Sewer line issues under a slab can also mimic slab leak symptoms. We use high-resolution video cameras to inspect the interior of your drain lines, identifying cracks, blockages or separations.

Slab leaks can affect both freshwater supply lines and sewer drain pipes. Our detection services are equipped to identify both types of leaks, which present different challenges.

Slab Leak Reroutes in Vienna

Rerouting abandons the leaking line under the slab and runs new pipe through the walls or attic. It avoids breaking concrete and often costs less than direct access under finished floors. We typically use PEX for reroutes because it handles heat and resists hard-water corrosion. This option is popular when the slab is covered in tile or hardwood.

Cold Water Slab Leak Detection in Vienna, WV

Cold water slab leaks do not create warm spots, so they are more difficult to see. They often show up as a running water meter, damp carpet, a musty smell or water seeping at baseboards. We isolate the cold side and use acoustic equipment to listen for the leak through the slab. Line tracers map the pipe route so we know exactly where to listen.

Electronic Acoustic Leak Detection in Vienna

Our team uses electronic listening devices to pinpoint the exact location of a slab leak. These highly sensitive microphones can detect the faint sound of water escaping from a pressurized pipe under your foundation. This non-invasive method helps us avoid unnecessary concrete breaking, saving you time and money on repairs. It's particularly effective for copper and PEX lines commonly found in Vienna homes.
