How Do You Repair A Slab Leak?
With the soil here in Tampa Bay, the shifting of the foundation of your house can lead to the cracks and breaks in water pipes. Other causes of slab leaks may be due to corrosion or low-quality materials used during the initial installation.
When it comes to the slab leak, we will start our service by confirming the presence of a leak. We generally start by using a pressure gauge that will be connected to your faucet. We will then monitor the movement on our gauge and identify if the level of pressure is affected. After we successfully confirm the slab leak, we will then use state-of-the-art detection tools such as line locators and listening devices that will help us accurately determine the location of the leak and the magnitude of the problem.
Our slab leak repair services can then be conducted by creating a small opening in your slab. There are also some cases when we will recommend the rerouting of your water lines, especially if you want to prevent any damage to your expensive flooring materials.
