Meet the Leak Detective Expert, Gus Ponstingl.

Gus officially launched as The Leak Detective in the fall of 2015, and has been helping people fix their leaks ever since. He has investigated hundreds of leaks, and many of those leaks were still occurring even after expensive drain tile systems were installed by so called "Water Intrusion Specialist" construction companies and contractors.

Gus possesses a broad range of site design, landscape and home construction experience. He has a Masters Degree in Architecture from UNL and began working in the Architecture field in 1991. He is currently an Architectural Intern. Gus began working at a Ross Civil Engineering in Lincoln in 2001 under a licensed Civil engineer. Gus specialized in storm water design and analysis. His work with large sites has given him a vast amount of experience with drainage and grading. Gus has recently owned and operated a Registered Civil Engineering company.

Gus' wide range of experience has helped him form a holistic and thorough approach to solving leaks and saving homeowners money.
