What Are Slab Leaks?

Slab leaks or foundation leaks occur beneath your home's concrete foundation. Slab foundations are most common in residential homes and commercial buildings.

Slab leaks happen when the pipe under the foundation breaks from corrosion, shifting soil, or excessive pressure. Because the pipes are hidden, identifying leaks is challenging, and most homeowners don't know there's a problem until it's too late.

How To Know You Need Slab Leak Repair

Because slab leaks are so destructive, it's vital to know the signs so you can call for repairs before it gets out of hand. 

Here's what to look for:

• Puddles or Damp Areas on Your Floor: When water leaks under the foundation, it typically rises and can seep through cracks in your flooring, particularly near the base of your walls or the floor's edges.
• Sudden Increase in Water Bills: If you notice your water bill has skyrocketed and you haven't changed your usage habits, it's probably due to an unseen water leak in your main water line or under the foundation.
• Low Water Pressure: Low water pressure happens for various reasons, including clogged aerators, mineral buildup, and leaks. If you've got low water pressure at multiple fixtures, call a plumber to identify the cause.
• Hot Spots: Hot water pipes are typically the culprits in a foundation leak. This is because they expand and contract, which can cause them to weaken and break. If you notice hot spots on your floor, it's probably a hot water pipe that's burst.
• Increased Mold & Mildew: Mold thrives in damp environments, and a slab leak creates the perfect storm for an outbreak. Be aware of sudden mold and mildew growth where you've never had it before, and call a plumber for help identifying the problem.
