Safeguard Your Home’s Foundation

A slab leak—a leak occurring in the water lines beneath your home’s concrete foundation—is one of the most serious and elusive plumbing issues you can face. If ignored, it can lead to structural damage, mold growth, and skyrocketing water bills. ProSkill Services specializes in advanced slab leak detection and repair, ensuring you can address the problem at its source with minimal disruption.

Why Slab Leaks Happen

Pipe Corrosion: Older homes or those with certain pipe materials (like copper) can be prone to corrosion, particularly if the water is highly acidic or has varying pH levels.
Soil Shifts: Ground movement due to expansion or contraction can put stress on your pipes, eventually causing cracks or pinhole leaks.
Abrasion & Vibration: Pipes may vibrate against gravel or concrete during water flow, wearing down their protective outer layers over time.
High Water Pressure: Excessive pressure strains plumbing, raising the risk of leaks or burst lines.

Signs You May Have a Slab Leak

Unexplained Water Bills

Sudden or gradual spikes in usage cost without changes in your water habits.

Hot Spots on Floors

Warm patches may indicate a leak in the hot water line beneath your slab.

Mold or Mildew Odors

Hidden moisture fosters fungus growth in your flooring or walls.

Cracks in Walls or Foundation

Shifting or weakening in the foundation can manifest as visible cracks.

Sound of Running Water

A constant hissing or trickling sound even when all taps are off.

Advanced Detection Methods

Low Impact

At ProSkill Services, we use non-invasive techniques to minimize damage to your floors or foundation during the investigation:

Electronic Amplification

Highly sensitive listening devices can detect subtle water flow vibrations beneath concrete.

Thermal Imaging

Infrared cameras reveal temperature differences in the slab, highlighting potential hot water leaks or damp spots.

Pressure Testing

We isolate sections of pipe to pinpoint leaks by measuring pressure drops.

Repair Options

Direct Access Repair

For localized leaks, we may cut through the slab at the affected point, repair or replace the damaged pipe segment, then refill and reseal the concrete.

Pipe Rerouting

If multiple leaks or extensive corrosion are found, rerouting water lines around the slab—often through walls or the attic—may be more cost-effective and long-lasting.

Epoxy Pipe Lining

In some scenarios, an epoxy coating can seal minor cracks from within, though it’s not always viable for severe or multiple leaks.
