Slab Leak Repair — Under the Foundation, Under Control

A slab leak occurs in the water or sewer pipes running beneath your home's concrete foundation. These leaks are invisible to the naked eye but can cause catastrophic damage — foundation erosion, structural cracking, mold growth, and water bills that skyrocket seemingly overnight.

Got Plumbing USA connects you with slab leak specialists who use non-invasive detection technology to locate the leak precisely, then present repair options tailored to your situation.

Signs of a Slab Leak

• Warm or hot spots on the floor
• Sound of running water when everything is off
• Unexplained high water bills
• Cracks in walls or flooring
• Mold or mildew near the foundation
• Damp carpet or warped flooring

Slab Leak Repair Options

• Spot repair — access the leak through the slab, repair, and patch. Best for a single leak in an accessible area.
• Reroute — abandon the leaking pipe and run a new line through the wall or ceiling. Avoids cutting the slab.
• Repipe — replace all under-slab pipes by rerouting through walls/attic. Best when multiple leaks or old pipe material indicate systemic issues.

Slab Leak Repair Cost

Slab leak detection costs $150–$600. Spot repair through the slab runs $500–$2,000. Rerouting a line costs $800–$3,000. Full under-slab repipe can cost $3,000–$8,000+. The best option depends on the number of leaks, pipe condition, and home construction.
