There’s nothing more invasive than water. It gets everywhere and it does damage fast. Here are some of the problems caused by slab leaks.
- Foundation damage – When water erodes the soil your foundation can shift and crack.
- Warped walls – water seeps into walls, causing them to warp. As your foundation shifts cracks appear in sheetrock.
- Mold – when surfaces stay damp, mold and mildew thrive. Exposure to mold can make you sick.
- Ruined floors – your carpet and your hardwood were meant to stay dry.
- Bad smells – your home might smell musty or, if the leak is in the sewage line, it might smell worse.
Unfortunately, the longer your pipes continue to leak, the more the water will damage.
