Slab Leaks

Slab leaks are a common problem for homeowners in the Coachella Valley. If you have plumbing buried in your concrete slab foundation, as the majority of homes in the area do, you might be prone to a slab leak. A slab leak is a leak in the water pipes that run beneath your home, specifically the pipes buried below the concrete slab.

Slab leaks can cause major damage to your home if not addressed immediately. Sometimes it can be a simple fix, while other times you need to dig up the concrete to repair or replace the piping. No need to worry though! We are slab leak experts in the Coachella Valley! Not sure if you have a slab leak? Here are some common signs:

• High Water Bills
  Have you noticed a shift in your water bill? If it has continued to rise without increased usage, you could have a slab leak. Typically, slab leaks are hard to detect because they are hidden beneath your home’s foundation. A great indicator of a slab leak is excess water usage reflected on your bill due to a leaky pipe.
• Hot Spots On Your Floor
  Have you noticed concentrated hot spots on your home’s floor? This can be the result of a burst hot water pipe below your home. If you notice this, you should call a plumber to have a slab leak detection service performed to avoid further possible damage!
• Low Water Pressure
  Another typical sign of a slab leak is low water pressure throughout your home, which often indicates a leak. This loss of water pressure is often a result of water lost in your home’s plumbing system on its way to any faucet or tap in your home. 

 Discovering a slab leak can be frustrating and downright scary! It’s important to address the issue immediately! We know that water leaks can be hard to detect, but don’t worry! We’ll help you find and fix your leak quickly and efficiently.
