Are you dealing with a slab leak at your home? A slab leak is one of the most difficult plumbing problems to detect and remedy. This kind of seepage can be a nightmare for homeowners. Thankfully, the industry leaders at Barlow Service Experts can save you from the headache and worry.
A slab leak occurs when a pipe ruptures underneath the concrete foundation of your home, driveway or pool deck. This type of leak is difficult to repair because in order for the damage to be reached, it requires that a professional break through the concrete slab to reach the pipe.
When you have a leak that’s hidden deep beneath solid stone at your residence, it can be hard to find. So how do you know when there’s a slab leak? Check your home for the following signs of a slab leak:
An easy way to confirm if water is escaping into or below your home is by running a water meter test. You’ll turn off every faucet and ensure there are no appliances using water, then you can go outside and check the meter. If the needle is still moving, there’s almost certainly a leak, and it’s time to contact the professionals.
A severe leak under a concrete slab is often frustrating. This is why it’s imperative to choose a professional. Not only can they offer you outstanding customer service and superior quality repairs, but they can back it up with years of dependable service and thousands of satisfied clients.
Don’t allow anyone to damage your property searching for the source of a leak; breaking into the concrete without first pinpointing the location of the damage is never acceptable. At Barlow Service Experts, we’ll pinpoint the damaged pipe with specialized thermal imaging and electromagnetic pipeline locators.
Using their extensive training, our experienced technicians limit the size of the entrance hole as much as possible, sometimes even minimizing the disruption of property to a single floor tile. This helps you save on the cost of labor and repairs.
Once the source of the slab leak is uncovered, there are several repair options we might use. Their effectiveness will vary by property and the severity of the damage:
