Do you have a slab leak in your home? A slab leak is one of the most difficult plumbing problems to detect and remedy. Trying to fix things on their own can be a nightmare for homeowners. Thankfully, the industry leaders at Matz-Rightway can spare you the headache.
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 find the affected pipe.
When you have a leak that’s hidden deep beneath solid stone at your residence, they can be very difficult to detect. So how can you tell? Check your home for the following signs of a slab leak:
A simple way to determine if there’s a leak in or below your home is by utilizing the meter test. Simply turn off all faucets and ensure there are no appliances using water, then you can go outside and check the meter. If the needle is still moving, you’re most likely dealing with a leak, and you should call a professional for emergency maintenance.
Slab leaks can be a major crisis. 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 prove it with years of dependable service and thousands of satisfied clients.
You shouldn’t let someone damage the property as they look for the source of a leak; breaking into the concrete without first pinpointing the location of the damage is never acceptable. At Matz-Rightway, we’ll pinpoint the damaged pipe by using cutting-edge 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. Limiting the damage ensures you save on the cost of labor and repairs.
After we have located the source of the leak, there are several repair options we might use. Their effectiveness will vary by property and the severity of the damage:
