What Causes Slab Leaks?
There are many possible reasons for slab leaks:
- The corrosion and degradation of old pipes
- Improperly installed or low-quality plumbing pipes
- Friction caused by concrete or gravel near pipes
- Excessive water pressure
- Foundation movement from earthquake, erosion, or flood
How We Fix Slab Leaks
Our licensed general plumbers use several methods to address slab leaks. We can typically mend minor leaks with epoxy pipe coating or line the pipe internally without excavation, performing trenchless pipe repairs. For moderate leaks, we may be able to perform spot repairs by removing and replacing damaged pipe sections. If you have multiple leaks or your leaking pipes are inaccessible, a home plumbing re-pipe may offer the most effective, permanent solution.
Why You Need a Professional to Repair Slab Leaks
Slab leak repair is not for amateurs. Improper repairs can worsen leaks, foundation damage, and structural damage. Our experienced plumbers can quickly and accurately assess pipe leak severity using the latest plumbing leak detection methods, including video pipe inspections and thermal imaging, to rapidly identify leaks without inflicting more damage. You can count on our friendly home plumbers to recommend the best slab leak repair method to meet your needs and provide lasting, code-compliant plumbing repairs.
