call us immediately — we're available 24/7.
Can old pipes even be tested?
Yes. Pressure testing and acoustic methods work on any pressurized system regardless of age. In fact, older systems benefit most from testing, since corrosion makes failures a matter of when, not if.
Do you also serve Madrid?
Yes — Madrid is just south on the Turquoise Trail and part of our regular corridor service, along with Galisteo.
