Slab Leak Detection in Amarillo, TX
Detect and repair leaks under your foundation.
Slab leaks are among the most challenging and potentially damaging plumbing problems homeowners face. When a pipe leaks beneath your home's concrete foundation, it can go undetected while causing extensive damage. [COMPANY_NAME] specializes in slab leak detection in Amarillo, using advanced electronic and acoustic equipment to pinpoint leaks without unnecessary demolition. We then provide repair options that minimize disruption to your home.
Understanding Slab Leak Detection
Amarillo's expansive clay soil puts particular stress on foundations and the pipes running through them. Ground movement from wet/dry cycles can shift pipes and create leaks. Copper pipes can develop pinhole leaks from soil chemistry. Signs of a slab leak include unexpected increases in water bills, hot spots on floors, sounds of running water when nothing is on, cracks in walls or flooring, mold or mildew smells, and low water pressure. Left unaddressed, slab leaks cause foundation damage, mold growth, and structural problems.

How do you find a leak under concrete?
We use a combination of pressure testing, electronic detection that senses moisture through concrete, acoustic listening devices, and thermal imaging for hot water leaks.

Not necessarily. While some leaks require opening the slab, we often can reroute pipes through walls or attic, or use epoxy lining to repair pipes in place.
