Yes. Straight Flush uses acoustic pinpointing and thermal imaging to confirm the exact leak location before any concrete is opened — that’s the standard diagnostic-first approach for this kind of work.
Once the leak is pinpointed, the repair options are explained clearly — reroute, spot repair, or repipe depending on the condition of the pipes — so the homeowner can make an informed decision. No demolition first.
