Expert slab leak detection & repair services for San Diego homes. From diagnosis through completion, we deliver professional workmanship with transparent pricing and honest recommendations.
San Diego's combination of hard water, copper supply lines, and concrete slab foundations creates ideal conditions for pinhole leaks. Electrolytic corrosion between copper and the concrete accelerates the process.
A hot water slab leak creates a noticeably warm spot on the floor above it. If your flooring feels warm in an unexpected area, a hot water supply line may be leaking beneath the slab.
A slab leak running 24/7 — even a small one — adds significantly to your monthly water bill. Comparing your bill to the same month last year can reveal a developing leak.
Slab leaks have three repair paths: spot repair through the slab, reroute the line through walls or attic, or full repipe above the slab. Each has trade-offs in cost, disruption, and long-term reliability.
We pressurize the hot and cold supply systems separately to confirm which system is leaking and measure the leak rate. This data determines urgency and repair scope.
Acoustic sensors amplify the sound of pressurized water escaping through copper. Combined with thermal imaging, we locate the leak to within inches through concrete.
We present all three repair options with honest cost/benefit analysis: spot repair (cheapest but doesn't prevent the next leak), reroute (moderate cost, avoids the slab), full repipe (highest cost, most comprehensive).
Whichever option you choose, we execute with minimal disruption. Spot repairs take a few hours. Reroutes take one day. Full repipes take 1-2 days.
After repair, we re-pressurize the system and verify zero pressure loss over a 30-minute test period. This confirms the repair is complete and no secondary leaks exist.
For spot repairs, we patch the concrete and coordinate with flooring contractors for surface restoration. We provide documentation and photos for insurance claims.
We start with a thorough evaluation of your existing system, identify the problem, and present clear options with honest pricing.
