Understanding Slab Leak
Slab leaks are one of the most challenging water damage issues Florida homeowners face. These leaks occur in the water lines running beneath or within your home's concrete foundation, making them difficult to detect until significant damage has occurred.
In South Florida, slab leaks are particularly common due to several factors: the region's limestone foundation, soil shifting from seasonal moisture changes, and the corrosive nature of Florida's water on copper pipes. Many homes built in the 1970s-90s have copper pipes that are now reaching the end of their lifespan.
Because slab leaks are hidden beneath concrete, they often cause extensive damage before homeowners notice warning signs. Water can saturate subflooring, damage flooring materials, promote mold growth under carpets and flooring, and even compromise the home's structural integrity over time.
Detecting and addressing slab leaks requires specialized equipment and expertise. Our team uses advanced leak detection technology to pinpoint the exact location of leaks with minimal disruption to your home.
Why You Need to Act Fast
Slab leaks can waste thousands of gallons of water monthly while silently damaging your home. The longer a slab leak goes unrepaired, the more extensive the damage becomes—including potential foundation issues, widespread mold growth, and complete flooring replacement. Early detection saves significant repair costs.
