One of the issues with slab leaks is that they often go undiagnosed for a long time. That can lead to damage that you need to fix in addition to the plumbing. If you notice your water bill going up and don’t understand why, you may need to schedule slab leak detection. In some cases, your utility company may even contact you to alert you to unusually high water usage.
Not all issues that require slab leak repair in Rancho Mission Viejo will result in excessive water use. Many leaks can be rather minor, but they’re still serious due to damage over time. Some homeowners learn they have a slab leak when they find mold or mildew under their carpets or other flooring. The smell of the mold can lead them to that discovery. Another sign of a slab leak is water on the property. It can pool around the foundation as if you had a gutter problem. The water can also cause soft areas in the yard or even ponding water.
Slab leak detection begins with a visual inspection of the home and property. If we suspect a slab leak based on that inspection, we can perform more advanced testing. There are several options. Acoustic listening devices can help us pinpoint leaks by the sound they create. Infrared cameras and other thermal imaging equipment can identify leaks by the heat they create. Pressure testing can reveal leaks by loss of water pressure. We can also penetrate the slab and perform a camera inspection.
Timely slab leak detection and repair provides many benefits:
Avoid water damage
Lower your water bill
Prevent mildew and mold
Safeguard your home’s foundation
Protect your landscape and hardscapes
