Slab Leak Detection

Slab leak detection is a critical process aimed at identifying water leaks occurring beneath concrete slabs in residential or commercial buildings. These leaks, if left undetected, can lead to extensive damage, including structural issues and foundation instability. Detecting slab leaks typically involves a combination of visual inspection, advanced technology, and professional expertise. Plumbers utilize various tools and techniques, such as thermal imaging, ultrasonic devices, acoustic equipment, ground-penetrating radar (GPR), drone imaging, and video pipe inspection. Visual inspection serves as an initial step, allowing plumbers to identify visible signs of moisture or water seepage around the concrete slab. Pressure testing is another common method employed to pressurize the plumbing system and detect any drop in pressure, indicating the presence of a leak.
