A slab leak is one of the most serious plumbing issues a homeowner can face—and one of the most difficult to detect without the right equipment. At Delta Plumbing, Repipe and Drains, we specialize in non-invasive slab leak detection and expert repair services to identify the leak fast, protect your home, and prevent further damage.
Using state-of-the-art tools and years of hands-on experience, we locate water leaks beneath concrete foundations with precision and provide long-lasting repair solutions.
What Is a Slab Leak?
A slab leak is a water leak that occurs in the pipes located beneath the concrete foundation (or "slab") of your home. These leaks can occur in both hot and cold water lines and are often caused by:
- Pipe corrosion
- Poor installation
- Ground movement or soil shifts
- High water pressure or temperature fluctuations
- Aging plumbing materials
Because slab leaks are hidden, they often go unnoticed until water damage appears—or your water bill skyrockets.
Signs You Might Have a Slab Leak
Call Delta if you notice any of the following warning signs:
- Unexplained water bill increases
- Warm spots or damp areas on flooring
- Cracks in walls, floors, or foundation
- Sound of running water with no taps on
- Low water pressure throughout the house
- Mold or mildew smell in flooring or baseboards
- Water pooling outside near your slab
Early detection is key—slab leaks can lead to serious structural damage if ignored.
Our Slab Leak Detection Process
We combine advanced technology with expert training to locate the leak without unnecessary demolition. Our process includes:
- Initial Symptom Review – We listen to what you’ve experienced and inspect the affected areas.
- Electronic Leak Detection – Using acoustic sensors, thermal imaging, and pressure tests, we pinpoint the leak’s location.
- Diagnostic Confirmation – We double-check before any cutting or concrete removal.
- Repair Options Review – We explain your repair choices: direct access, reroute, or pipe lining (when possible).
Our goal is to minimize disruption and offer the most cost-effective solution based on your situation.
Slab Leak Repair Options
Depending on where and how severe the leak is, we may recommend:
- Direct Access Repair – Opening a small section of the slab to repair the pipe directly
- Pipe Rerouting – Rerouting water lines above the slab to bypass the damaged section
- Trenchless Pipe Lining – If conditions allow, we may reline the pipe from the inside using epoxy (see our trenchless lining service)
We’ll walk you through every option with clear pricing and zero pressure.
