Slab Leak Detection in Fruit Cove, FL

Do You Have a Slab Leak? Common Warning Signs

Detecting leaks early is critical to preventing major repairs. Call for a professional inspection immediately if you notice:

• An unexplained spike in your water bill.
• The sound of running water when all faucets are off.
• New cracks appearing in your walls, tile, or flooring.
• Persistent wet spots, warm spots, or unexplained moisture on your floors.
• A musty odor or visible mold or mildew indoors.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does slab leak detection take?

Most appointments take a few hours, depending on the size of your property and the complexity of the plumbing. We work efficiently to provide accurate answers with minimal impact on your day.

Will you have to break my concrete slab to find the leak?

No. Our non-invasive technology, such as acoustic sensors and thermal imaging, allows us to find the leak's exact location without any destructive digging or damage to your floors.

How accurate is your detection process?

Our technology and trained technicians allow us to pinpoint the location of leaks with high accuracy. This reduces unnecessary damage and makes planning for the actual repair easier and more cost-effective.

Can a small slab leak really damage my foundation?

Yes, absolutely. Over time, even a small, persistent leak can saturate and erode the soil supporting your foundation. This can cause the slab to shift or crack, leading to significant structural damage to your home.

Do I need to fix leaks quickly to comply with local rules?

Yes, Florida’s plumbing codes and local insurance requirements encourage addressing leaks quickly to prevent mold and structural damage. Our detailed reports provide the documentation you need to move forward with repairs.

If you suspect a foundation leak, don’t wait for the problem to get worse.
