Slab Leak

Professional Slab Leak Detection and Repair

Few plumbing problems are as serious—or as hidden—as a slab leak. Because these leaks occur in the water lines running beneath your home’s concrete foundation, they often go unnoticed until major damage has already been done. Left untreated, a slab leak can lead to structural issues, mold growth, higher utility bills, and even foundation cracks. Trying to ignore the problem only increases the risk of costly repairs down the road.

Using advanced technology, we locate leaks with precision and provide targeted solutions to stop water damage at its source. Unlike guesswork approaches, our methods minimize disruption while delivering long-lasting protection for your home.

What Is a Slab Leak?

A slab leak occurs when a water line running under your concrete foundation develops a crack, hole, or break. Because these pipes are buried, the problem often stays hidden until symptoms appear. Common causes include:

• Aging pipes – Older plumbing materials weaken over time.
  
• Pipe corrosion – Soil chemistry or water quality can deteriorate metal pipes.
  
• Shifting soil – Ground movement places stress on underground pipes.
  
• Poor installation – Improperly installed pipes may fail prematurely.
  
• High water pressure – Constant strain can wear down pipes and joints.
  

Without professional detection, slab leaks can remain hidden for months.

Signs You May Have a Slab Leak

Look for these warning signs that indicate a possible slab leak under your home:

1. Unexplained high water bills – Hidden leaks waste large amounts of water.
   
2. Warm spots on floors – A leaking hot water line beneath the slab.
   
3. Damp or wet flooring – Water seeping upward into carpets or wood.
   
4. Low water pressure – Reduced flow caused by leaking lines.
   
5. Mold or mildew odors – Excess moisture creating growth beneath flooring.
   
6. Cracks in walls or flooring – Foundation shifting due to water damage.
   

If you notice any of these symptoms, immediate slab leak inspection is critical.
