Slab Leak Repair in Orange City, FL

Slab Leak Experts in Orange City, FL

Homes are erected on concrete slabs that are poured in the property. Many home plumbing systems are built beneath these slabs. They are usually made of copper pipes and often are thought to be of high quality and very reliable. However, the potential to leak exists. Corrosion, abrasion, the shifting land, the city maintaining the purification system, can all cause slab leaks.

If you’re not sure if you have a slab leak at your hands here is a checklist of possible symptoms:

  • Mildew: The discovery of mildew or finding water beneath the floor can explain the cause of a slab leak. This also applies to cracked tiles and bubbles in linoleum floors.
  • Warm floor: If your floor seems warm in one spot, hot water may be leaking beneath the slab.
  • Low water pressure: Low water pressure in the home, even a slight lean in water line can cause a reduction in water pressure.
  • Wall Cracks: A crack in your home’s walls may be a red flag signaling a leak. This may eventually cause the slab to move and a leak will get worse.

Although these things seem difficult to fix, our plumbers will handle it in no time. Once a slab leak is diagnosed, there are a few solutions available. If a pipe is leaking, it may be accessed through the slab and then repaired. Many times, a new pipe is placed through the home’s framework, avoiding slab penetration or floor removal. Epoxy may be applied to the pipe to stop any future leaks.
