Hear from Our Customers
You know that sinking feeling when you walk into a room and hear water dripping where it shouldn’t be. By then, the damage is already happening. Moen leak detectors change that equation completely.
These systems catch leaks the moment they start. Not hours later when you notice a stain on the ceiling. Not days later when your water bill spikes. Right when the first drop hits the sensor.
Your phone gets an alert immediately. You can respond before drywall gets soaked, before hardwood floors warp, before a small problem becomes a major headache. That’s the difference between a quick fix and a full restoration project.
We’ve been handling plumbing challenges in Kings Beach for years. We understand how Lake Tahoe’s climate affects your pipes, where leaks typically develop in local homes, and what works best in this area.
Our 4.7-star Google rating comes from 93 real customers who’ve experienced our approach firsthand. We show up when we say we will, explain what needs to happen, and stick to our pricing. Many customers tell us the final cost was actually less than our initial estimate.
When you need emergency service, we’re available 24/7. Because water doesn’t wait for business hours, and neither do we.
We start by walking through your property to identify the most vulnerable areas. Places where leaks typically start: near water heaters, under sinks, around washing machines, in basements or crawl spaces.
The Moen smart leak detectors get positioned in these key spots. Each sensor connects to your home’s Wi-Fi network and links to your smartphone through the Moen Smart Water Network app. We test every connection to make sure alerts reach you reliably.
Once everything’s connected, you’ll get real-time monitoring of your entire system. If any sensor detects moisture, you get an instant notification with the exact location. You’ll know immediately which area needs attention, so you can take action or call us for emergency service.

Moen leak detectors aren’t just basic water sensors. These are smart devices that integrate with your home’s systems and provide detailed monitoring capabilities.
Each detector includes temperature and humidity monitoring alongside leak detection. In Kings Beach’s varying climate conditions, this gives you a complete picture of what’s happening in vulnerable areas of your home. The battery life extends up to two years, and you’ll get low battery alerts well before replacement is needed.
The system works even when your internet goes down. Sensors store data locally and sync once connectivity returns. For vacation rental owners in Kings Beach, this reliability means you won’t miss critical alerts even during service interruptions that can happen in mountain areas.
Most installations take 2-3 hours depending on how many sensors you need and where they’re being placed. We’re not just sticking sensors on the floor and leaving.
We test each sensor’s Wi-Fi connection, make sure the app notifications are working on your phone, and walk you through how to use the system. You’ll know exactly how to check battery levels, adjust sensitivity settings, and what to do if you get an alert.
For larger properties or complex setups with multiple zones, installation might take longer. We’ll give you an accurate time estimate when we assess your specific situation.
Yes, Moen leak detectors work with any plumbing system. They’re monitoring for water where it shouldn’t be, not interfacing directly with your pipes or fixtures.
The sensors detect moisture on surfaces and send alerts through your Wi-Fi network. They don’t require any modifications to your existing plumbing. Whether you have copper pipes, PEX, or older galvanized lines, the detectors function the same way.
The only requirement is a stable Wi-Fi signal in the areas where sensors will be placed. We test signal strength during installation to ensure reliable communication with your phone.
You’ll receive an immediate push notification on your phone showing exactly which sensor detected water and where it’s located. The app gives you the specific room and sensor name, so you know precisely what area has the problem.
If you’re away and can’t respond immediately, you can call us for emergency service. We’re available 24/7 and can be at your property quickly to assess and address the situation. Many of our customers give us emergency contact authorization so we can respond immediately when they’re traveling.
The system also allows you to share access with trusted neighbors, property managers, or family members who can check on things if you’re not available.
Modern Moen leak detectors are designed to minimize false alarms through advanced sensing technology. They distinguish between actual water presence and temporary humidity changes or condensation.
You can adjust sensitivity settings through the app if you’re getting alerts you don’t need. For example, areas with higher humidity might need slightly less sensitive settings, while critical areas like near your water heater might warrant maximum sensitivity.
During installation, we help calibrate each sensor for its specific location and your preferences. Most customers find the default settings work well, but customization is available if needed.
The sensors themselves run on batteries, so they continue detecting leaks even when power is out. However, they need Wi-Fi to send notifications to your phone, so you won’t get alerts during internet outages.
Once power and internet return, the sensors sync any stored data and resume normal notification service. For extended outages, the sensors store information locally so you won’t lose monitoring data.
This is why we recommend checking sensors manually during extended power outages if you’re home, especially in areas prone to freezing pipes when heating systems aren’t running.
Professional installation typically costs $150-300 more than doing it yourself, but you’re getting more than just placement service. We assess your property’s specific risk areas, optimize sensor positioning, and ensure reliable connectivity.
DIY installations often miss critical placement opportunities or end up with connectivity issues that reduce system effectiveness. We’ve seen sensors placed in areas where they won’t detect leaks until significant damage has already occurred.
Our installation includes system testing, app setup, notification verification, and a walkthrough of all features. You’ll also have our support if you need adjustments or have questions about alerts later.
