Slab Leak Repair

A slab leak is a break in a water line beneath a concrete foundation. Because the pipe is buried under the home, damage can continue for weeks before it becomes obvious. Over time, water that escapes can erode soil, crack flooring, and increase utility costs.

Landry Mechanical Inc., Plumbing, HVAC & Electric provides professional slab leak repair using precise detection methods and controlled repair techniques. Our goal is simple: find the leak quickly, fix it correctly, and protect your home’s structure.

If you suspect a hidden leak, schedule a repair visit online or call our team for an inspection.

Signs of a Leak Beneath the Foundation

Pipes under a slab rarely fail without warning. Small changes inside the home often point to a larger issue below the surface.

Changes in Water Pressure or Warm Floor Areas

A sudden drop in pressure throughout the house can signal a damaged main line. If a hot-water pipe is compromised, certain sections of the flooring may feel unusually warm.

Sound of Running Water

Hearing water movement when fixtures are off is a strong indicator of a sub-surface break. A faint hissing or steady flow noise may travel through the floor.

Cracks or Persistent Dampness

Moisture along floor seams, baseboards, or walls can indicate water migrating upward. In advanced cases, foundation cracks or lifted flooring may develop as soil beneath the slab shifts.

Our Slab Leak Repair Process

Repairing a pipe beneath concrete requires planning and accuracy. We focus on locating the exact failure point and resolving it with minimal disruption.

Leak Detection

We use acoustic listening equipment and thermal imaging to locate hidden leaks without unnecessary demolition. Once identified, we outline the repair options clearly before any work begins.

Direct Pipe Repair

If the damaged section is isolated, we access the area, remove the compromised pipe, and install durable replacement materials designed for underground use. The system is then pressure-tested to confirm the issue is resolved.

Pipe Rerouting

If multiple sections show wear or corrosion, rerouting may be the better long-term solution. A new line is installed along a safer, more accessible path, reducing the risk of future slab access.

After repairs, we can evaluate visible plumbing components to ensure the system is operating properly as a whole.
