House Slab Water Leak Detection and Repair

Home slab leaks are easily some of the most challenging to identify and repair out of all possible water leaks. In most situations, these leaks happen when the pipes underneath your home’s concrete slab or basement floor spring a leak.

While it’s not always easy to spot a house slab leak, you may notice some of the following signs:

• Wet carpet, flooring, or concrete
• The sound of running water when toilets and faucets aren’t in use
• Unusually high water bills
• A musty odor in your basement
• Moldy or damp drywall on the lower floor of your home
• Visible foundation damage

Do you suspect a house slab water leak based on these signs? Contact an expert in residential leak detection services, such as Mr. Rooter Plumbing, immediately. Any delays may result in further water damage and, sometimes, even structural damage to your home foundation.

Our licensed and insured professionals can take these steps to address a possible water leak under a house slab:

Acoustic listening equipment can be an excellent detection method if you have a home slab leak or a water leak in your walls.

Do you suspect a pipe leak in your home? Ask our Mr. Rooter Plumbing team about our advanced video inspection equipment. We can use small cameras to peer inside your pipes and locate a leak. We can even identify their location based on how much cable we insert into your pipes.

We strive to keep disruption to your property to a minimum when detecting residential leaks. Soil probes can help with that. We use soil probe devices to listen for pressurized water escaping around water mains and sewer lines. This approach means we can keep disruption in your yard to a minimum while we detect and repair your leaky pipe.
