What Is a Slab Leak?
The term “slab leak” may not be something that you’re familiar with. Honestly, when most of our customers hear about a water leak, they automatically imagine a busted pipe spewing water across their bathroom or kitchen. Unfortunately, most water leaks are often much harder to detect. In fact, some of those water leaks may occur under the foundation of your home. A slab is the concrete foundation that your home rests on. In many cases, parts of your plumbing system are routed under that slab foundation. While that helps ensure that your plumbing system has an efficient design, it can lead to water leaks occurring under a concrete slab. These leaks are generally much harder to find and far more difficult to remedy.
How Are Slab Leaks Located?
-
Electronic Listening Equipment: When water is leaking from a pipe, there will be a noise that comes from the area of the leak. Depending on the size and location, it may be incredibly difficult to hear it, though. However, our team can use electronic listening equipment that can allow them to hear the sound of water and air coming out of a pipe, even if it’s buried beneath a slab or inside one of your walls.
-
Infrared Location Equipment: Infrared technology allows us to find the location of a hot water leak. When a water leak has occurred under the concrete slab that supports your home, our plumbers can use this technology to find the exact location of the leak by tracing the heat generated by the hot water.
-
Isolating and Pressure Testing Lines: Finally, our plumbers can isolate individual lines in your plumbing system and use pressure testing to determine which ones are experiencing leaks. Obviously, when a pipe has a leak in it, it loses pressure. Our pressure testing system allows us to quickly determine which line is at fault.
Our plumbers will make sure that you understand which one, if any, of these methods they are going to use to locate your water leak. We will never take any measures that aren’t necessary when locating a leak. Additionally, we will make sure that you understand which methods we think are necessary and why.
How Are Slab Leaks Repaired?
Due to the nature of slab leaks, repairing them can be difficult. After all, a slab leak occurs under the concrete slab that your home rests on. In most cases, our team will recommend that you choose one of two methods to repair your slab leak. First, we break the slab near the location of the leak and repair it at the source. Alternatively, we can reroute your plumbing system, cutting off the flow of water that is leaking under the slab. If you choose this method, the plumbing can be rerouted through your walls, removing the leaky pipe from the equation.
