Boerne Slab Leak Repair

Water & Slab Leaks in Boerne, Fair Oaks Ranch & Leon Springs TX

A slab leak occurs when the pipes running under and through the concrete foundation of a home are compromised and begin leaking water under the slab itself. This type of leak can cause the foundation to crack or heave or cause wet spots (with the presence of mold) and can occur on the slab or even rise up through the carpet and walls. Slab leaks are very serious and should be addressed immediately.

Plumbing lines buried beneath slabs are vulnerable to shifting soils. If the soil moves too much, plumbing pipes can develop leaks. A slow leak beneath a home can cause the soil to shift more, which can make the leak worse. The potential for increasing damage makes early leak detection and repair essential. Even the smallest of leaks can yield devastating results. A leak the size of a pinhead, for example, can waste 360,000 gallons per year, enough to fill 12,000 bathtubs to overflowing.

Some of the possible causes of a slab water leak are hard water (that can corrode the pipes), shifting foundations (which is a particular problem in parts of the Texas Hill Country) or inferior workmanship when the plumbing was initially installed.
