The work, as it actually looks.

No stock photos. Every image here is from a 360 Leak Finders job on the Kitsap Peninsula: the locating, the digging, the leaks we found, and the yards we put back.

Locating and the gear

The acoustic ground microphone, the Sewerin receiver, the mini excavator with our number on the boom. This is what finds the leak and what opens the ground.
