Slab Leak Detection
SoCal Repipes provides professional slab leak detection for homeowners experiencing hidden water leaks beneath concrete foundations. Using advanced electronic leak detection equipment, we accurately locate pressurized water leaks under slabs without unnecessary demolition.
Signs You May Have a Slab Leak
Slab leaks often go unnoticed until damage appears. Early detection prevents structural and flooring damage.
- Unexplained increase in water bills
- Warm spots on flooring
- Sound of running water when fixtures are off
- Cracks in flooring or foundation
- Low water pressure
- Moisture or mold odors indoors
If you notice any of these symptoms, professional slab leak detection is recommended.
Our Slab Leak Detection Process
We use specialized equipment designed to pinpoint the source of pressurized pipe leaks beneath concrete surfaces.
Electronic Leak Detection
Acoustic listening devices and electronic sensors are used to narrow the leak location within a focused radius beneath the slab.
Pressure Testing
We isolate hot and cold water systems to determine which line is losing pressure.
CO2 Line Pressurization
When leaks are not producing strong sound signals, carbon dioxide pressurization may be used to enhance detection accuracy.
Detection services identify leak location only. Repairs are quoted separately once the source is confirmed.
What Slab Leak Detection Does Not Include
- Swimming pool leaks
- Roof leaks
- Rainwater intrusion
- Window leaks
- Air conditioning condensation leaks
- Non pressurized drain line leaks
Our service focuses specifically on pressurized water lines beneath the foundation.
Why Accurate Slab Leak Detection Matters
- Prevents unnecessary concrete demolition
- Reduces repair scope
- Protects flooring and foundation integrity
- Provides clear repair direction
- Saves time and reduces overall repair costs
Accurate locating is the first step in resolving slab leaks correctly.
