Leaks are often hidden water wasters in your home, and finding and fixing them can be frustrating and expensive. The Southern Nevada Water Authority (SNWA) and Las Vegas Valley Water District (LVVWD) are here to assist. If you’re unsure where to begin, visit SNWA.com for helpful videos and tips on locating and repairing leaks, including how to check for toilet leaks and find your water shutoff valve.
If you've received a leak notification from your water provider, you may be eligible for a leak detection voucher worth up to $250 to help cover the cost of locating or repairing the leak with a certified SNWA Water Smart Plumber. LVVWD customers can also access up to $1,000 in financial assistance for leak repairs through the Leak Repair Reimbursement Program. Income-qualified customers may be eligible for additional funds.
