One slow leak under a sink or behind a toilet can rot a floor and the framing beneath it before you ever notice. Built On Trust fixes leaks and handles plumbing repairs and fixture installation for homeowners in Raleigh and across Wake and Johnston Counties, and we repair the water damage too.
A plumbing repair often leaves damage behind. Because we are also carpenters and remodelers, we can replace the rotted subfloor, patch the drywall and finish the room in the same job.

Leaks and moisture in Raleigh homes
In our humid climate, moisture from a hidden leak has nowhere to go, so the damage spreads fast. The most common leak spots we see are toilets, kitchen sinks, showers and outdoor faucets. Soft floors around a toilet, stains on the ceiling below a bathroom, or a musty smell under the sink are early warnings. Fixing the leak promptly is always cheaper than rebuilding the floor later.
Why choose Built On Trust for plumbing repairs
A plumbing repair is only half the job if the water has already damaged the floor, wall or cabinet around it. We fix the leak and then repair the rotted subfloor, framing or drywall in the same visit, so you do not need to hire a second contractor. We also handle plumbing for bathroom and kitchen remodels, accessible bathroom upgrades and new fixtures. You get a clear written quote before any plumbing work starts.
We also explain what caused the leak and how to spot early warning signs, so small problems get caught before they turn into big repairs.

FAQ
Common Questions About Plumbing Repairs & Leak Fixes
How do I know if my toilet is leaking under the floor?
Look for a soft or spongy floor, a toilet that rocks, staining on the ceiling below, or a sewer smell. These usually mean the wax seal has failed and water is reaching the subfloor.
Can you fix the floor damaged by a leak?
Yes. We stop the leak, remove the rotted subfloor and framing, rebuild the floor and install new flooring.
Why does it smell musty under my kitchen sink?
A musty smell usually means a slow drip from the drain, supply line or dishwasher connection is keeping the cabinet floor wet. We find the leak, fix it and replace any rotted cabinet base or subfloor.
Can you make my bathroom safer for an older family member?
Yes. We add grab bars, comfort-height toilets and low-threshold or walk-in showers to make the bathroom easier and safer to use.
How can I tell if I have a hidden plumbing leak?
Watch for a higher water bill, a meter that moves when nothing is running, damp spots, musty smells or stains on ceilings and walls.
Do you replace outdoor faucets?
Yes. We replace leaking or broken outdoor faucets and can install frost-free hose bibs to help prevent freeze damage in winter.
