Are you dealing with a slab leak at 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 Chief/Bauer Service Experts can save you from the headache and worry.
A slab leak occurs when a pipe ruptures beneath 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 locate the broken pipe.
When you have a leak that’s hidden deep beneath solid stone at your residence, it can be hard to find. So how can you tell? Check your home for the following signs of a slab leak:
One of the easier ways to find out if water is leaking inside or below your home is by utilizing the meter test. You’ll turn off every faucet 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.
A severe leak under a concrete slab is often frustrating. 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 back it up with years of dependable service and clear customer satisfaction.
Don’t allow anyone to damage your property searching for the source of a leak; breaking into the concrete without first pinpointing the location of the damage is never acceptable. At Chief/Bauer Service Experts, we’ll pinpoint the damaged pipe by using specialized thermal imaging and electromagnetic pipeline locators.
Using their extensive training, our team of repair technicians are able to utilize the smallest entrance hole possible, sometimes even minimizing the disruption of property to a single floor tile. The smaller the hole, the more you can save on the cost of labor and repairs.
Once the source of the slab leak is uncovered, there are several repair options we might use. Their effectiveness will vary by property and the severity of the damage:
With our flat-rate pricing, there are no hidden costs, and any additional expenses will be discussed with you so there are never any surprises. We also offer one-hour emergency service during normal business hours when scheduling permits.
