Slab Leak Repair

The slab leak occurs when there is a leak in one of the water lines positioned below the concrete floor of your home. How do you know you have a leak?

There are several alerts that should draw your attention:

• > Your water bill is higher than usual
• > You can suddenly hear water running without opening any water source
• > You detect wet planters near the house
• > You identified unexplained hot spots on the floor
• > You see water coming out below the water heater though the platform is dry
• > And the most obvious sign - water on your floor or carpets

Slab Leaks start as a result of a reaction between water and the copper pipes beneath your floor. When soft or bendable copper water pipes are placed under the concrete slab foundation, they enable water to enter the property and move through the house. At the beginning the pressure in the street level lines may be fine for the house pipes. But as they become old clogged pipes, the volume of water that can flow through the pipes decreases and the pressure increases. That’s when the troubles start.
