What This Involves

Slab Leak Detection done right

Slab leaks occur when a water line running beneath your home's foundation develops a leak, often due to pipe corrosion, ground shifting, or original installation issues. Because the leak is beneath concrete, it's rarely visible directly, but specialized detection equipment can pinpoint its location without breaking up the entire slab.

Detection without unnecessary slab demolition
Identification of pipe corrosion or shifting causes
Clear location pinpointing before any repair
Guidance on repair versus reroute options

Common Questions

Slab Leak Detection FAQs

What are the warning signs of a slab leak?+

A warm spot on the floor when it's a hot water line, an unexplained spike in your water bill, the sound of running water when everything is off, or cracks appearing in the slab or flooring.

Does fixing a slab leak always mean breaking up the floor?+

Not always. Depending on the leak's location and the pipe involved, a plumber may recommend rerouting the line above the slab instead of tunneling through the existing foundation.

What causes slab leaks in DeSoto County homes?+

Common causes include pipe corrosion over time, ground shifting related to soil conditions, and in some cases friction between the pipe and surrounding concrete during the original construction.
