Slab Leak Detection & Repair in Plano
Helping Keep Your Home Safe from Water Damage
Water and sewer lines run within the walls of your home, under the ground outside, and even beneath your concrete foundation. When the pipes underneath your foundation begin leaking, we call this a slab leak or a foundation leak. While the leak itself may be easy to repair, in most cases, locating and accessing the pipe is another story altogether.
Once the location of the leak is determined, we will likely have to cut, chisel, and hammer our way through the concrete foundation to the pipes. A broken drain pipe under a slab can require careful attention from a team of professionals. Fortunately, our Plano slab leak plumbers at At-Ease Plumbing have 85 years of combined experience handling these types of leaks. We are experts in the detection and repair of all types of slab leaks.
