It’s extremely likely that every homeowner will deal with a leaking pipe or two throughout the years. This simple problem comes with a simple fix. However, not all leaks are so easy to fix, let alone find. Slab leaks are easily one of the worst problems a homeowner can face. Luckily, the experts at Blanco AC, Electrical & Plumbing are ready to help by taking on the task of finding and repairing these complicated, destructive leaks.

What Is a Slab Leak?

Slab leaks are relatively self-explanatory. When the piping in your foundation slab begins leaking, homeowners deal with a slab leak. These leaks can cause a significant amount of damage to a home’s foundation and flooring if left unchecked. Not to mention, they’re difficult to repair because they’re encased in cement.

What Causes a Slab Leak?

Slab leaks can be caused by a variety of issues, from faulty installation to weakened water lines and corrosion in the pipes. One common cause is soil shifting under the foundation. Time and weather can sometimes cause the sediment underneath a home’s foundation to settle or shift, which puts strain on the foundation and can cause the pipes within to fracture or bust completely.

Signs You Have a Slab Leak

Slab leaks are notoriously difficult to detect before they begin causing damage, with good reason. They usually remain hidden until they’ve already become a bigger problem. However, recognizing the signs of a slab leak can help you spot the problem as fast as possible and minimize the damage it causes. Signs of a slab leak include:

• Wet carpet or warped hardwood flooring
• Hot spots on the floor
• Low water pressure
• Uncommonly high water bills
• Mold or mildew smell

These are all sure signs of a problem, and if you’re lucky, that problem will be a regular pipe leak. However, you should call a reliable plumbing company like Blanco AC immediately if you notice any of the signs listed above and tell them you suspect a slab leak.
