Causes of Slab Leaks
Plumbing pipes, including water and sewer lines, run under the slab of your home. A slab leak occurs when one of these pipes becomes damaged. Slab leaks can be caused by improper installation, soil shifting, pipe shifting, or pipe corrosion. Because the leak is under the concrete slab, they can be challenging to find.
Signs of a slab leak can include:
- Hearing sounds of running water
- Warm spots on the floor
- Wet spots on the floor or carpets
- Cracks in the foundation
- A musty odor
- Mold or mildew growth
- Water or flooding outside the house
- Unusually high water bills
