Slab Leak Detection and Repair
Slab leaks happen when water lines running under your home’s concrete foundation crack, corrode, or burst, allowing water to escape beneath the slab and damage your floors, walls, and structure. Common signs of a slab leak include warm spots on the floor, unexplained high water bills, low water pressure, damp or buckling flooring, or the sound of running water when no fixtures are on. Professional slab leak detection and repair uses specialized equipment to pinpoint hidden leaks, minimize demolition, and protect your home from mold, foundation issues, and costly structural repairs. If you suspect a slab leak, contact a licensed plumbing company for fast slab leak detection and slab leak repair so the problem is fixed before the damage spreads.
Spot Repair vs Reroute
Reroute
A complete reroute replaces the leaking underground line by running new water pipes through walls, ceilings, or attic spaces instead of under the slab. This option is often recommended when pipes are old, corroded, or have multiple leaks, helping prevent future slab leaks and reducing disruption to your foundation.
Spot Repair
Spot repair for a slab leak involves tunneling under the foundation or removing a section of concrete to access the damaged pipe and replace only the leaking area. This option is best when the leak is in a single, accessible location and the rest of the plumbing line is still in good shape.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does slab leak repair cost in Garland, TX?
Slab leak repair costs vary significantly depending on the leak location, pipe type, and repair method chosen. A spot repair is generally less expensive than a full reroute. We provide a clear quote after detection so you know the full cost before we start.
Can I stay in my home during slab leak repair?
In most cases, yes. The disruption is typically limited to the specific area of the repair. We will let you know in advance if there are any periods where water service will be interrupted.
Will my homeowner's insurance cover a slab leak?
Many homeowners insurance policies cover the cost of accessing the leak (breaking through the slab) but not the pipe repair itself. Coverage varies by policy. We recommend calling your insurance company as soon as you suspect a slab leak.
How long does slab leak repair take?
A straightforward spot repair can typically be completed in one day. Rerouting or more extensive work may take two to three days. We'll give you a realistic timeline during the estimate.
How do I know if the slab leak was fully repaired?
After completing the repair, we perform a pressure test to confirm the leak is resolved before we restore any concrete or finishes. You'll have confirmation before we leave.
