How We Fix Slab and Foundation Leaks

Signs You May Have a Slab Leak:
- Unusually High Water Bills – If your water bill spikes without a clear reason, like increased usage, it could mean a hidden slab leak is wasting water under your home. These leaks often go unnoticed, quietly driving up costs. Our team uses advanced tools to find and fix the leak quickly. This saves you money and prevents further damage to your foundation.
- Damp or Warm Spots on Your Floor – Wet, soggy, or unusually warm patches on your floor, especially in areas like bathrooms or kitchens, can signal a slab leak. Warm spots might mean a hot water line is leaking under the slab. We can pinpoint the exact location with our non-invasive cameras and repair it before it causes mold or structural issues. Don’t ignore these signs, as they often point to a serious problem.
- Low Water Pressure – If your faucets or shower suddenly have weak water flow, a slab leak could be reducing pressure by allowing water to escape under your foundation. This can happen when pipes crack or corrode over time. Acting quickly can prevent bigger plumbing issues down the line.
- Cracks in Floors or Walls – Small cracks appearing in your floors, walls, or foundation might indicate a slab leak shifting the soil beneath your home. Water from the leak can weaken the foundation, causing structural damage. Early repairs can save you from costly foundation work later.
- Strange Sounds from Pipes – Hearing running water, hissing, or gurgling sounds in your pipes when no faucets are on could mean a slab leak is letting water escape. These noises often come from water leaking under pressure beneath your home. We’ll fix it fast to stop the noise and protect your plumbing.
- Mold or Mildew Smells – A musty odor or visible mold growth in areas like under carpets or near baseboards can point to a slab leak causing hidden moisture buildup. This dampness creates a perfect spot for mold, which can harm your health and home. We’ll help keep your home safe and dry.
