SLAB LEAK REPAIR
Repairing Foundation Pipe Leaks Throughout Rhode Island for 25+ Years
Slab leaks are leaks that occur within or under the foundations of houses. Because leaking water can eventually erode the foundation or allow excess water to pool underneath your home, they can cause serious damage if not repaired. Slab leaks often also cause lots of damage because they are hard to detect—many homeowners don’t deal with slab leaks until the damage is extensive and costly. However, even minor leaks can cause serious problems after an extended period.
Slab leaks form for the following reasons:
- Improperly installed pipes
- Cracks caused by high water pressure
- High mineral content in water
- Burst pipes caused by freezing
- Pipes produced from inadequate material

Signs of a slab leak include:
- Increased water bills: If you have not increased the use of your plumbing or water usage, you should have your home inspected for a leak underneath the slab.
- Water around or in your house: Be on the lookout for excess moisture around the floor of your home. Take note if there is water pooling in or flooding your yard.
- The sound of running water when no fixtures are being used: Sometimes it is possible to actually hear the water running beneath your home.
- Cracks in the walls, floors, or ceiling: If the foundation of your home has shifted enough to create cracks in the structure of your home, there is a good chance that your water lines have been cracked as well.
- Warm spots on the floor: If the hot water line has broken, this may lead to warm spots that you can feel. You should also notice your water heater is working non-stop.
- Humid rooms: Moisture entering the air from water leaks can make parts of the home feel humid. In this kind of environment, you may also notice mold beginning to grow.
