Do You Have a Leak?
Homes that sit on a slab may have underground plumbing pipes. Water leaking from an underground pipe can lead to damage that can be costly to repair. Leaks in an underground pipe will wash away soil and can cause the slab to sink.
Symptoms of Slab Leaks
One symptom of a slab leak is an increase in water usage or a water bill that is higher than normal. If a leak is not present anywhere in the home, then a water leak may be under the slab.
The sound or running water when no faucets are on is an indication of a leak. If there is no indication of a leak, such as a running toilet, then water may be leaking from an underground pipe.
Pets look for warmth and if they lay on a specific spot on the floor, then check for a warm spot. A spot on the floor that feels warm can indicate a leak in a hot water pipe.
Cracks on interior walls are a sign of increased pressure. This often occurs when the slab settles because of a pipe leak.
Leak Detection
Electronic amplification equipment is used to find the location of a slab leak. Leaking water can easily 
be heard with this equipment. This allows the plumber to find the location of the leak. The goal of leak detection is to pinpoint the source of the leak to minimize damage to the property. A leak can occur in a water pipe or sewer pipe that is buried under the slab.
Slab Leak Repair Options
The most common way to repair a slab leak is to perform a spot repair. Another option to fix slab leaks is to re-pipe or reroute the plumbing. The type of repair for a slab leak is based on the age of the piping and its condition. Pipes in good condition may require a spot repair. If the pipe is old and is not in very good condition, then re-piping may be necessary.
