All water leaks hold the potential to cause serious structural damage to your home and are a waste of your money and a precious natural resource. So while all leaks are dangerous, they also fall into one of two categories. Overt leaks are the ones that are easily noticed. These can include:
The leaks that should be considered even more worrisome are the ones that are hidden. These can be in the walls, floors, or ceilings of your home or even under your slab foundation. These leaks are often hard to detect and should be addressed as soon as you have reason to believe that there is a leak.
When your home is built on a slab foundation, pipes are running under the concrete to carry water into your home. When any of these pipes are damaged, this issue is called a slab leak. Even a very tiny leak under the foundation of your home can cause severe damage to your home and could promote the growth of toxic black mold.
In most cases, you will not be sure that you have a slab leak until you contact the slab leak detection specialist in Boulder, Co at Flatirons Plumbing. It might be a high water bill or loss of water pressure that has caused your concern. Still, the only way to be sure it a professional evaluation of your home’s plumbing system. Our pros use the latest in leak detection technology to search for water leaks in a non-invasive manner. Our tools allow us to listen for the sound of running water under the foundation of your home rather than tearing holes in the concrete to visually inspect for signs of a leak. This process, along with the results from pressure testing, your piping allows us to locate any slab leaks under your home quickly.
Once a leak is located, our pros will explain to you the best method for repairing the issue. The location of the hole will often determine how it is best to make the repair. Leaks near the edge of your foundation can often be repaired by digging under the concrete. In other cases, we can reroute the pipe inside the walls or floor of your home to eliminate the leaking pipe. Our final option is to cut a hole in the concrete to repair the leak. But whichever method we use, rest assured, we will work carefully and respectfully to reduce the disruption in your home. And once we have finished, we will completely clean up our work area.
