Is your water meter running or do you hear running water, even
when nothing is turned on?
You
may have a slab leak! The
question refers to a plumbing leak that is occurring under the foundation
of a home
or commercial
building on the pressure side or meter
side of the plumbing.
In this situation, the homeowner is facing major problems if
the leak is not isolated and repaired, because it can cause damage
to the entire foundation.
When a home is built on a concrete slab, the water lines are placed
under the cement and due to soil acidity the copper can leak. This
condition can lead to foundation problems, high water and electrical
bills and structural damage to your home. Fortunately most homeowner's
policies cover the cost of repairing a slab leak.
At Copper Canyon Plumbing and Leak Detection, our trained and experienced
leak detection experts have the latest tools which allow
them to quickly and
easily
pinpoint
the
source of
trouble. Contact us to help you identify a leak and a solution to the
problem.
Never allow a plumber into your home or business to repair
a leak under your
slab
if they
cannot
electronically
locate
the problem. Unless they just get lucky, they will cause a lot
of damage looking for the leak and dramatically increase the cost
of repair without increasing the likelihood of success.
